30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran C&D scorer who slipped in the weights in the second half of last year and arrives in fine form; runner-up in 14-runner event here last month; merits serious consideration. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 (5) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Veteran who won this race last year and returned to form with a creditable second over C&D (Woodleigh fifth) 11 days ago; has possibilities off unchanged mark and he won't mind what the weather does. |
5/1 |

2nd 8 (6) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Veteran who gained most recently success in C&D contest (off 5lb higher) last May on second start of his 2025 campaign; reasonably interesting returned to this scenario with Thirsk reappearance under his belt. |

Two of his four wins have come over C&D and although his losing run is up to 12, he is 7lb lower than when last successful; one for the shortlist returned here. |

1st Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Form dipped at Redcar in June when last seen; has some respectable Newcastle form for current yard, notably a success off 2lb higher last December; interesting back at this venue. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

Not the best of strike-rates (3-34) and yet to win over 1m; fair run when fourth after a slow start over C&D last time (soft; just behind Young Fire); worth considering. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice from the front over C&D this winter; 4lb higher than for his last win and he's never defied a mark this lofty, but the promising Harry Vigors takes off 7lb and he may make a bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who scored over C&D last month but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable in both runs since; looks weighted near his best and others are more persuasive. |

3rd 5 (8) |

2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable effort when beaten 1l over C&D in May but his overall profile is patchy and today's cheekpieces didn't seem to work when used for the first time 34 days ago. |
25/1 |

29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well at Thirsk 12 days ago, finishing close up in fourth (6f, good to firm; Hurstwood second); new cheekpieces can help and he's one to consider, especially with rain in his favour. |

Winner at Wetherby in April 2025 (7f, good to firm) and some fair runs since; hasn't been in much form on the AW this year and perhaps best watched for now. |
33/1 |

7th 13 (7) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Triple C&D winner but he's finished in rear in his last three runs and and his last win was 12 months ago; one of three runners for the yard and he needs to turn things around. |

8th 4 (2) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

A three-time C&D scorer but he arrives out of sorts, beating only one in classified event over C&D 40 days ago; he needs this change of headgear to spark a resurgence. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins in 2024, one of them here (8.3f, good to soft); not at his best at Musselburgh 11 days ago but he's slipped to a good mark and this is uncompetitive; solid candidate. |
3/1 |

10th 5 (3) |

Has finished close up when fourth/fifth the last twice (8.3f/1m2f, good to firm) and he was on the scoresheet here (1m1f, good) last July; won on good to soft ground ten days later; every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

9st 7lb |
Dual AW winner who is 0-13 on turf, but she returned from a break with a near-miss at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; only 1lb higher here and is a big player if she can back that up. |

Not built on promising Ayr debut in September 2022 in just four starts since, though probably needed the run when fourth of seven on this month's Doncaster return (6f, good to soft); 1m should be within range and still unexposed. |
