2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer; well handicapped on his 2024 form but he was only seen twice last year and finished down the field on both occasions; enough to prove back from a break. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Beaten 1l into fourth in this race 12 months ago (off this mark); absent until finishing down the field at York last week; due to be 3lb lower in the future and he needs to have come on a good deal in a short space of time. |
20/1 |

16th 5 (12) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
A wind operation in October 2023 proved successful and he had some smart sprint form last year, notably a narrow win at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good; made all); ran well off this mark at Southwell when last seen 356 days ago; upset in the stalls and withdrawn at Goodwood in May; this is a tough race in which to make his return. |

Close second at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February and likewise at Nottingham (5f, good) last month; however, soundly beaten on his three starts since and he needs to raise his game. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Close fourth in a division of this contest last year but up and down since and his last two runs have been poor; dangerously well handicapped but opposable on balance. |

8th 4 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Nine-time winner who scored off 6lb higher at Catterick last May; has been up and down since then but he finished well to go close over C&D (good) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and it would be positive if rain arrives. |

8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Handles most ground but all of his four wins have been on good to firm; last success was at Ayr (5f) 12 months ago but that was on his reappearance and he's only 1lb higher for today's return; needs a close look after 221 days off. |
6/1 |

29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Winning reappearance at Ayr (5f) in May and returned to form with a close call at Catterick 20 days ago; however, inconclusive AW form from just two attempts and offputting that he hasn't run on sand since late 2023. |
6/1 |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Made a winning return to action at Ayr in May but two runs since have been disappointing, even allowing for the higher grade; needs a full revival but he has run well here in the past. |

29th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer; three wins at Catterick in 2022 but she hasn't added to them since; recorded an RPR of 79 on her seasonal return when rated 14lb higher; although she's gone backwards since, she had a wind op last month and wasn't seen to best effect at Catterick 19 days ago; not discounted dropping into a 0-60. |

10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Three C&D wins to her name from six runs; the return here should help, back from wind surgery, and while Birkenhead looks her yard's best chance a revival wouldn't surprise off a career-low mark. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
All six wins over 5f; also second over 5f here (good) in August of 2024 but hasn't been seen since a poor run at Beverley later that month; previously trained by his owner; can only really watch after such a long time off. |
25/1 |

25th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
It's now 12 starts since his last victory but he comes here on the back of a good second of nine in 5f Thirsk handicap nine days ago; this reliable C&D winner ought to be in the shake-up. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 6 (3) |
16th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Yet to win this year but retains plenty of ability; second at Thirsk on three occasions, two this year; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |

9st 9lb |
Drawn a blank this year but he has dropped a long way in the weights and is now eligible for Class 6 company for the first time; ran okay over C&D last month and the return of cheekpieces will help; considered. |

9st 4lb |
He's having a mixed season and hasn't looked ready to pounce since a good Ripon run (5f) in July; needs a turnaround but he wasn't far away on his latest C&D start in March and is on a much lower mark now. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
25-1 winner of a division of this race 12 months ago; arrives in form following a success at Southwell and a creditable fourth of eight at Ripon; should be in the thick of things again. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Placed three times on AW over the winter before resuming winning ways over 5f at Southwell 18 days ago; hasn't been successful above a mark of 76 so a career best will be needed if he's to follow up. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four C&D wins but the latest was back in 2024 and he's struggled a bit here off this sort of mark in recent attempts; has been running well on turf of late, though, and he shouldn't be that far away. |

2nd 7 (1) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |

Made all to win a Class 6 handicap over C&D last month; not so good on his next two starts but returned to his recent best when a close second at Beverley ten days ago; runs off the same mark today and he's ideally drawn to attack; should go well. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |

Comfortably saw off six rivals at Lingfield (5f AW) in March but went up 7lb for that and then failed to figure at Wolverhampton and Chepstow; had some traffic issues on his stable debut last time but this is a deeper race and others are preferred. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner, the latest when scoring comfortably over 5f last month; easy wins in successive days in early September (good to firm and heavy); now 24lb higher than when starting his winning spree and he will require another career best to overcome latest 11lb rise; certainly can't be ignored though. |

Made it 3-3 since the blinkers were added when comfortably accounting for his two rivals over Brighton's extended 5f yesterday (good to firm); carries a double penalty here but he's fine on slow ground and couldn't be in better form. |
