20th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Won over C&D (good to soft) last July but he's lost his way and has been out of sorts this season; now 17lb lower than for that last win but the veteran has a lot to prove. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Four-time course winner who has tumbled down the weights and runs here for the first time this season; however, this 11yo has been struggling this year and a major turnaround is required. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Over three years since his sole success (5f, good to yielding); first encouragement for some time when in midfield at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago; stiffer stamina test not sure to suit. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Banged at the door through the 2024 campaign but last season was disappointing and no sign of the tide turning this year, including when standing still in the stalls at Redcar in July; a hood goes back on today but he has to prove his stamina and others are much more persuasive. |
33/1 |
|
6th 5 (3) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Still seeking a first handicap success; huge chance on his 2024 form but he went the wrong way last season and his return to action at Doncaster last month was uninspiring; he has had a wind operation, his second, since but there are risks attached. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Good course record, with four wins (three at 7f) and a second from eight starts; caught wide when he ran poorly over C&D last month but it was a step back in the right direction when fifth at Thirsk a fortnight ago, and he's down to the mark he won a 6f course handicap from in May; draw not overly helpful but he's considered. |
7/1 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
A three-time 6f/7f winner in the first half of 2026; caught wide throughout when last of nine in 7f Catterick handicap four weeks ago and no surprise to see him bounce back here. |
11/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three course wins in the first half of the year, the latest (6f, good) off a 3lb lower mark; his form has dipped on his last two starts but a revival wouldn't be a great surprise. |

9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won a 7f AW handicap in February; two solid AW runs (6f) in July and he should go well back on turf; rain won't hurt his chance. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner who showed more back on Tapeta last time, when drawn wide and inclined to hang right at Wolverhampton; remains pretty consistent and is on a competitive mark, so there are positives. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (11) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has nine career wins, the most recent at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February off 2lb lower; should be better for his fourth of eight at Lingfield (6f, soft) last month and has won off 8lb higher when in his prime; not out of this. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Kicks off for third trainer with a lot of racing under his belt (4-46); absent since April when well held on the AW, but this mark is workable and Billy Loughnane is booked. |
16/1 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Stable yet to get rolling for the year but he was a bright spot when springing a surprise over C&D off 3lb lower in February; not entirely convinced over 7f a couple of times since and holds each-way claims. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
6f winner here on his penultimate start and he didn't fail through a lack of stamina when third at Chelmsford 13 days ago; he was well positioned in a race where nothing challenged from the rear there though and others appeal more for win purposes. |

4th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Gives her all and wasn't beaten far when fourth to Rock Melody over C&D (soft) in August; should be thereabouts again, although she holds no secrets from the handicapper and others appeal more for win purposes. |
6/1 |

4th 4 (10) |
13th Aug 2024 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Very consistent in defeat earlier in the season (on ground ranging from good through to heavy) and she was beaten just over 1l when fourth of six over C&D (good to soft) last time; has won three times over C&D and every chance she'll be in the mix; the blinkers adopted last time are left off. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Regressive 8yo who is yet to add to his Listed AW success in February 2021; did nothing wrong when second under Sam Feilden at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) last month but the forecast rain is unlikely to aid his cause here; younger rivals are preferred. |
9/1 |

2nd 2 (10) |
20th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Well treated on AW form and soft ground was a possible excuse returned to turf last time; has the ability to win this race but he's on a very long losing run. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three C&D runs, winning two (soft and good to firm) and a solid third of eight last month; made the running and faded at Chester since but he's better judged on the earlier runs; on the premises. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Notched a fourth success of 2026 at Salisbury (6f) in August and posted another good effort with third of eight there (6f) eight days ago; handles this track well and has won on soft ground so must enter calculations. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins this year include two over C&D (soft/good to firm), which makes him 2-2 here; normally reliable sort who can be excused his sixth at Windsor last time, when he was one of two that pursued a fruitless exploration of the far rail; could well bounce back. |

24th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
4-29 on turf and although he hasn't won on genuine soft ground he again showed he acts on it when second at Bath (5.7f) latest; each-way player. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
21st Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has patchy record but he won on fast ground at Windsor (5f) in July and was beaten less than 2l on soft at Redcar (fourth of 11) last time; seems tactically versatile and he's not ruled out on this drop back on grade. |
13/2 |
|
7 (10) |
5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dropped away in the final furlong in the race won Our Absent Friends at Ripon last week; Paul Mulrennan is a good booking (close fourth on him at Newmarket 11 months ago) but others appeal more. |
