12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Has won on good to soft; seen in best light when impressive in a similar race at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) in August; had an off day next time and she lacked the pace to get involved at Ayr since (extended 5f; respectable fourth) but returning to 6f with a stiff finish can suit; solid. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Never better than when coming clear for 6f Listed win at Pontefract in August (good to firm; Rage Of Bamby over 4l back in fourth) but she was a different filly when dropping right out at York since (6f, good to soft; had won a big handicap on that ground in June); needs quick about-face. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Smart in his prime and a multiple winner over the years but became disappointing after last season's winning reappearance and was last of 20 when back in action at York in May; needs to turn things around. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Tremendous stable servant over the years with 17 wins; understandably not the force of old but won on 2025 reappearance (off 6lb higher) and has a strong York record (6-18). |

15th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Useful on his day; however, on a three-year losing spell and current mark reflects a decline in his form since last July; the betting may offer further guidance with Ripon reappearance under his belt. |

17th Apr 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Formerly smart handicapper; 15 wins from 94 starts including two victories over C&D; hasn't won anywhere since 2022 and lost his way last year, but did go close here on 2024 reappearance; could bounce back; goes on any ground. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Prolific winner who arrives seeking a hat-trick after winning back-to-back at Hamilton (both 6f, soft) last month; usually races prominently; up another 4lb but will be a big player if repeating his latest effort. |
10/1 |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
At his best over 6f on soft ground and made the most of optimum conditions here last week, making all; Rebecca Burley's claim erases the penalty and he should threaten again. |
7/2 |

1st 3 (1) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run goes back to May 2025 but 6f on soft ground are his ideal conditions and he's now 9lb lower than his last winning mark; interesting. |

23rd Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Tumbled down the weights last year before undergoing wind surgery; was inclined to pull hard and didn't see it out on his Tapeta comeback, and the suspicion is he'll be back at some point. |

2nd 6 (7) |
17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Course winner as 2yo; useful type who is 2lb lower than for his Ayr win (6f, good) in July but he hasn't been in the same form of late and it's hard to argue that a return to form is imminent. |
16/1 |
|
6th 8 (4) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Only 2lb higher than when beating 16 rivals in a 6f handicap at Ayr in July; struggled since but the ability is there if this is a going day. |
12/1 |
|
12th 13 (10) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f) in July but well below par both runs since and he failed to beat a rival in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last time; needs to take a major step forward. |
33/1 |
