16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won a Thirsk handicap for Mark Walford in June 2024 (1m, good to firm); lightly raced since, but was a good third at Leicester on stable debut this year (1m, good to firm); lesser run on AW latest; place chance. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
A fair 1m winner for Mark Walford who wasn't discredited for his new yard when third of six in 1m handicap at Leicester in June; not ruled out after a break. |

All three of his wins have been over 1m, the most recent on debut for Mark Walford off 3lb higher at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last June; drops back to this trip for another new yard after two below-par efforts this year. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
All wins at 7f and his free-going ways leave him vulnerable at a mile; Musselburgh success in April seems a distant memory now. |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Kickstarted the season with a win at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April but he's been struggling for form in recent starts and now switches back to AW (0-9) on his first start for two months. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Three-time Musselburgh winner (1m-1m1f; beat Tacitus by a neck last August); mostly struggling this season, albeit did shape a bit better when fifth (beaten 2l) to Zumaaty and Temper Trap at Hamilton last week; stablemate of Onthebunny. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |

Two-time course winner who has run the odd fair race this season but this 10yo is 0-11 in 2024 and has been soundly beaten the last twice. |

14th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran with nine wins to his name, latest of them over C&D (patiently ridden; led near finish) in August 2023, but 0-10 this season and he was well held on his most recent outing. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Blows hot and cold but she is capable at this level and her latest C&D third wasn't a bad effort; shouldn't be far away if on a going day. |
7/1 |

3rd 4 (2) |
28th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Career win number five at Ffos Las in July (1m, good) but lesser runs have followed and she's hard to predict. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Gained a first success of 2026 at Ffos Las (1m) in July but she turned in a poor effort when beating just two in 1m Southwell handicap following month; needs to bounce back. |

17th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has somewhat lacked consistency since his productive spell in early 2025; no certainty to give his running but is well treated assuming this proves one of his better days. |
20/1 |

6th 7 (4) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
A four-time 7f/1m winner in 2025; in decent form in the spring but this C&D scorer needs to hit the ground running after a four-month absence. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (1) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Tapeta specialist who returned from a short break with an eye-catching third at Newcastle (1m) two weeks ago; has claims if he can back that up, but he's 0-11 on turf and has had only one run in this sphere in his last 14 starts; mixed messages. |

15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
9lb lower than when beaten a head over C&D in February and last month's fourth of 14 back here (just behind Mr Heinz) was another good effort; just 1-21, but shortlist material on the pick of his form; blinkers return. |
6/1 |

12th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

10th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Six of his seven wins have been on AW and yet to win beyond 8.5f; second of 11 at Pontefract (1m, good) ten days ago where he stayed on to suggest this longer trip should suit. |

10th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

2nd 3 (7) |
30th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Probably better on the AW but won on turf for David O'Meara in July 2021 (6f, good); good second over 1m at Newcastle two runs back and not beaten far when seventh of 13 at Thirsk last week (7f, good to firm). |
