19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Chased home Ravishing Beauty here (soft) in June; 1lb lower today but that run has been followed by two disappointing efforts; the more rain to fall the better. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Won twice over 7f last November; comparable form when second at Carlisle (1m, soft) last month; not so good last time and she faces a stiff task at the weights; slower ground ideal too. |

Scored over C&D (soft) just under a year ago and has been in good form lately; close second off today's mark here (7.7f, soft) a week ago and also suited by good ground; likely contender again. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Handy sort who won twice here last month, taking his C&D record to 3-3; only beat one home at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) eight days ago, which leaves him with a bit to prove given he handles a soft surface on turf. |
14/1 |
|
9th 3 (5) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time AW winner who completed a double when battling well at Southwell (7f) last month; record of 0-14 on turf but he has plenty of placed form in this sphere and is only 2lb higher than last time; could be a big factor again and any rain would be a bonus. |
11/2 |
|
1st 4 (8) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Suited by this surface and his rivals never really got a look in when he made all here three weeks ago, taking his record to 2-2 over C&D; has gone back up 7lb but he's only just above his winning mark on Kempton AW last June and has another good run in him. |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 2-27 on turf, his last win coming at Beverley in September 2023 (1m, good); has run a few fair races since wind surgery in September last year; others look stronger. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
3-38 under rules and stuck on a losing run; was third over 1m at Beverley five days ago but he pulled himself into a clear lead; risky from a win perspective. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Dry since a C&D win two years ago and has been turned over as favourite no fewer than seven times in the interim, latterly behind Sunny Orange ten days ago; that race didn't pan out his way from a wide stall but there can only be so many excuses. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hold-up performer who has yet to hit top form since returning last month, but is 1lb lower than when last successful at Beverley (7f, good to firm) a year ago; has won around here (1m) and worth a second look. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hostage to fortune under his usual running style but defied trouble in running for both 7.5f wins here last year, one at this meeting off today's mark; should be coming to the boil after two staying-on efforts over that same C&D this term, and did win third time out in 2025; very interesting. |
5/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Two of his three wins last year were on fast ground over C&D; well beaten over C&D on belated reappearance two weeks ago; shpuld come on for that. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Course regular who has registered four wins and five places from 21 starts here, including when scoring over 8.5f in April; has proved his stamina for 1m2f since July and has soft ground form too; may well make an impact. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Off the mark for the year at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he has run several good races in defeat since; he should be in the thick of the action once more. |
9/2 |

5th 6 (1) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |

Four wins here and nearly made that five last month on two occasions, since when he's again gone close at Pontefract; likely contender off the same mark as for last two runs. |

29th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins came at around 1m on Tapeta last autumn but she's finished down the field in her last five runs; soft ground may have caused her downfall at Beverley last time but she needs to rediscover her spark back in this sphere. |
20/1 |

16th Jul 2024 Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |

Dual Tapeta winner last autumn, latterly off a 2lb lower mark, who ran fairly well back on turf after a break six weeks ago; there's nothing to suggest she wants soft ground though. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has run well in two of her last three races, last time dictating a modest pace at Doncaster (7f, good to firm); came up short there but has to be feared here. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Doubled her tally over C&D in June and was right back on song when close second at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month but has a point to prove after weakening quickly on AW a fortnight ago. |
16/1 |

8th 6 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Likes it here; came back to form last Wednesday at Lingfield (turf) but has little room for manoeuvre off this mark, albeit she'll be 1lb higher from the weekend; vulnerable to improvers. |
