25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner who ran her best race of the year so far when fourth of eight back here (good) three weeks ago; another 3lb drop since then puts her 7lb below her last winning mark; respected. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Effective on fast and soft ground; well handicapped on her two 5f wins last summer but she's been out of sorts in four runs this season; has won here in the past but she needs to turn things around back at this track. |
10/1 |

4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |

Won twice last summer and is 1lb lower than for the latest, but she is yet to get going in three starts this season (underwent wind surgery before latest outing); needs a resurgence. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
C&D scorer but he failed to build on Ripon reappearance fourth when only fifth of seven in 5f Catterick handicap five days ago; he's not the easiest to catch right. |
10/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Four wins, the latest on reappearance at Ayr last May (5f, good); fair fourth on last month's Ripon reappearance (5f, good), although that form hasn't worked out; good second to Equity Law here last September and, with his stable going well, he's worth considering. |
9/2 |

4th 1 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

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. |

9st 1lb |
Fair and consistent for Ray Craggs in 2024; off 20 months before coming in last of nine, on sole outing for David Thompson, over 6f here last month; has rejoined his former yard with lots to find. |
25/1 |

9th 9 (2) |
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. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Quirky customer with two C&D wins on his record and now 6lb lower than for last July's success; running himself into form this year but his stable look to hold stronger claims elsewhere. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Does plenty wrong during his races but it hasn't stopped him from winning seven times, two of them over C&D; running himself back into form this year but others appeal more. |
12/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
No stranger to the Ayr winners' enclosure, winning five at this track (5f-7f), including this race two years ago; has struggled for form in two 5f spins at Musselburgh this year, which makes him hard to fancy; on the plus side, the handicapper is beginning to give him a chance. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
In good form on AW over the winter, winning at Wolverhampton (6f) and Lingfield (7f); 1lb lower than for the latter win but she hasn't maintained her form back on turf this summer, including behind Velvet Rhythm over C&D 16 days ago. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

8/1 |

8th 5 (6) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Two narrow AW wins at 6f and 7f over the winter months; never involved back on turf at Thirsk (7f, good) recently and although this is less competitive her stamina for a tough 7f like this still has to be proved. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Latest C&D second on good to firm shows he's in reasonable form; ought to be in the mix again at a course which suits (four wins) but all nine career successes have come on good or softer. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Has won twice on good ground but other seven wins have been on good to soft/soft; had his ground when third at Nottingham two runs back, and not beaten far when seventh at Thirsk last week (5f, good); on a good mark but needs rain not sun. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Record of 0-9 this season but she's much better off with Jannas Journey on C&D running four starts ago; successful off higher marks in this race for the last two years; very attractively weighted and warrants respect. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back. |

Some good runs in defeat this April-July and he's well treated on that form; however, this 8yo wasn't performing at the same level in the second half of the summer and needs to raise his game back from a two-month break. |

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. |

Three course wins early in the year and he is now 3lb lower than for the latest of them; dropped down the weights on the back of some disappointing turf runs and he should be a more potent force back under these conditions. |
