2nd 2 (1) |
16th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner who made all for a narrow success at Ripon in August but he's not easy to predict and was a remote third at Catterick two weeks ago; others are more persuasive. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
It was a seventh success when making all and just holding on at Ripon (good to firm) in July; only 1l behind Albegone at Musselburgh (also 5f, good) last month; bit below that form at Redcar a fortnight ago but not hard to see a bold bid under star amateur Henry Callan. |
4/1 |

8th 13 (12) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Gained a first win of 2026 at Ripon (5f) in July and backed it up with a solid third of six to Albegone at Musselburgh (5f) three weeks ago; also took this in 2024 so he's a likely player. |

24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Handicapper had his say after an easy Nottingham win (2-2 there) early last month and this 5yo has been held since; often dropped in (may well be again from a wide stall) and would then be reliant on the race setting up for him, as well as some luck. |
12/1 |

4th 9 (4) |
9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Won at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) in July but that wasn't much of a race and he has not repeated the form; now wears cheekpieces; others preferred. |
14/1 |

4 (2) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Gained his fourth career success at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) in July and 6f will have been too far for him at York next time; however, he's still 7lb higher than for the win and others make more obvious appeal. |

Two-time winner on turf; unplaced in all six AW starts but there has been some promise on Tapeta at Newcastle; others more persuasive this time. |

8th Nov 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Infrequent winner and unplaced in five AW runs; he hasn't run too badly over C&D the last twice, however, and Paul Mulrennan is back in the saddle tonight. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Should be making a big impact off this mark and although he has been a shade underwhelming on turf this summer he has too much ability to leave out of calculations at this level. |

5f wins at Ayr and Wolverhampton this summer; respectable midfield finish at Musselburgh two weeks ago; patchy record at Newcastle but this is not a strong race. |

6th 7 (11) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

Dual C&D winner; down the field in this race the last two years but there are reasons to expect better this time, with recent form figures featuring two wins (turf/AW). |
13/2 |

1st 6 (5) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Better strike-rate on turf than AW and beaten in a C&D classified on latest AW start; two midfield finishes on turf have followed, the latest on Monday, and others appeal more for win purposes. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years, adding two AW handicaps to his haul in February; arrives in good form but he was no match for Imperial Guard here last week and the turnaround in the weights may be insufficient. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but placed twice since returned to 7f, latterly in C&D (good) contest won by Jkr Cobbler three weeks ago; 2lb higher today but probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |

Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but looked back in good nick when close third at Musselburgh (7f, good; just behind Monhammer) on Tuesday and remains on a good mark; shortlisted. |

20th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Finished third behind Kyber Crystal in this race in 2024; off the mark for the year when winning at Carlisle (5f, good) last month and he still looked in top form when third at Musselburgh last week, having to wait for a gap as the race unfolded in front of him; handles good to soft but a faster surface would probably be ideal. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 8 (6) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran creditably on Wednesday when bidding for a Carlisle double; remains in form and is effective in this different scenario, being a dual C&D scorer; not dismissed. |
8/1 |
|
5th 11 (12) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Had a tongue-tie on for the first time when seventh at Musselburgh two starts back and had cheekpieces added when winning over this C&D three days later, coming home strongly from well off the pace to get the better of Cotai Starlight; shortlisted off this 3lb higher mark. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Without a win since May 2023 when previously trained by this yard and he's since dropped a long way in the weights; below his best at Catterick (6f, soft; first-time visor) a week ago and needs to get back on track. |
16/1 |

6th 8 (9) |

Course record of 3-9 includes a nose defeat of Quercus off topweight in this race in 2022 (good to firm); 5lb wrong this time and effectiveness on soft or worse untested since September 2021; debuted visor no certainty to inspire, all seven wins having been gained free of headgear. |

2nd 8 (9) |
24th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

11th 13 (12) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Posted a good third over 5f here in June but she's beaten just one rival in two subsequent outings at Hamilton and back here; this course scorer needs to take a big step forward. |

2-29; her best form is on soft, even heavy, ground; runner-up at Catterick (5f, soft) last October; hasn't offered much in four starts since, finishing seventh (two places behind Kyber Crystal) at odds of 50-1 at Carlisle latest. |
