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. |

Has basically struggled since placed in his first two 2yo runs and that early promise was for a different yard; opposable. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two of last summer's three wins came over C&D (good/good to firm) and she returned to form when third at Ayr (7f, good to firm) last Tuesday on her second start of the season; she's on the shortlist. |
8/1 |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three 7f handicaps (including here); 5lb lower than for the last of them and last month's return to action should have sharpened her up. |
4/1 |

8th 13 (14) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
She lost her form last autumn but won four times during a busy 2025, two of them over C&D (good/good to firm), and a break may have helped; she's 3lb below her last winning mark and could have a big say. |

9st 1lb |
Getting on and hard to win with these days; back in form over C&D last time but in a weak-looking 0-55 handicap and that took his record on the AW to 0-17. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Eight wins on turf but he's 0-16 on AW and he failed to beat a rival over 7f here last month; has something to prove again after that laboured effort and others are more convincing. |

11th 8 (7) |

Front-runner who won here over 7f last season (first-time blinkers); below her best at Newcastle (the scene of her three other wins) when last seen 103 days ago and now steps into class 4 company for the first time. |

8st 11lb |
Placed several times this season but she was 4l behind Coconut Bay when third over C&D (first-time blinkers) last time and that took her record to 1-22; others look stronger. |

6th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Third over C&D three times in a row earlier in the season and an each-way case can be made on that form; however, below par elsewhere the last twice and she has to turn things around now blinkered (replacing cheekpieces). |

Won just once since getting up late in a C&D classified stakes (good to soft) in August 2023; not disgraced but hasn't done enough to suggest that his turn is forthcoming in four starts this year. |

13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |

Track regular who won over C&D just over one year ago; wasn't beaten far when sixth of nine behind Dumfries over C&D (also good to firm) on his June return but two lesser runs have followed; needs to turn the ship around; 1lb out of the weights. |
