29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Made a winning debut as a 2yo but beaten on his next 23 starts; revitalised by a drop into Class 5 company though, winning 7f handicaps at Haydock and Doncaster (impressed in a good Topspeed figure); up 7lb for last time but still has some handicapping scope. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Multiple winner on turf/AW but his form has dipped since a July double over 7f on good to firm; others are preferred . |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Went up the weights for back-to-back 7f wins on turf in July and held since despite Toby Moore claiming his allowance; Billy Loughnane takes over but could be vulnerable off current mark. |

27th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Close third of 26 off this mark at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) in July and he's better than he showed on his two starts since (6f/7f, good to soft/soft); however, he needs to bounce back today and his last four wins have come over 6f. |
16/1 |
|
11th 11 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Third of 26 in a 6f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but then disappointed when 4-1 at Hamilton; lacks the same appeal as some in here, especially when 6f has always looked his trip. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Scored at Leicester (6f) in April; running well since and just edged out when third of 26 in 6f Goodwood handicap 23 days ago; that form is proving very strong, so he merits serious consideration despite 2lb rise. |

3rd 9 (8) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
He's not consistent but he won over C&D last November and ran really well when second of 18 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago; major player if he's once more on song. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 10 (16) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |

Has gained all wins at shorter, including three times off higher marks at Doncaster; however, not disgraced over 8.5f last time and enters calculations back here. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Should be making a big impact at this level and he is 1lb lower than for his Southwell win (7f) in November; still to convince he wants this far though. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has done his winning over 6f; placed over same trip at Southwell in two of his last three runs; numerous defeats over 7f are a reason to be cautious with him today. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent and hard to win with; better over C&D early in the month but typically failed to build on it at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago (said to have been unsuited by racing wide throughout from stall 9); Dicko The Legend looks his yard's best shot. |
16/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably behind Sandy Craic over C&D in June; similar form at Newmarket last month; each-way shout. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably at Carlisle most recently; form over C&D comprises a ready win (off 2lb higher) in this contest two years ago and creditable third (off 7lb higher) last August; good chance back here. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

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. |

7th 10 (2) |
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. |

Ex-Richard Hannon; not at his best this year and although well handicapped as a result, has plenty to find on recent efforts; tongue-tie now tried. |

17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Only been seen sporadically, shaping nicely on her C&D comeback from almost a year off in June; pulled hard upped to 6f here last time and has slid to an attractive mark now; one to consider. |
12/1 |
|
12th 11 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sole win was in 2023 but she's lightly raced for a 6yo; ran on late over 5f here two months ago when making AW debut after nearly a year off; if sharper for that, and returning to her winning trip, she should go well. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (8) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Winless since 2023 and she's been off the track since beating one in 5f Pontefract handicap 11 months ago; needs to hit the ground running on her Tapeta debut. |

Five wins at Southwell but didn't run much of a race there last time and it's a long time since he was successful on turf; others appeal more. |
20/1 |

2 (11) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Five-time course winner at 7f and 6f who has run well at Doncaster on his last two starts, most recently when fourth (beaten a length) 19 days ago; just 1lb higher than his win here in February and has claims. |
11/2 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has a patchy profile but he's a prolific winner who bounced back with a fair fifth over C&D (good) three weeks ago; has possibilities if he can back that up and last success was off a similar mark. |

Sole win over 6f as 3yo; stays 7f but his form seesaws and he didn't do enough when upped to 1m at Southwell recently to fancy for this much longer trip. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
30th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win over 6f at Windsor last summer; in and out of form since and this year's efforts have been poor (without and with headgear; none today); hard to enthuse on first 1m attempt. |
25/1 |

12th 7 (8) |
17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Won a 6f Windsor handicap in June 2023 (good to firm); patchy form since and well below form on his only completed start this term; pulled up (jockey thought something was amiss) on latest start; others appeal more. |
