15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Impressive in this race in 2024 when rated 3lb higher; mixed bag this summer but his two best turf runs have come over C&D and this represents an ease in grade; can't rule out. |

C&D winner who won two in a row at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and was a close third over C&D (good) in May; he's dropped back down to a handy mark but has finished down the field on his last three outings. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

Won a local Group 1 in Bahrain in January but got clobbered by the handicapper as a result; slipping back to a more realistic mark but drawn highest and others bring much more pressing claims. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has won four of his last seven starts, including at Windsor (5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; that was a last-gasp success but he beat a subsequent winner and this return to slower ground is no problem; big player again in his bid for a third course win. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually claimer ridden, to set the pace or race prominently; 8yo who has never raced here but he's been competitive in nearly every race this season, winning three, and went down by just a head and a neck at Newmarket on latest outing; drawn a bit wide but needs major respect. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer who made it three wins in his last five starts when making all at Musselburgh (5f, good) last Friday; it's over three years since he defied a mark this high but he has to be respected in his current mood. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
13-time winner who is ideally suited by slow ground; his last success was off 2lb higher at Ripon (6f, soft) last summer but he's been well held in both runs this season; now drops back in trip but this veteran needs a major revival. |
16/1 |
|
7th 3 (8) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13-91; won from this mark at Ripon (6f, soft; Ideal Guest third) last July and was runner-up at Pontefract (from 4lb higher) last September; weakened - eighth of nine - on last month's C&D comeback run (66-1) but that's likely to have brought him on. |
14/1 |
|
8th 8 (4) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who scored at Ripon (6f, soft) last July and is just 2lb higher on this reappearance outing; however, 6f has been this 11yo's optimum trip in recent seasons, and this is his first run since October. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Likeably consistent this season and last week's fifth at Chester was no backward step, as he was close up despite being dropped in from a bad draw; usually ridden handier; never won off a mark this high but respected; goes on all ground. |
4/1 |
|
5th 14 (11) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Series of good runs this year, most recently a dominant success at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) ten days ago; that wasn't far off his very best and he's one to consider up 4lb. |
8/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won a Class 5 over C&D (soft) in June and followed that with three runner-up finishes; beaten favourite at Goodwood a fortnight ago but he was racing away from the main action and shaped as though still in top form; Oisin Murphy retains the ride; solid claims. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last eight starts in classifieds and he didn't always get the breaks when third over C&D 12 days ago; that was one of his better recent efforts and he's firmly in calculations. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 (5) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Regressive 8yo; running respectably at this level in 2026 but 2l behind Woodrafff at Newcastle last week; never threatened over 1m2f on Thursday; easy enough to look elsewhere. |
8/1 |

6th 10 (4) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Spent most of a long career racing at shy of 1m and didn't look to see it out in one try over this far (C&D); not as good now and can miss the break and/or pull hard, so comes with risks attached. |

33/1 |
|
9th 10 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
8yo who was knocking on the door prior to making all in fine style at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 12 days ago; had just three rivals to beat last time and he's 4lb higher in a tougher race today, but is clearly in good heart and is a two-time winner at Thirsk; could go well. |
11/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |

Better on AW than turf so two defeats on the grass aren't especially damaging to his claims here; won easily at Wolverhampton (5f) on his most recent start and he is respected back on Tapeta. |

9th 1 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Wasn't winning out of turn when taking a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton in May; didn't get the clearest run at Chester three weeks ago but that took his turf record to 0-11; others are more appealing. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
