Capable of fairly useful form but finished last of 18 over C&D in final start for Jamie Osborne; sold for 18,000gns later in October; headgear switch; best watched. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won a heavy-ground handicap at Salisbury last month and backed it up with a good second at Newmarket; below that level at Goodwood 12 days ago and needs a full revival. |

Back to winning ways at Salisbury (6f, heavy) last month and second at Newmarket (6f, heavy) since; this in-form C&D winner has solid claims. |

All his seven victories have come on the AW but he wasn't discredited with fourth of ten in 6f Newmarket handicap 15 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb. |
11/2 |

4th 9 (2) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Multiple AW winner; has shown most of his turf form at Ayr, not disgraced last time; 0-22 in this sphere, so the booking of Oisin Murphy (up for first time) needs to make a significant difference. |

Useful on AW on his day but 0-21 on turf; handicapped accordingly but his latest C&D 12th didn't suggest he was the answer to today's puzzle. |

Has a good record at this track, winning over 7f and 6f in the spring; ran well in a stronger C&D handicap in June when not ideally drawn; not so good on turf last time but much better expected back at Newcastle. |

Hasn't looked back since switched to this venue, winning over 7f in March before two fine runs over this trip, winning as he pleased on the latter occasion seven weeks ago; up 6lb against stronger opposition but he's high on the list all the same. |

9st 9lb |
Yet to hit top gear after three runs this season (7f-7.4f); on good mark and can cope with combination of drop back to 6f and return to Tapeta but others have less to prove. |
12/1 |
|
9th 9 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A fair 6f/7f scorer in 2024; quite lightly raced since but back to form with sixth of 11 in 7.5f Beverley handicap three weeks ago; not out of things with this shorter trip a plus. |
14/1 |

Ayr Bronze Cup winner in 2024 who also posted some good efforts without winning in 2025; beat one on his return in 7f Haydock handicap after nine months off but he should strip sharper now. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains a chunk of ability and considerable enthusiasm, winning for the fourth time this year when beating six rivals at Pontefract (5f, good to firm) last month; runner-up back at Pontefract two weeks ago; this might prove too demanding though. |
25/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
He couldn't get into it in a big field at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last Monday but he didn't enjoy an ideal passage and went there on a four-timer following three wins here (6f/5f, good/good to firm); this 9yo could play a leading role back at Pontefract. |
5/1 |
|
13th 1 (16) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
C&D winner who has had a fantastic run this year, winning his last four races on good to firm ground, over 6f and 5f; at the age of nine he seems to be closing in on his best-ever form and he has won off a slightly higher mark than today's in the past; Oisin Murphy up for the first time; much respected. |

Resurgent 5yo who won at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in September before a close call at Wolverhampton the following month; this is tougher back in a Class 2 but he remains well handicapped on his best form and is not ruled out. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |
7/1 |

20th 6 (18) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |

Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
11-time AW winner (mainly on Polytrack); ought to have been suited by the soft ground when well-held fifth at Windsor on Saturday, after a break, and might find younger rivals better handicapped here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Likes soft ground, on which he was a close second (clear of rest) at Lingfield in June and that was after a break of 72 days; a wet day would make him interesting. |

2nd 2 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Ended a losing run when gamely fending off another in-form rival over C&D 11 days ago; 3lb rise is not excessive and this is a weaker race, so he has to feature prominently in calculations. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |

Eight-time turf winner; rather inconsistent this season; has a chance on his third here in August (1m, good) but this softer ground against him. |
13/2 |
|
4th 8 (1) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time course winner (7f/1m) who acts on good to firm and good to soft; did well to finish a close third after missing the break at Hamilton (8.3f) nine days ago but he's not easy to predict and was always behind over C&D on Saturday night; risks attached. |
8/1 |
|
8th 12 (12) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Talented and well treated; multiple wins include two over C&D; nearly all his wins under Paul Mulrennan, who prefers Sanafi Zabeel, but he's also gone well for Lauren Young and ran creditably for her at Hamilton last week; the likely strong pace will suit and he's capable of a big run. |

9st 11lb |
Won at Ascot (5f, good to firm) in April and kept on for close second at Haydock (5f, good to firm) next time; feasibly treated on that form but he hasn't shone on his last two outings and needs to get back on track. |
8/1 |

3 (9) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Looked good dropped to 5f at Ascot in April and ran creditably on his next two starts; low draw excuses a lesser run back at Ascot last month; returns to 6f and shouldn't be passed over lightly. |
9/2 |
|
13 (6) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Impressed over C&D in April, his first attempt at 5f; ran well at Haydock next time and the ground shouldn't have been an issue when only fifth at Hamilton last time; still possible he's happiest on good to firm though and could yet rate higher at the trip. |

22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
He has done well since dropped to sprint trips, winning two 6f handicaps on AW (one C&D) in January; career best when second over C&D in May and he ran another good race when second in the Gosforth Park Cup eight weeks ago; 1lb lower today and no obvious reason why he wouldn't go well again. |

Won twice over 6f on the AW in January, the latest of those off 9lb lower here; has run well the last twice, including when second of 14 back here (6f) last month, but this is a tough race in which to have his first go at 5f. |

Few chances on AW but he ran well over C&D in November off 3lb higher; returned to winning ways in a Racing League handicap at Chepstow two weeks ago (6f, good to soft); respected despite a 4lb rise and his draw in stall 1. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Took a step forward on the AW earlier in the year, at 7f and 6f, but he didn't make his turf debut until never involved in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; comes from a line of superb turf sprinters but this is a difficult first handicap on grass, to put it mildly. |
66/1 |

7th 4 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |

In good form on the AW this year, winning a handicap at Lingfield (7f) in February and running creditably when fourth in similar event at Newcastle (6f) on Good Friday; has shown he's up to Listed level but this is still a warm race in which to be making his debut on grass. |
