1st Oct 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Hold-up performer who recorded his 13th win when landing an amateur jockeys' handicap at York (10.3f, good to soft) last month; disappointing at Doncaster last time but he lost a shoe in that race and is a big player if he can recapture his penultimate form; handles most ground but all of his turf wins have been on good or slower. |
9/1 |

7th 6 (15) |
15th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Not the force of old but came way down the weights and has had a solid campaign this summer; that includes a 1m win at Haydock and rare forays over about 1m2f on last two starts saw him go close at Redcar and win at York; just 2lb higher than at York last Sunday and has to be on the shortlist. |
7/1 |

1st 11 (8) |
8th Sep 2024 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Placed twice from eight starts at York but has not been sent here since 2022; not the force of old but way down the weights and pretty consistent this summer, including a 1m win at Haydock; saw it out well when close second at Redcar last time on a rare foray over this far, so has each-way claims. |

9st 5lb |
Veteran who has followed his 1m win at Pontefract in July with a series of good runs, most recently a close fourth behind Can't Stop Now over C&D last week; should remain competitive. |
10/1 |
|
4th 9 (4) |
1st Oct 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Won at Pontefract (1m, good) in July and he's held his form since then including when a close third at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) on penultimate run; usually held-up and he could make a big impact if he gets a good pace and some luck. |

10st 1lb |
C&D winner; 4lb worse off with Gainsbourg for readily beating him by over 2l at Hamilton (8.5f, soft) latest; acts on a sound surface; it has paid to follow him when hitting form in the past; interesting. |

30th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In good form without winning in 2024 until turning in a below-par fifth of nine over 1m1f here eight days ago; this three-time C&D scorer is the sort to bounce back though. |
10/1 |

5th 6 (8) |
22nd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
All of his seven turf wins have come on good or slower ground and four were at this track; no joy since August 2023 but he's regularly finished close up in recent outings and should be seriously involved again. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Record of 1-11 but he's well handicapped on his best form last season and was beaten less than 2l when fifth in a Class 4 at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; hood is now removed but he could be dangerous on this drop back in grade. |
6/1 |

5th 6 (8) |
4th Aug 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well beaten after racing far too freely on heavy ground here (12.3f; first-time hood) in June and needs to settle better today but ran well on both previous Chester starts and may benefit from this drop back in trip. |

5th 4 (7) |
15th Jun 2024 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |

A fair 1m2f winner in 2023 who shaped well on his seasonal return when fourth of seven over C&D last month; he can make his presence felt with a hood added. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won a Bath maiden (1m, good) on his stable/seasonal debut in April but he's found it tough going in handicaps since and was beaten 8l when third at Newmarket (1m2f, good) last time; continues to edge down the weights but he needs to raise his game. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 (4) |
9th Aug 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Narrowly made a winning return on stable debut in a Bath maiden (1m, good) in April; stayed on into third of ten at Chester (1m2f, good) in June but ran a shocker, with 1m4f not to blame, at Epsom (good to soft) on latest outing; unraced on firmer than good; needs to resume improvement. |

10st 2lb |
Most of her turf wins have been on good or slower; won at Ayr (1m2f, good) and over C&D (soft) in May but has mixed record since and was never involved back at Ayr (sixth of 11) two weeks ago; still 4lb above her last winning mark and others are more persuasive. |

Two wins over 1m2f in May (good/soft) and good third over 1m2.5f here the following month (good to soft); fared less well on the AW last time; seems to stay this trip; a possible. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won by 4l when upped to 1m4f at Catterick (good to soft) in June but he shot up the weights after that and was only forth of seven in a Class 5 at Chester last time; this drop back in trip should be fine but he needs to kick on again to defy this mark. |

4th 8 (5) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
First run over 1m4f and on a sharp left-handed track when comfortably coming clear at Catterick (good to soft) latest, which followed two seconds; strong in the market last time and an 8lb rise is hard to moan about. |
4/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
18th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Eyecatching third at Wetherby in April (1m, soft) in a Class 6 handicap that has worked out ridiculously well; only second in two runs since (1m, good to firm and 1m1f, soft), not looking entirely straightforward, but he has more than enough ability to win races off this mark; stamina not assured but the new trip is worth a look; contender. |

24th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Flat turf and hurdles winner; ran quite encouragingly over C&D two weeks ago, making a challenge before eventually fading into midfield; possibilities if building on that effort. |

10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
7f Flat winner who landed a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield last December but, after wind surgery, he's struggled over hurdles in his last two runs; has quite a lot to prove again and he looks opposable back in this sphere; tongue-tie added. |

18th Sep 2024 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
This season's form has been mixed and he comes with a risk attached having been very slowly away at Ripon (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; however, in the circumstances he did well to finish sixth of eight and he's on a handy mark; could have a major say if away on terms this time. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |

Dual course (1m1f/1m2f), who scored off 1lb higher on AW at Southwell (1m3f) in April; runner-up twice since then but he's been well held in last two runs and needs to get back near best; handles most ground but his turf wins have come on good/good to firm. |
