13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Disappointing at Newmarket (6f, good) last time but in good form previously, winning at Redcar (6f, good to firm) then runner-up at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); second in this in 2024 (soft) and not written off. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Went close over C&D last week in a race he won two years earlier; now 3lb higher and they claimed 5lb last time, so may need more. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
He was 4lb lower when beating Strike to take this race in 2024; could only finish fifth last year but he took advantage of a reduced mark to score at Redcar (6f, good to firm; First Folio fourth) 17 days ago; back up 5lb but he should be thereabouts. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice over 6f at Doncaster this summer, the second win coming off a 1lb higher mark; struggled on his last four starts and a full revival is required. |
20/1 |
|
14th 4 (10) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a pair of 6f handicaps here in early summer; well below form elsewhere on all three runs since, only 17th at York and Thirsk on last two outings, but the return to Doncaster ensures he retains some interest on this first 5f venture since reappearance. |
33/1 |

17th 6 (16) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Landed a pair of 6f handicaps at Doncaster in early summer but he's been well below par both runs since, only 17th in 6f York handicap last time; lots more is needed. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Went close on his seasonal return at Pontefract in June (6f, good to firm); backwards steps since then and losing run looks set to continue. |

9th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Recorded a summer hat-trick on turf at Chester and Pontefract (two), making all on each occasion; not so good since and may need to come down the weights a shade. |
25/1 |

1 (6) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Front-runner who is in fine form this summer and completed a hat-trick at Pontefract (6f) in August; posted another good effort under an aggressive ride with fourth of 12 in 7f Chester handicap last time; a likely player eased 1lb. |
8/1 |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Showed signs of a revival when fourth in a handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) in June but has failed to build on it twice since, despite being prominent in the betting over 6f here latterly; down to a mark in the 40s for the first time but the market is perhaps the best guide back from 11 weeks off. |
15/2 |
|
11th 5 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed signs of a revival when fourth in a handicap at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) and a slow start was no help at Chester (stays 7f); only 2-35 but he's not without a chance. |
5/1 |
|
7th 10 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 but he's on a reduced mark and showed signs of a revival when fourth at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) last month; has possibilities if he can build on that and he's effective at this trip. |

16th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has won on firm but seems suited by some give in the ground these days; sound run when about 3l fourth at Haydock last time on first run at this trip (good to soft); on a really good mark at present and one with a chance. |
11/2 |

4th 1 (9) |
6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Two-time 5f winner who continues to drop down the weights and has shown the odd sign of spark this season; however, it's been a disappointing campaign overall and she's going into the unknown now tackling 7f. |

Two wins in Britain came on a sound surface; regressive since starting his Irish career promisingly with a second placing at the Curragh in the spring; hard to fancy having finished in rear when partnered by Colin Keane last time. |

10st 1lb |
Just one win since October 2022 but that was off 6lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) last May; had just one run this season but he caught the eye with his late headway at Wetherby (5.5f) in April and has possibilities back up in trip. |

9st 9lb |
C&D winner who has been placed in three of her last four starts, including when third behind Hurstwood here (6f, good) 18 days ago; that was in a big field and she should go well again off unchanged mark. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

C&D winner but likes the stiffer finish of Hamilton and got a tad outpaced before running on over C&D last month; however, she's closely matched with the winner Night Emperor and has to enter the reckoning. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |

Fair run on her stable debut/reappearance in April but she took a backward step at Catterick in May; absent since and improvement is required but her best RPR came on good to firm, a surface she's only tackled once. |
