7f classified winner at Catterick last August but he's struggled to get competitive on his four starts this year; others are preferred. |

8st 7lb |
Just 1-22 but on the plus side that win came over C&D (good; 40-1) last August, when wearing first-time cheekpieces; three AW runs since the turn of the year temper confidence. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won this race in 2022 and finished runner-up in two of three subsequent runnings; looked to be running into form again when fourth of eight at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago and a very good run is likely. |
11/2 |

4th 6 (8) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four of his seven wins have been here, three over 6f and the other at this trip; should come on for his run at Carlisle a week ago (6f, good) when returning from a 70-day break; can go well. |
9/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Long in the tooth now and does not have much margin for error off current mark, but was placed twice on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (6f) this spring and will be suited by today's return to turf (has gained all eight wins on grass). |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran respectably in this contest last year (finished fifth) and at Beverley latest start; however, this three-time Newcastle AW winner is only 1-26 on turf, the success registered in 2023. |
10/1 |

3rd 11 (10) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Drops back in trip having failed to sustain her effort over 8.5f at Beverley last time; has plenty of C&D form, including third-place finish in this race last year; could go well. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

No problem with conditions but on a losing run and he needs to step up a level judged on recent efforts. |

6th 9 (2) |
19th Feb 2026 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
He has run some fair races this winter (had a third wind op prior to his return in October) but he was never in contention behind The Gay Blade over C&D nine days ago; others appeal more for win purposes. |
8/1 |
|
6th 12 (6) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since October 2024 but made the frame over C&D off his basement handicap mark on three of his last four appearances and has each-way claims again in this classified race. |

1st Nov 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Losing run up to 26 and 0-11 on the AW, but he was placed in all three starts over C&D this time last year and is slightly lower in the weights now; could sneak into the frame. |

18th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
No win since June 2022 (that was over C&D) but runner-up on four occasions, including when beaten by a nose here (7.5f) in July; recent Catterick form ties in closely with Elettaria and perhaps the newly applied visor can assist; no back number. |

Last win was over C&D in May 2024 off 2lb higher mark; mainly kept to AW since and can start slowly; would hold claims if back on song. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Beat only three rivals at Brighton but the second was bang in form (1m, good to firm); struggled off this career-high mark at Chepstow. |
6/1 |

11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Accounted for a hat-trick seeker when making all at Brighton last time (1m, good to firm), and form of her C&D close second before that has been boosted by the winner and sixth since; new career-high mark. |
11/4 |

1st 3 (3) |
24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Running well since the visor went on (24142) and only beaten half a length at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) eight days ago; races off the same mark but this is her first visit here. |
