13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well handicapped on his old form but he's been tailed off in three runs (1m, AW/good to firm) for new yard this year and has a lot to prove |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well below best on final starts for previous trainer and he's beaten a total of one rival in two AW runs (1m) for this one in 2026; has a lot to prove. |

Well treated on his 2024 form; low-key stable debut here three weeks ago and he arrives with a point to prove. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years, adding two AW handicaps to his haul in February; arrives in good form but he was no match for Imperial Guard here last week and the turnaround in the weights may be insufficient. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but placed twice since returned to 7f, latterly in C&D (good) contest won by Jkr Cobbler three weeks ago; 2lb higher today but probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (10) |

Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but looked back in good nick when close third at Musselburgh (7f, good; just behind Monhammer) on Tuesday and remains on a good mark; shortlisted. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Below best on his last three starts but his recent Newmarket sixth was a step back in the right direction; made it 2-2 here when winning over C&D (good) in June and well worth a second look now back here. |
11/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Returns to rather calmer waters after coming up well short in bigger fields at York last month; in particularly good form in June, winning at Pontefract then placed twice over C&D; could go well. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Newcastle winner (6f, Tapeta) the winter before last and 17lb lower than when successful at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in June last year; down in grade, but not performing as though ready to exploit his plummeting mark and is still to conclusively prove he wants this far; cheekpieces return. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (1) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

On a long losing sequence and yet to hit top form this season, fourth of nine in 6f Thirsk handicap nine days ago; more is required despite a falling mark. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Handy sort whose three turf wins have all come over C&D; not firing of late, but has become dangerously well handicapped having dropped 14lb below his last winning mark. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner; made a winning stable debut for Laura Mongan (1m, AW) in March but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 2,000gns in July; return to 6f should suit on stable debut. |
20/1 |

9th 6 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won at 6f and over C&D for James Owen at the start of the year, then over 1m here on yard debut in March, but his last three runs have been nothing like as good; has plenty to prove back at 7f. |
25/1 |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Enjoyed a revival for James Owen and this yard earlier in the year, with three wins, including two round here; up in the weights now, though, and finished well behind a couple of these over C&D a month ago; needs more from somewhere. |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Well treated on her old form but last win was over two years ago and she has form figures of 77870096 in the last 13 months; handles most ground but she has plenty to prove and needs a big turnaround. |
10/1 |

21st Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Major player on her 2023 form but she went the wrong way last year; there was more encouragement in her midfield finish in a 0-72 handicap at Doncaster three weeks ago (5f, good), however, and she's considered back in these calmer waters. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

Last two wins have been at Ayr, the most recent coming over 1m2f last summer, but she's been well held there on her last two starts; others preferred. |
16/1 |

9th 9 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner, the most recent over this trip (Class 6, good to soft) over a year ago; no obvious excuses (form figures 9549) in 2026, but does have a capable 5lb claimer aboard, and further rain could assist; stablemate of Golden Valour. |
