10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Revived by the drop to 0-50 classified events, runner-up over 7f at Wolverhampton and then C&D before seeing off six rivals in a 1m event here last week; that was a notably weak race, even for the grade, and he has a bit more on his plate as he bids to defy a penalty. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
No win since 2024 and all his succes has come over 7f; that said, he is effective at this trip and arrives on the back of a pair of runner-up finishes at this level; unlikely to be found a better opportunity to register a first 1m success. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Has won three times over C&D; clear of the remainder when runner-up in a Wolverhampton handicap last time; sound chance down in grade. |

Placed at Musselburgh last weekend but recorded a meagre RPR; the veteran remains on a near two-year losing spell. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had wind surgery prior to Ayr reappearance effort that seemed to be needed; gained most recent success off 4lb higher over C&D (good to soft) just over a year ago and looks interesting back here. |
4/1 |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |

His form went the wrong way after he made a winning reappearance at Carlisle last May but he returns having had wind surgery and the break may have helped; 2lb lower than when last successful and could be involved. |

Made virtually all off 1lb higher on seasonal debut at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May but not really firing on all cylinders since (six more runs) and has stamina to prove on first venture beyond 1m. |

C&D scorer didn't enjoy the best of runs when a solid fifth of ten in 6f Newcastle handicap 13 days ago; he merits serious consideration off a 1lb lower mark. |

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 |

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 |

7th 4 (6) |
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). |

18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Suited by soft ground and 7f, and on a very good mark now (13lb lower than when winning at Catterick in September 2023); mainly out of form this season; probably best watched. |
12/1 |
|
9th 10 (9) |
24th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Four 7f wins at Catterick in 2023 but he's been struggling since the spring and his much-reduced mark isn't helping him much at the moment; 0-11 on AW and has it to prove at present. |
7/1 |

6th 2 (3) |
10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has an excellent record at this track and won this 12 months ago off a 10lb higher mark (on soft); powers are on the wane now a 9yo and he's not made much of an impact this year, including when third here 22 days ago. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Standing dish at the track, having earned eight of his 10 wins here on good or softer; a long way below par since finishing third over C&D in July (good to firm) but on a handy mark if he can be revived. |
16/1 |
|
7th 5 (1) |
10th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Has won eight times at this track but he's been beaten a long way on his last two visits; 0-8 this year and not crying out to be backed. |
12/1 |
|
14th 14 (7) |
19th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Eight-time course winner (6f/7f), who was placed here last month but he was laboured back at this track last time; goes back up in trip off a dangerous mark, but this veteran is not easy to predict these days and others are more solid. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

9st 9lb |
In good form, winning at Ripon (1m, good) and Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) before a decent third off this mark (10lb higher than second win) back at Beverley last time (8.5f, good to firm); should go well. |
6/1 |

3rd 1 (9) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
On the up since front-running tactics were adopted and comfortably landed handicaps at Ripon and over C&D this month; not dismissed lightly in his hat-trick bid saddling a 5lb penalty. |
2/1 |
|
1st 6 (1) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Off the mark at the 27th attempt when running away with a Ripon handicap ten days ago (1m, good); well in under a penalty and she is ideally drawn to attack again but it remains to be seen if she can repeat the feat. |
5/2 |
