1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Rated much higher when joining this yard in autumn 2024; remained consistent enough off a sliding mark during the winter but needs more if he's to snap the losing run. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Already a dual winner for current yard, latterly over 1m2f here (good to firm; has also won on heavy) in July; respectable efforts since but hasn't been helping his cause with slow starts (also soon off bridle and detached latest); the much longer trip will allow him more time to catch up if doing something similar this afternoon but his ability to see it out has to be taken on trust. |

Already a dual winner for current yard, latterly over 1m2f at Ayr (good to firm; has also won on heavy) in July; respectable efforts back at Ayr twice since; this former course scorer enters calculations. |

Already a dual winner for current yard, going in over C&D in July; posted another solid effort with fourth of five over C&D last time; can't be discounted. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) and Brighton (7f, good to firm) this summer then runner-up at Brighton (7f, good) when bidding for a hat-trick; he's back into a bigger field today but ran well in such a scenario at Ascot in May and this in-form contender might have a part to play. |

Reliable 5yo who was too strong for Dion Baker here last month and now bids for a hat-trick off 4lb higher; solid chance. |

15th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won two of his first four races, the handicap over Chester's extended 7f on good to soft; raced freely back there last month after a break and can improve on that form. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made a pleasing start to his career when winning a Doncaster maiden (7f, good to soft; 7-2) in May, but only fourth under a penalty at Wetherby next time and has since bombed out (last of six) on fast ground at Newmarket (1m; on handicap debut); questions to answer. |

22nd Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 15y |

Far better known for finishing second or third than winning; runner-up in a handicap here in May and a close third at Roscommon last month; can be thereabouts again; fourth in this race last year. |
8/1 |

3rd 12 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 1lb |
Plenty of ability but very hard to win with; sole Irish success came at the Curragh in April 2024; later that year, twice second to Merisi Diamond over C&D; again ran well here on seasonal debut and when second at Listowel later in May; possibly needed the run here last time. |
12/1 |

First reserve; has run well in both starts this season; beaten 2.25l when runner up at Listowel when last seen in May; has gone well fresh before and C&D form figures read 224; chance if gets a run. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Very up and down this year, with his stand-out efforts at Ripon (wins over 1m2f on good/soft); down the field at Musselburgh last time but a case can be made if he reproduces this season's best form; ran fairly well here last September; not discounted. |
11/1 |
|
8th 4 (9) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Ripon (1m2f, good) in June and, bar a blip here last month, he's continued in good form; returned to winning ways at Ripon (1m2f, soft) 11 days ago and he could play another leading role. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Dug in to repel Qitaal over C&D (good; from 5lb lower) in June and lost out narrowly to stablemate Poet's Dawn back here the following month; met with trouble at Musselburgh (1m1f, selling handicap) latest; Rhys Elliott takes off 3lb. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
A sixth win here when beating five rivals in March on latest outing (7f); went up only 2lb but lacking a recent run is probably not ideal in this much deeper race. |
14/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won a division of this off 9lb lower in 2025 when it was run as a 0-85, and raised his highest mark defied twice more after; holding his own in Polytrack Class 2s of late, but has more back in his favour tonight. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Has registered all wins over 7f and in lower grades; however, ran respectably in Lingfield Class 2 most recently, while shaping as if this return to 1m is worth a go; whether he can defy current mark is another matter. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
In prime form in July, winning twice (7f/1m) at Ayr, but the wheels seem to have come off since and he beat only one home on the same course last time; others preferred. |
16/1 |

10th 2 (13) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Back in prime form in July, winning twice here (1m/7f), but two slightly disappointing efforts have followed and he probably needs to rebound with a career-best performance; effective on all ground. |
9/1 |

7th 4 (5) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Effective on fast and heavy ground; got back in the groove when winning twice at Ayr (1m/7f) in July but he was disappointing in hat-trick bid there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back near best. |
