21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Struggled in 2025; had a wind op prior to his seasonal return 12 days ago but he finished well beaten at Redcar (1m, good); too much to prove. |
33/1 |

9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended 2024 in fine form, winning four on the bounce, but 2025 was disappointing; returns after a lengthy absence (had wind op in March) and he has plenty to prove in this competitive race. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 2lb higher than for his front-running win at Chelmsford in July but he hasn't matched it in three runs since, including back at Chelmsford 17 days ago; others appeal more. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Returned to winning form when making all over C&D in July; twice held on turf in the meantime, but one for the shortlist if the return here galvanises him. |

22nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Six-time AW winner, the most recent coming at Wolverhampton (7f) last December off a mark 5lb higher than today's; hasn't been at her best in recent starts but she's on a handy mark, and could go well if things drop favourably. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Out of sorts on turf in her last two runs, but six of her seven wins have been on Tapeta (including over C&D) and latest was off 3lb at Wolverhampton in December; usually comes from off the pace and she's one to keep an eye on back in this sphere. |
20/1 |
|
10th 16 (12) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
She's dropped below her last winning mark and has run some reasonable races on turf this summer, but without suggesting a win is imminent; she's just 1-20 on grass as opposed to 6-43 on AW. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Last five wins have come on the AW including when completing a hat-trick in the spring; has winning form on good to firm ground, but his last two efforts since returning to turf need improving upon. |
14/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Was recording wins eight, nine and ten when rattling off an AW hat-trick this spring (1m-8.6f); the wheels came off when well-beaten over C&D 33 days ago, however, and this mark looks beyond him. |
20/1 |
|
10th 6 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has rattled off a hat-trick on AW this spring including a clearcut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; this is tougher off 9lb higher but he remains feasibly treated on his old form and is a five-time winner on turf; key player. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Exposed seven-time winner; last win in July was off 3lb lower and when partnered by a 5lb claimer; good third last time at Thirsk when not helped by the drop back to 7f, but others are more tempting. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Only six ran when he won over 1m here in August (Class 5) and he has come up short in Class 4 events twice since; others may have his measure back at 7f. |
10/1 |
|
6th 4 (11) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month; only sixth off this mark at Redcar last Saturday but the fact he won this race off 2lb higher last year provides hope; draw could have been kinder. |

21st Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His only win came in a 7f Doncaster maiden as a 2yo; struggled for David Evans thus far but he's dropped 22lb since August and many of those runs have come over an inadequate 6f; the booking of Rossa Ryan and the addition of a visor point to a better showing this evening; confidence would increase if backed. |
