6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner; finished well for fourth at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in May but has rather mixed record since returned to turf in April and never really got involved at York last time. |
9/1 |
|
18th 2 (18) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Tends to come from well off the pace and sometimes meets trouble; did well in the circumstances when a never-nearer fourth of 14 at Carlisle two weeks ago; won over C&D last spring; big player if the gaps appear. |
12/1 |

Promising second on reappearance at Newcastle and better than the bare results suggest since, meeting significant trouble in running in a big field at York last time; could play a major role if getting the breaks. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple wins include three over C&D earlier in his career; has run well on occasions since a narrow Musselburgh win (7f, good) in April off this mark and a recent never-nearer third of eight there under Jake Dickson puts him in this picture; yard runs three. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
C&D win off this mark in April; mixed since but his latest third at Ayr (6f, soft) was a sound effort and today he has the assistance of an apprentice who is good value for his 7lb claim; high on the list. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins this year, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; penultimate Hamilton seventh suggested he was still in good form; no surprise to see him in the thick of it. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Hold-up sprinter who ended a near two-year losing run at Pontefract (6f, good) last month; better form when second there three weeks ago; has plenty of C&D form in big fields and he has each-way claims. |
17/2 |
|
2nd 6 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Belatedly regained the winning thread in C&D event (good) last time, perhaps benefiting from the removal of visor and beating a subsequent scorer (pair clear); still favourably treated even though he's gone back up 5lb; strong contender. |
3/1 |
|
1st 9 (9) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last two starts, rallying both times; on a two-year losing spell but remain 7lb below last winning mark; enters calculations. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
A solid run when fourth in this race (good) last year but he struggled subsequently, with slow starts also becoming a feature; handicapped to be competitive if a 174-day break has freshened him up. |

18th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Overall record of 1-14 but he finished runner-up five times last season and is well treated on the pick of that form; returned after wind surgery with an encouraging fourth at Doncaster (6f, good) in June but he was disappointing at Thirsk last month and needs to bounce back after that; cheekpieces removed. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The most recent of his six wins came at Lingfield (7f, AW) in April 2025 off a mark 3lb higher than today's but he has posted some good efforts since; however, he was below his best at Salisbury 19 days ago and needs to bounce back with cheekpieces back on. |
10/1 |

5th 2 (4) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Losing run is mounting up but he has proved broadly consistent since last success, most recently beating all bar the market leader at Musselburgh (7f, good); again has place possibilities. |

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 |
20/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
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. |
25/1 |

10th 11 (1) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ran his best race for new connections when third of 21 in a 0-85 over C&D four weeks ago; mark left unchanged but he does need to prove himself on ground firmer than good. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 16 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hasn't won since 2024 but he's starting to look well handicapped; heavily backed when sixth of 20 behind Lord Roxby and Yes I'm Mali over C&D three weeks ago; bit more needed but he could be building up to something. |
14/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Split James's Delight and Elmonjed in top 3yo handicap over C&D (good to soft) in 2024; failed to win in 2025 but he has edged down the weights and his three runs for Paul Midgley have been quite encouraging, faring best of those in the far-side group when sixth of 16 back on turf at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago; considered. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has been in grand form since winning at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) in July and landed his third win of the year (and first on AW) over C&D last time; up 6lb but must come into the equation on this hat-trick bid. |
100/30 |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Went very close on stable debut over C&D last November; made all at Carlisle (good to soft) in July and kept on well to win at Ripon (also 6f, good) on Saturday; 5lb penalty but this drop back to 5f is likely no bother; should give it a good go. |

10th Oct 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Beat The Caltonian over C&D off this mark in June; in and out since but he won this race 12 months ago off a higher mark and he's one of the likelier types. |
10/1 |

9th 2 (6) |
1st Oct 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Up against it on the wrong side in the Silver Cup ten days ago but he'll be happier back in a Class 4 and now on the same mark as the latest of his three course wins (6f, good to firm) in June; one to be interested in. |

Bagged a remarkable 11th C&D success in June; only sixth of eight in 7f Musselburgh handicap 11 days ago but no surprise to see her bounce back here. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Has run well over C&D in the past but Hamilton is her spiritual home and she has added another two wins at that venue this summer, the latest a comfortable front-running success (6f, good to firm) in Class 6 company five days ago; 5lb higher over an extra furlong on a different track and in a higher grade so this may not be her day. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (5) |

Battled well for narrow C&D (good to soft) win a fortnight ago and lost out only by a neck over C&D (good) last week; back in action before latest 1lb nudge takes effect; likely contender again. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Useful on AW on his day but 0-21 on turf; handicapped accordingly but his latest C&D 12th didn't suggest he was the answer to today's puzzle. |
25/1 |
|
12th 13 (7) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Belied 100-1 odds when respectable fifth of 14 off his much higher AW mark at Newcastle (6f) last week but has 0-20 strike-rate on turf; others have more persuasive profiles. |
20/1 |
|
5th 10 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Swept through from off the pace to win a good C&D handicap in January; well beaten in two runs since and surprising if there weren't a few stronger in this field. |
25/1 |
