7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-11 over hurdles and absent since weakening fifth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last summer; current mark is workable but others have more pressing claims. |

16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Pulled up on latest hurdling start in February but the form of his Market Rasen second (2m, good to soft) a fortnight earlier worked out well, and he was placed twice on the Flat last month; a possible. |

Mostly in good form since the blinkers went on last autumn and ran a solid race in defeat at Catterick last time (2m, good); the reopposing runner-up Cosmic Soul nearly went one better last weekend. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won three on the Flat for William Haggas; sold for 20,000gns to join this yard last October and scored on her second hurdles start at Kempton (2m good) in March; another good run when runner-up at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) the following month and should run her race. |

2nd 1 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Quite a useful handicapper at up to 2m for William Haggas on the Flat; well-held fifth of 13 on hurdling debut at Hereford in February but she left that form well behind when justifying favouritism with a 14l win at Kempton (2m, good) last month; has a penalty but that was an impressive win and she could have a lot more to offer in this sphere; strongly respected. |

14th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Quite a useful handicapper at up to 2m for William Haggas on the Flat; ran to only a modest level when 15l fifth of 13 on her 2m Hereford hurdle debut (soft) 20 days ago but she's entitled to come on for the experience. |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner but his last success was almost two years ago and he's been out of sorts in three runs this season; has plenty to prove and he needs a big turnaround. |
16/1 |

12th 12 (3) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Winless since 2024 and this veteran has yet to fire in handicaps over C&D and at Newcastle (1m4f) this summer; others appeal more. |
40/1 |

6th 11 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
The last two of his seven wins were at this track, albeit in 2024; placed twice over 1m2f here in a mixed campaign last autumn/winter; well beaten at 25-1 five weeks ago, a run which he may have needed after six months off and he's now back to his last winning mark, but this race looks too hot. |

Well backed when winning here on the AW over 1m4f in December but never featured when beating only one rival home 19 days ago; 0-9 on turf and others are preferred. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Well backed when winning over C&D in December off a 2lb lower mark (ridden by Myla Coppins); the odd solid effort since and he can't be ruled out. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not the most consistent, but has won six times on the AW including five over 1m4f/1m5f at Lingfield; has run well here, but stall 13 isn't ideal even over this trip. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
1m6f course winner; not quite at his best here last time, having raced freely when second over C&D prior to that; a similar effort to that penultimate start would give him claims. |
9/2 |

5th 3 (9) |
6th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has a good record here and was third in this last year; won here (1m6f, good to soft) this May and runner-up over today's C&D (soft) last time; seems versatile ground-wise; could play a leading role. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Won Class 5 C&D contest (soft) by 23l in May and close fourth off today's mark here (good) the following month but returned from break with low-key Flat run a fortnight ago and, on balance, others in this field look stronger. |
9/1 |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
In good form on soft/good over hurdles in May/June when last seen; reverts to the Flat on a mark 2lb lower than when winning at Hamilton (1m5f, good) last June and he's capable of having a big say. |
16/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Handled testing conditions best, bounding clear to make it 2-3 over C&D (soft; a 23l winner) four weeks ago; the handicapper has reacted, and he's now 9lb higher moving up into a Class 4; still enters calculations though, with 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retaining the ride. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 4 |

Disappointing favourite in this race last year but he does stay the trip and acts on heavy going; Thirsk in May saw his first win since 2022 but he's underperformed on last four outings; the last two were admittedly on AW and he's back to that last winning mark. |
