3rd 9 (8) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
He's not consistent but he won over C&D last November and ran really well when second of 18 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago; major player if he's once more on song. |
7/2 |

2nd 10 (16) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |

Has gained all wins at shorter, including three times off higher marks at Doncaster; however, not disgraced over 8.5f last time and enters calculations back here. |

3rd 3 (8) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Should be making a big impact at this level and he is 1lb lower than for his Southwell win (7f) in November; still to convince he wants this far though. |

Second in a division of this last year (soft) and three wins this term; ran okay when fifth of 13 at Beverley last time and not ruled out. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |

A dual C&D scorer in the summer; didn't fire in 1m Haydock handicap 17 days ago but no surprise if he bounces back here. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three wins on turf (good/soft) since May and he may well have had a fourth here last month but for meeting trouble; last week's fourth of 13 in a Racing League event at Southwell (1m) shows he's still in form; considered. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
The oldest contender and a familiar face, having taken part in this race for the last four years (form figures read 6529); beat all bar Eldrickjones over C&D last month but the return to this better grade presents a tougher task. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 10 (5) |
11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021; second in it last year; has continued in good form in the main since winning over C&D last November (didn't run badly at Doncaster latest) and is on the shortlist now back here. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Failed to settle and proved disappointing last time when bidding for AW hat-trick; effective in this sphere and may rebound, especially if the ground is optimal; has gained most turf wins on soft. |
10/1 |
|
8th 1 (1) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Back to something approaching his best this summer, winning handicaps at Newcastle (1m) and here (7f) on his last two starts; well drawn to attack but a 5lb penalty could scupper his hat-trick bid. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Sole AW win came here and returned to form with a near miss over 1m at Doncaster where he was headed late on; same mark for this and dropping back to 7f won't hurt. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 6 (13) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Not entirely solid on 2026 efforts but has possibilities on best form, being a four-time Class 4 winner who is in a lower grade today; gained the most recent success 15 months ago. |
11/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Doesn't win often but is down to a career-low mark and is used to doing his racing in better company; has often run well here without winning and showed more back on Tapeta last time, so there are positives on the return from a short break. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins earlier this year and he's been running well in defeat across the past few months, including over C&D and on soft ground here; there is every chance that he will be thereabouts once more. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has won and finished close up in all three C&D handicaps; on his latest winning mark for last five starts but he's been involved in tight finishes in the most recent two (7f and this C&D) so is entitled to figure. |
6/1 |
|
4th 8 (5) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
A dual 7f winner early in 2026 and he's holding his form well, beaten a nose when second of five in 7f Ayr handicap 25 days ago; this C&D scorer can make his presence felt. |

Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably behind Sandy Craic over C&D in June; similar form at Newmarket last month; each-way shout. |

3rd 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably at Carlisle most recently; form over C&D comprises a ready win (off 2lb higher) in this contest two years ago and creditable third (off 7lb higher) last August; good chance back here. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |
14/1 |
|
5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month and ran well enough to think he's still in reasonable form when fifth in a higher grade than this at Haydock last time; in the mix. |
15/2 |
|
6th 10 (2) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last weekend which gives him a fighting chance here but he has a better overall record on that track than this one and remains on much the same mark as when well adrift of Trilby here in April. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Did not get competitive when 50-1 for stable/hurdle debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) just over a year ago; returned from layoff with Flat win in May (1m2f; RPR 76) but not in the same form on the Flat lately and still needs to prove himself over hurdles. |

7th 2 (7) |
21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Made all to win a 1m2f handicap at Windsor on his seasonal debut in May; dropped right out having made the running in a Class 4 at Sandown last month; drops in trip and perhaps a shade high in the weights. |
12/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Tailed off on hurdle/yard debut last autumn but proved a different proposition after a break when successful back on the Flat at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May, pulling over 4l clear and posting his peak RPR; evidently capable when fresh so being off for a further three months isn't a concern but he'll require another career best off 7lb higher. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
His mark continues to fall and he has lots of good form on soft and heavy ground; won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March but this 9yo has struggled more recently and he needs to turn things around. |
25/1 |
|
5 (9) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won narrowly off his lower AW mark in March; returned from layoff with down-the-field AW run this month but combination of refitted cheekpieces and heavy rain could prompt a more dynanic performance. |
14/1 |
|
13 (2) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Not at the top of his game at Beverley on last two starts but hasn't run badly and before those he won at Carlisle (7f, good to soft); has a handy record here, including a C&D win on soft, and he's a possible player. |
10/1 |

7th 2 (3) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Narrow win in a 7f handicap at Carlisle (good to soft) last month; stretched by 8.4f on heavy ground here 23 days ago; shouldn't be too far away back in trip. |

6th 6 (10) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |

Versatile ground-wise and comes into this off the back of a narrow success at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) 11 days ago; only 3lb higher but he may be better over a furlong shorter. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Not quite at best on last two turf starts but now only 2lb higher than when leading close home at Kempton (1m) in May, and this longer trip won't be a problem; a possible. |
