25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won here (1m4f, good) in April; beaten a head at Chester (1m4f, good) last month and again finished second at Haydock (1m6f, good) last time; ran well over an extended 2m at York last season and could be involved. |

2nd 2 (8) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Winner off 4lb lower at Musselburgh in April (1m4f, good) and back to form when runner-up at Chester last time (1m4f, good); seems to stay 1m6f so could go well. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |

Drops back in trip/grade having never landed a blow in the Northumberland Vase last time; broadly consistent otherwise this term and won at Musselburgh (12.5f) in April; 4lb higher now, though. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Five wins on AW, including at Southwell (1m6f) last time; may remain competitive but looks by no means guaranteed to follow up, being 0-15 in Flat turf events; just 1-20 over hurdles. |
6/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner; beaten 2l when fourth of six here last month and he was unfortunate not to go even closer when fourth of 12 at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; short of room late on) 16 days ago; switches back to the AW with a good chance. |
7/4 |

7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Returned to the Flat with respectable fourth of six at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last month but is still 3lb higher than for narrow AW win last autumn, and his Flat turf strike-rate is 0-14. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
7lb lower than when last successful here (1m4f) a year ago and has run some creditable races in the meantime, but he hasn't tackled a trip this short in almost two years; others more solid. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on the AW (1m2f-1m4f) and he ran creditably on his last two starts; however, he's yet to finish in the first three in five starts on turf and others are preferred; cheekpieces are back on for the first time since 2024. |

Hasn't won for two years but regularly makes the frame; should not be far away but doesn't appeal for win purposes. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Running well lately, chasing home a subsequent winner at Epsom (1m4f, good) last time; losing run is up to 17, though, so she may again find one or two too good. |
5/1 |

2nd 7 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Last won back in September 2024 but plenty of creditable efforts since include a third in this race (good to firm) last year; tried this headgear combination when beaten less than 2l at Windsor one month ago and she's got solid each-way prospects again. |

Now 2lb lower than when winning on turf in the spring but needs to put two poor efforts behind him; stays further and others make greater appeal on just his second Tapeta start. |

Lost his way last backend for Michael Wigham and has run poorly in two starts for this yard; best efforts have come on Tapeta and he isn't obviously fancied. |
