4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
His close fourth at Newcastle (1m, AW) on his reappearance in March would make him a threat off this mark but it's been downhill since; finished well beaten in this race last year. |
33/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Has won on turf (1m on good ground at Musselburgh in April last year) but seems better on the AW and has run well below his best on last two starts. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Raced at 1m this season, for a good fourth on reappearance but well-beaten second favourite here next time; this is a rethink on trip but a C&D third last June and 1m2f win last September are encouraging. |

2nd 8 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Beat Donna Nook over C&D in May when rated 1lb higher; put a couple of lesser efforts behind him when chasing home Runninsonofagun here last week; 7lb better off for 2l defeat so has a handicapping chance; new visor replaces cheekpieces; others still more appealing. |
6/1 |

2nd 3 (9) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner in May (good to firm) and decent third at Hamilton later in the month (8.5f, good to firm); disappointing in two runs since, first-time cheekpieces latest (retained); could go well back on good to firm ground. |
13/2 |

8th 1 (11) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Just held on to score over C&D (good to firm) in May and looked unlucky at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) two starts ago (persistently denied clear run) but has become rather inconsistent and it's hard to predict whether the first-time cheekpieces will get the best out out him. |

27th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Enhanced his excellent record over C&D when extending his lead at the line 13 days ago with three of these rivals left trailing in his wake; up another 6lb but Warren Fentiman claims a useful 7lb (different claimer took away 3lb last time); very solid. |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has form figures of 1111351 over C&D and he hit a personal best with that latest win 13 days ago; 6lb higher back up in grade but he still looks feasibly treated and should be in the thick of things again. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
11-time course winner who defied this mark over C&D in December; some creditable efforts since but he has been a bit up and down and was only sixth behind Anthropologist here last time; others preferred. |
16/1 |

6th 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
11-time course winner, the latest over C&D in December, and he twice finished placed over C&D last month; certainly of interest on that form but this 12yo has gone off the boil on his last two starts. |
14/1 |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Failed to fire at Newcastle last week but this veteran had run two fine races in defeat beforehand; fully effective at this track too so no great surprise were he to rebound quickly. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Good third over a mile here last month but he failed to back it up over that same distance 11 days ago; perhaps vulnerable once again. |

10th 11 (7) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Record of 1-27 on AW but he gave it a good shot when third behind Aisling Oscar over C&D three weeks ago; on same mark here and he could be in the mix again. |

3rd 3 (1) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

4-13 on turf but just 1-26 on AW; returned from five-month break with low-key 7f run here on Friday and remains on the same fairly tough mark. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent 5yo whose losing run goes back 27 races and he was below par at Wetherby last week, however he was a close second at Ripon (6f, good) prior to that and is effective here; each-way claims if back on song. |
12/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |

Strike-rate of 1-29; good run last time when second to an in-form rival at Ripon (6f, good); could go well from low draw but lacks consistency. |

Four wins at Wolverhampton include this race (off 1lb higher) last year; not solid on recent form but is interesting returned to this venue and back down in grade (3-5 in Class 6). |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
A three-time winner (including over C&D) in 2025; yet to hit top form this season though, slowly away when sixth of eight in 1m2f Pontefract handicap last month; needs to take a step forward. |
14/1 |

6th 7 (2) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Kept to a track that suits as his form at Pontefract features wins in 2024/2025 and a resurgent effort (close third) in latest start; faces some unexposed types among his younger rivals but holds a solid chance. |
