Only turf success was in a maiden over 7.5f here in July 2022 (good); fair efforts when placed on last two starts, latest over C&D (good); a possible. |

Unproven on ground softer than good; far from solid on his efforts this term; however, won this race (narrowly) off 1lb higher 12 months ago and has clear possibilities if back in similar form. |

9st 9lb |
Three of her four wins have come here, including one over this trip; landed a similar event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) in March and not hard to forgive her performance at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; high on list back in distance. |

Resumed winning ways in classified event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March; winless on turf though and only eighth of 13 in 1m Ripon handicap last time; others appeal more. |

Continues to edge down the weights and he's run the odd fair race this year, but he's without a win since November 2023 and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims. |

He has run some fair races for this yard but all four wins, the latest of them in November 2023, have come over 6f on Polytrack; solid effort over 1m last week; each-way shout. |

Veteran who gained the last five of his 13 wins here (7f-1m); not firing on all cylinders in recent weeks, though, and needs to up his game. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Veteran (13-103), latest win C&D (from 5lb higher) on New Year's Day; out of sorts lately, so perhaps age is beginning to catch up with him. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won two in a row over C&D (good) in May/June; merely mid-division over 1m2f the next twice, here then at York, but the drop back down in trip and return to Ripon could both be positives and he's not ruled out. |
9/1 |

Won over this trip at Hamilton (good) for Daragh Bourke in June, but they didn't go quick enough for him when fourth of eight back there (good) the following month; makes his stable debut in a first-time hood after 68 days off and worth monitoring in the market. |

The last two of his three wins have come at this track and latest was over C&D (good) three weeks ago; up 5lb but he hit a personal best with that stylish success and the form has been franked by the third since; big player again in his bid to make it 3-3 at this track. |

Two wins last year, the second coming at this track (1m1f, good) off today's mark; promising seasonal return when second at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) 19 days ago; that form has taken some knocks since but still no surprise to see him go well. |
