20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three course wins for Bryan Smart; yet to shine for his current trainer but he is edging down the weights and he shouldn't be underestimated. |
12/1 |

7th 1 (6) |
30th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Three-time winner at Newcastle (5f-6f); fair debut effort for this yard but then finished last at Southwell on his return from a break. |
12/1 |
|
9th 7 (2) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won early in 2025 on final two runs for Bryan Smart, both at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta), and he returned from an absence with an encouraging fourth on stable debut there this January (5f); he's back from some more time off today but with his trainer among the winners; could be a contender. |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Having slipped in the weights he returned to form with a close third at Southwell five weeks ago; won't be inconvenienced by this stiffer test and he is one to take seriously. |
7/2 |

3rd 9 (1) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Shaped well on his return from a 258-day absence when fourth at Newcastle in December; yet to kick on from that and others look more persuasive. |

7th 6 (3) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Not at his best since returning from a nine-month absence, just fifth to Digital over C&D last time out; more is required from this C&D winner. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two wins at Catterick (5f, good to firm/good) this summer and he's run some good races since (including on sot ground), most recently runner-up at Redcar (5f, good); has won over C&D and he's in with a chance. |
11/1 |

2nd 12 (5) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Bagged a pair of 5f Catterick handicaps in the summer and has mostly remained in form; took a bump at the start when only mid-field at Ripon last week; may well bounce back with a tongue-strap refitted. |
16/1 |

9th 11 (8) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Bagged a pair of 5f Catterick handicaps in the summer and comes here on the back of a solid third of nine over C&D last month; also took this prize in 2024 so he's well in the mix eased 1lb. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Hard to predict and was out the back over C&D last time but he scored at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in June and was successful off 1lb higher in this race last year; comes with risks attached but has claims if he can bounce back again. |
16/1 |
|
12th 15 (3) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Back to winning ways at Doncaster (6f) in June and comes here on the back of a resurgent fifth of 11 over C&D 24 days ago; scored twice here in 2025 (including over C&D) so ought to be thereabouts. |
20/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Back to winning ways at Doncaster (6f) in June; well held in 6f handicaps at York and Pontefract since, however, so this C&D scorer needs to get back on track. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't the best of strike-rates (only turf win came in June 2023) but should improve on last month's sixth at Catterick (6f, good to soft) when returning from a 247-day break; acts on soft. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won his novice after an absence, which is a plus back from nine months off, but he's regressive and hard to win with; some way down the pecking order for a yard also responsible for Pit Boss. |
12/1 |
|
1st 10 (5) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Over two years since his last success but he retains some ability and begins life with his new stable off a lowly mark (left Julie Camacho for £7,000 last month); others appeal more. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years, adding two AW handicaps to his haul in February; arrives in good form but he was no match for Imperial Guard here last week and the turnaround in the weights may be insufficient. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but placed twice since returned to 7f, latterly in C&D (good) contest won by Jkr Cobbler three weeks ago; 2lb higher today but probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but looked back in good nick when close third at Musselburgh (7f, good; just behind Monhammer) on Tuesday and remains on a good mark; shortlisted. |

31st Jan 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

The veteran of the field but he arrives in top form, finding only the revitalised Mondammej too strong over C&D three weeks ago; not dismissed lightly off an unchanged mark. |

Gained both wins at Newcastle in 2024; failed to beat a rival there in last two starts during a light 2025 campaign; drops in class but doesn't look the percentage call. |

8th 5 (8) |
31st Jan 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Showed little on his last three starts in 2024 but there was a bit more promise in his C&D third 17 days ago (finished ahead of Show Me Show Me and Darlo Pride); visor swapped for blinkers today; not ruled out. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft ground; his last win was 12 months ago but that was off 4lb higher and he returned from a three-month break with a promising effort at Musselburgh (5f) last month; should benefit from that run and he's not ruled out. |
13/2 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed signs of running into form in May; proved a disappointing favourite in June when last seen but, judged on historical data, looks interesting off current mark dropped to 0-55 level. |
