Proved resurgent with keeping-on fifth over C&D last time; may ideally need a return to further but is attractively weighted; won off 5lb higher here (1m) in April. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won handicaps last season when always prominent at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in May and Beverley (1m2f, soft) in September; no show when 14-1 for reappearance one month ago, his first race on good to firm, but it's not hard to think he will be a lot more potent today. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Placed in three of his five handicaps, including a close call at Ripon (1m, good) in June, but he took a strong hold when disappointing there last Monday; needs to step up again after that and he will need to settle at this new trip. |

Seven-race maiden but runner-up on his last two starts, including a close call behind Perfidia over C&D (good) last time; took a while to warm up on that occasion but he finished well and a 2lb rise looks fair enough; respected. |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
He's on a handy mark on his form last June/July, when winning over C&D, and a market check is advised on his reappearance; however, he went off the boil last autumn and returns minus cheekpieces (worn when winning). |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
C&D win in first-time cheekpieces off 5lb lower in June has been boosted by those behind since; latest effort, over further on heavy ground, is probably best ignored and he's one to consider for a yard among the winners over jumps of late. |

Hold-up filly whose win for Ed Dunlop, from whom she was picked up in April for 7,500gns, came on Tapeta; become hard to predict and there's no sign of the usual headgear back from a short break. |

Hold-up filly who went close at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on her penultimate run but she didn't fire there last time; still lightly raced on turf but she's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back again after that last run; switch of headgear. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won two Class 6 handicaps at around 1m in the second half of 2025; creditable efforts off his revised mark to end that campaign and he should be sharper with last month's return to action behind him; others still appeal more for win purposes. |
12/1 |

25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Lit up by a visor (too keen) when a weakening third over C&D last June; did manage to win twice thereafter (with headgear discarded), including from 7lb lower at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft) in September; potentially vulnerable off a 192-day absence. |

One win from 17 attempts came over 1m2f (AW; acts on sound turf) in September; reappearance fourth in AW classified wasn't a bad effort in March and she likely didn't stay 1m4f last time; still has work to do from out of the handicap back on grass. |

Won twice in minor 5f events last summer (AW and good to soft); also ran well when second to Crocus Time over C&D last August; recent return to action at Redcar may have been needed but there wasn't enough encouragement to earn him the vote this time. |

Regularly on the premises but he has just one win (over 7f on this course) from 18 attempts, and first-time cheekpieces failed to galvanise him over 6f here last time. |
