24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
On a losing run but he's proving consistent this season and posted a solid third of six in 1m2f handicap here two weeks ago; this course winner ought to be thereabouts once more. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Consistent 6yo who was placed at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month and remains 1lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to firm) just over a year ago; ought to be right in the thick of things. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Consistent 6yo who was beaten under 1l when fourth of eight at Chester (extended 1m4f, good) 12 days ago and will be fine over this shorter trip; likely to be on the premises again. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Keen-going front-runner who landed a second Epsom victory (also a C&D winner) when showing the right attitude to get back up late last month; won back-to-back races last summer and no surprise to see history repeat itself upped a fair 2lb. |
5/1 |

1st 6 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Placed off 3lb higher at Lingfield (1m2f, good) on seasonal/stable debut in May but not quite in same form on any of three subsequent outings, the last twice here (1m2f/8.5f); needs to up his game. |
11/2 |
|
5th 4 (9) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Front-runner; latest win was under Mason Paetel here (1m2f) early last July for Ed Dunlop; 4lb lower today but that's after he went off the boil and there's been only a partial revival for new yard this year, finishing sixth of nine here last time in the race he won last year; the last time he raced over a trip this short was May 2025. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Returns to his usual trip after finding 7.5f too short last time; however, perhaps ideally suited by Beverley, having gained both wins there; visits Doncaster for the first time. |
16/1 |
|
12 (4) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A two-time 1m2f scorer here this summer but he turned in a rare poor effort when eighth of nine here last time; possibly found that run coming too quickly though so still enters calculations. |
8/1 |
|
8 (6) |
30th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won over C&D on good to firm in July and August and he was a close third six days ago on his only other visit to this track; ridden by Zak Wheatley in all but one of his races this season; considered in hot race. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 7lb |
AW winner in Britain posted a solid effort on Irish and stable debut at the Curragh in June but hasn't gone on from that; down the field over C&D on latest and same mark now; visor worn that day discarded; needs more. |
18/1 |
|
8th 11 (2) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 184y |
8st 11lb |
Ordinary form in Britain, just sole 1m AW win to his name; seasonal/stable debut fourth over 1m4f at the Curragh, in this grade, was very good (travelled well and stuck on well) and quite likely he 'bounced' eight days later at Carlisle; has tried different headgear and visor now goes; trainer seems adept at improving recruits. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Broke duck at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in May 2025 and some good efforts in defeat followed later in the year; however, it's been a slow process recapturing form for new yard and was well held when second of five back at Yarmouth recently; no good thing to take advantage of a tempting mark. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 (5) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Well handicapped on some of last year's form for Alice Haynes that includes a fast-ground C&D win but has not been competitive on any of four starts for new stable this season (cheekpieces refitted last time); considered only if lively in the betting. |
20/1 |

6th 5 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
28-race maiden but he has been running with credit, finishing in the frame on his last eight starts; acts on AW and he makes more appeal than some. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 5 (6) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
27-race maiden but he has been running well, including when a 8l second of seven behind Hansteen at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago; has a bit to find to reverse placings with that rival but holds each-way claims back into a handicap. |
7/1 |

2nd 3 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Is 0-26 but comes here in good form, third of 11 in C&D handicap ten days ago; needs considering dropping back into classified company. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
More talent than many with his rating but he is often the architect of his own demise, as when virtually refusing to race here three weeks ago; prior to that he'd won a C&D handicap for today's rider so a revival wouldn't be a total shock; headgear off today. |
14/1 |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Had been racing over further but managed to win an amateur riders' event over C&D (first-time blinkers) in April; more needed off 3lb higher, but he still has more to recommend him than some. |

Completed a double over C&D off 5lb higher last January for Jack Jones but he's struggled in three starts since joining this yard following a long absence; back up to 1m with a bit to prove. |

8th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Completed a double off 3lb higher here (1m) for Jack Jones last January but he's had only three runs since and has been out of sorts for new yard this spring; finished in rear behind Fat Gladiator over C&D last time and he has plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
