14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins in 2025 included two over C&D (good to firm); this is a belated return by his standards but he has won after a break and would be very competitive if reasonably straight for his comeback. |
5/1 |
|
6th 12 (9) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Successful three times on turf (off lower marks) during a largely consistent 2025 campaign; recent efforts respectable and he was a course scorer for his previous yard. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Four-time winner who acts on most surfaces and was very consistent on turf (6f/7f) last term; opened this year's account when making all in amateur riders' race over C&D (good to soft) under Amy Collier last month; not far off that form when fourth off this mark a fortnight ago; should be thereabouts. |
11/2 |

4th 4 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |

Back to winning ways in 6f Carlisle handicap 11 days ago, cosily making all; up 4lb but this dual course scorer must enter calculations. |

All three wins have been at 7f, although has plenty of good runs at 6f; good third to a subsequent winner at Redcar last time (6f, good); should go well. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Course winner last April when trained by Declan Carroll; runner-up in two of his six starts since joining this stable and shaped as if still in form when sixth of eight at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago; can go well if things drop right (usually held up). |
6/1 |
|
6th 2 (10) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Ex-Declan Carroll; C&D winner last July (soft); below par at Beverley last week but comes into the reckoning on his two seconds over C&D in May (good). |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (12) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three wins for previous yard; has encouraging form this term for new stable and last two efforts (runner-up over 7f both times) suggest his turn is near; 3lb below last winning mark; shortlisted. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent on turf (without winning) last summer; creditable efforts (fourth to Supreme King and Howzak respectively) over 6f here through the early weeks of 2026; worth another go over 7f, even if it isn't obvious that he's crying out for this longer trip. |
11/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Three-time C&D winner; returned from break with low-key run in December but kept on for fourth over C&D on both subsequent appearances, and can pose a threat from off the pace if this race is run to suit. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three of his five wins have come over C&D and the latest (last January) was off this mark; creditable fourth against stronger opposition over C&D 19 days ago; solid claims. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Ran well at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month; not so good in either run since, the latest over C&D two weeks ago; not ruled out but not the most solid option either. |
10/1 |
|
9th 3 (12) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Belatedly came good with two 1m1f wins last summer and looked back in prime form when close second at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month but his latest run was slightly disappointing and others in the field have more persuasive profiles. |
10/1 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Dual 1m1f winner last August (good); improved markedly on reappearance run when neck second at Pontefract last week (1m2f, good); a possible on that form. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
The most recent of her five wins came at Catterick last July; third there over 7f in May but she's struggled in three outings since, including back at Catterick eight days ago; others have stronger claims. |
20/1 |
|
9th 7 (8) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Slow starts are becoming an issue and she's been well beaten on her last two starts; however, she showed spark when third over C&D (good) three runs ago and she won this last year (good to firm); not discounted. |
14/1 |

7th 6 (4) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |

Likes it here but just one run of note since returning from a third bout of wind surgery in April and returning to this longer trip isn't a positive. |

10th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Six of his seven wins have been on AW and yet to win beyond 8.5f; second of 11 at Pontefract (1m, good) ten days ago where he stayed on to suggest this longer trip should suit. |

2nd 3 (7) |
30th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Probably better on the AW but won on turf for David O'Meara in July 2021 (6f, good); good second over 1m at Newcastle two runs back and not beaten far when seventh of 13 at Thirsk last week (7f, good to firm). |

0-9 and unable to threaten in the main since debut win in June 2023; however, off this reduced mark she dead-heated with Dandy Lichious for second of 14 on recent reappearance at Catterick (7f, good; albeit no match for winner) and she's on the shortlist. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable effort when beaten 1l over C&D in May but his overall profile is patchy and today's cheekpieces didn't seem to work when used for the first time 34 days ago. |

29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Ran well at Thirsk 12 days ago, finishing close up in fourth (6f, good to firm; Hurstwood second); new cheekpieces can help and he's one to consider, especially with rain in his favour. |

26th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Losing run up to 18 and entitled to have run better than he did at Ayr last time (7f; handles soft); had been running quite well, though, and cheekpieces now replace a visor. |
6/1 |

4 (6) |
6th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Losing run is mounting up; however, has proved consistent in the last two months and latest effort can be marked up (met traffic issues); defied a much higher mark over C&D in 2023 and enters the reckoning. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Just one win from his 29 starts but close fourth in handicap at Ayr (7f, good) two starts ago and slow ground may not have suited there subsequently; has run well here in the past and could be involved. |
