10th 1 (4) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Seven wins but latest back in April 2025; below par this spring and it remains to be seen whether a 101-day break has had a reviving effect. |
25/1 |
|
10th 7 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7-24 with his last win coming when joined on the line at Ripon (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) in April 2025; struggled on AW through the winter (0-4), and was pestered for the lead, weakening to finish fifth (beaten 8l), at Ripon five weeks ago; an easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated over C&D (good) last April and went very close at Carlisle in June; well handicapped on that form but a long way below his best on AW this year; the return to turf needs to trigger a major revival. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
A seven-time C&D scorer; arrives in good nick, posting a solid third of ten over C&D 17 days ago; a likely player again eased 1lb. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 9 (9) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Prolific winning veteran, including in this race in 2021 and 2022 (fourth to Capital Guarantee last year); went close to another C&D success last month and fair third at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) since. |
11/1 |

3rd 3 (3) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winning veteran, mostly over 1m on a sound surface; most recent success came in this race last year, when 8lb higher; supported when a close second at Ripon latest start; respected. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner in the past; began this campaign with two solid efforts and he is well treated if bouncing back; more recent efforts not quite so good though and he goes without headgear today; well drawn and handles soft ground so there are positives as well as negatives. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner from the front last October; mostly creditable efforts in defeat this year and should give it a good shot back at a venue which suits, particularly if he can obtain an uncontested lead. |
9/2 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A dual 7f Catterick scorer in October; back in very good form this season, and probably best forgiven his latest 11th in 7f Thirsk handicap when missing the start and unable to lead; the sort to bounce back. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins over 1m2f at Ripon this year (good/good to soft) and a good second to Salamanca City (with whom he is 4lb better off) when stepped up to 1m4f there last time (good); won over 1m2f last September on only previous start here; interesting. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Down the field at York and Windsor on his last two starts but he's won on his last four visits to Ripon (1m2f, good/good to soft), including twice this year; it's surprising he's only ever had one crack at 1m4f, given how well he kept on over that trip in 2024; firmly in calculations back here. |
11/2 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Most likeable front runner who bagged a second win of 2026 in 1m2f Ripon handicap in May; unable to lead from a poor draw when 11th at York (1m2f) 15 days ago and remains very much one to consider. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Four wins for William Muir and Chris Grassick; winless for current yard last year and has dropped to a career-low mark on first run for 209 days; may be best watched this time. |
16/1 |
|
1 (7) |
30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March off a mark 10lb higher than today but he's mostly struggled since; returns to 1m and drops in grade with the cheekpieces back on and tongue-tie removed. |
13/2 |

1 (6) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) in March off a 7lb higher mark when tongue tied first time but, with that equipment retained, he's mostly struggled since; needs a revival. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Already a three-time scorer (around 1m) in 2025 and he comes here on the back of a very good second of 13 in 1m Newcastle handicap; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Career win number eight when prevailing narrowly in a Class 4 at Beverley (extended 1m) and tends to find Class 2s too tough these days, so excused his Doncaster run; only 1-17 on the AW but could be a factor. |
14/1 |
|
10th 12 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Tough sort but has done his winning this year in Class 4, including at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) last time when taking record to 8-55; faces a tougher task back up two grades. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
17-134; had the run of the race when battling on gamely to edge out Polygram and His Finest Hour over C&D (good; 2-1) last month; disappointing at Doncaster (1m2f) and Redcar (1m) since; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
9th 7 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable veteran who recently completed a hat-trick over 1m2f before disappointing last week at Doncaster; has to bounce back from that, but he should be fine returned to 1m. |
10/1 |

7th 4 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |

Veteran who is enjoying a fine season and bagged win number five when completing a hat-trick in 1m2f handicap at Ripon 12 days ago; this likeable front runner merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Won two in a row at Redcar (1m1f/1m, good to firm) last month and completed hat-trick at Hamilton (1m1f, good) last Saturday; he's 6lb higher than last time and has never won over this far, but he's finished strongly for his recent wins and there's still plenty of mileage in his mark on old form. |
2/1 |
|
1st 2 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins on good to firm ground at Redcar, the latest in an apprentice handicap over 1m under Conor Whiteley on Wednesday; can race off 1lb lower and shouldn't have an issue with stepping back up trip, while rain would also be no problem; major claims. |
5/6 |
|
1st 5 (7) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a two-year losing run when winning here over 1m1f on good to firm ten days ago, beating seven rivals; still well treated on his old form under a 4lb penalty and commands respect. |

Losing run is mounting up but he's currently in a consistent vein of form; moved out of Ben Haslam's yard since last run; again has frame possibilities. |

3rd 5 (1) |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

Arrives in decent nick without winning, fourth of nine in 1m handicap at Ripon 13 days ago; it's now 20 runs since his last victory however. |

4th 9 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Prolific winning hurdler who opened AW account with clear win in amateur riders' race at Chelmsford in June; returned to the Flat with two below-par runs at Kempton this month, though, and has only dropped 1lb. |
