21st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran who has won at this track but who is better known for his exploits at Ayr; solid third at that track 16 days ago (1m1f, good to firm); shouldn't be far away if backing it up. |

Veteran who has won 11 times here, including three last year (1m2f/1m5f); on a good mark and should come on for his run at Musselburgh last week; contender. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Won in a first-time visor (retained since) at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in January and easily made all at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) next time; having gone up 9lb he was beaten 9l when third of 14 at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) last time but today's sharper track may help; could make bold bid. |
14/1 |

3rd 6 |
16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Two from two since visor went on, winning at Catterick (1m7f, soft) and Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft; won by 13l); put up 9lb for last win but should be competitive again. |
100/30 |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
0-26 (0-9 over hurdles) prior to getting off the mark in a first-time visor at Catterick (1m7f, soft) a fortnight ago; came clear with the favourite and he's a strong candidate if the headgear maintains its effect. |

C&D scorer comes here on the back of a solid third of six at Catterick (1m6f) 17 days ago; he ought to be in the shake-up. |

30th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Cheekpieces have made the difference and he'll be 1lb higher from tomorrow following last Friday's Pontefract near-miss; return to this longer trip looks in his favour, with Kaiya Fraser taking 3lb off, and he remains low mileage. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He lacks a recent outing and was inconsistent last year but reappears on a competitive mark and his trainer won this last year; ran well last May on his sole previous visit to Catterick and could have a part to play. |
12/1 |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Solid over C&D of late, running out a convincing winner to make his breakthrough at the start of August before a narrow second a fortnight ago; same mark here and he's a leading contender. |
100/30 |
|
2 (4) |
25th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Off the mark over this C&D last month but he was held in fourth off this mark at Musselburgh (2m2f, good) 29 days ago; remains unexposed over this trip and he holds claims returned to AW. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
10st 8lb |
Kept on well to score at his beloved Hamilton (1m4f, good) four weeks ago; a 5lb rise will make life tougher as he seeks to win away from that Lanarkshire venue for the first time; down the field (sixth) behind Stellarmasterpiece over 1m4f here in April. |
7/2 |

12th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Dual course winner (1m4f/1m5f); form has dipped slightly since finishing runner-up at Carlisle (1m6f, good to firm) in May but, on recent evidence, he's closely matched with today's rivals Crystal Guard and Sugarpiehoneybunch; foolish to dismiss. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |

Dual 1m4f winner on Tapeta elsewhere; placed three times from six starts over this sort of trip on Tapeta and could make the frame from just 2lb above his last winning mark. |
12/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No AW win since January 2023 (Newcastle, 12.5f); managed to score at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last July but fortunes dipped markedly towards the end of the turf season; more than enough to prove after layoff. |
16/1 |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (12.4f, good) in July and respectable efforts in next two runs but his form nosedived at Hamilton last month; has something to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back; stablemate of Elemental Eye. |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Respectable fifth over C&D (good; first run after wind op) last month and didn't run badly on the Flat a fortnight later (first-time tongue-tie) but he's 0-26 under all codes now and is 6lb out of the weights today. |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored over C&D in January off just 1lb lower; absent since a heavy defeat over hurdles in May but the January win came after a 95-day break; visor the headgear of choice today; more appealing than many. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only once over hurdles since 2023, when pulled up last summer, and his AW win in January came in a low-grade handicap; needs to prove he can still be competitive off a mark this high over jumps. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Has won three times here, all with give in the ground, twice over this trip; would be interesting if the ground eases but usually comes on for her first run. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Ended a long losing sequence when winning at Ayr (1m7f, soft) last month and she followed up there (1m5f, heavy) a fortnight ago; also effective elsewhere and this in-form mare could play another leading role. |
3/1 |
|
6 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 5f 26y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Ended a losing run going back to September 2022 when winning here (1m7f, soft) last Tuesday; her profile suggests her credentials for following up are questionable, but she had 3l to spare last week and a 4lb penalty may not stop her if she can reproduce that form. |
