8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ran creditably off 2lb higher back here last Friday, beaten just over 1l and taking record over C&D to 121214; gained most recent success off this mark at Pontefract in May; very solid chance. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |

Won over 5f here (good) and at Pontefract (good to firm) in May; hasn't been in quite the same form recently; others stronger. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins in May (5f, good/good to firm) and has continued in good heart, beaten just over 2l when eighth of 16 over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; however, he needs something extra today. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Close third at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month and another good run when runner-up at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) latest; contender. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Six-time winner who is dangerous at this level; just 1lb higher than for his AW win in March and he was back at that level when a close third at Windsor (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; this is his first visit to Brighton but likely to be in the thick of the action. |
11/4 |

3rd 2 (5) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D scorer; not seen to best effect on his last three runs since scoring at Wolverhampton (5f) in March, going too freely from an outside draw when last of six at Bath (5f) last time; interesting from an easing mark. |

31st May 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Established trailblazer who is 4-14 over C&D and looked to be on the way back when third of nine at Musselburgh (5f, good) at the start of the month; didn't back it up at York (5f, good to firm) next time but this is weaker; best watched for now. |

15th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Ran away with this race in 2022 and went on to show smart form on both turf and AW in the next 12 months; not stood a lot of racing since but he showed he retained ability at Musselburgh 13 days ago; this is a much stronger contest but he couldn't be discounted with confidence. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Poorly drawn and well beaten on seasonal reappearance here (6f) in April, but much more competitive when third at Carlisle (5f, good; 9-2) 16 days ago; bypassed an option at Catterick on Saturday (unsuitable ground) in favour of this; rain - three wins on soft - would aid his cause. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
He did well after joining this yard last year and he's on a handy mark; he should get back on track sooner or later but this 10yo has failed to shine on his last three outings, over C&D on last two starts. |
25/1 |

9th 15 (5) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran whose form has dipped in last two outings, latest over C&D eight days ago; doesn't look as if he's about to improve his poor strike-rate (long time between drinks). |
20/1 |
|
8th 8 (11) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Good turf spell in the autumn included a winning yard debut at Haydock (good) and a close second over C&D (soft); has run well on AW since but looks to have his share of weight; trainer runs five and won this in 2024. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won off an 11lb mark at Musselburgh last August (5f, good); hasn't run as well since and below-par over same C&D last time (good); dropped another 3lb so no surprise if he were to go well. |
7/1 |

7th 4 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained last season's win over C&D (good); slightly disappointing in first-time blinkers (retained) on AW a week ago but now 2lb lower than when fourth of 17 behind Right And Exact at Thirsk (5f, good) two starts ago. |
8/1 |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Useful 5f turf form in 2025 but his season slowed down later in the year and he's been below best, despite the reduced mark, this term; 0-3 on Newcastle AW but he did handle that Tapeta earlier in his career, so perhaps the switch to this track might pay off in first-time headgear. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple wins include three over C&D earlier in his career; has run well on occasions since a narrow Musselburgh win (7f, good) in April off this mark and a recent never-nearer third of eight there under Jake Dickson puts him in this picture; yard runs three. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
C&D win off this mark in April; mixed since but his latest third at Ayr (6f, soft) was a sound effort and today he has the assistance of an apprentice who is good value for his 7lb claim; high on the list. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins this year, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; penultimate Hamilton seventh suggested he was still in good form; no surprise to see him in the thick of it. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Got involved too soon in the strongly run C&D race won by Ski Angel last time; inconsistent this term but is attractively treated (last two wins off 16lb higher). |
10/1 |
|
6th 4 (5) |
1st Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Effective on fast ground but all five wins have been on good or slower including three over C&D; 0-10 this season but he travelled well for a long way when third off this reduced mark at Hamilton ten days ago; usually races prominently and he could make another bold bid back at this track. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 7 (5) |
21st Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Productive 2024 campaign featured two wins over C&D; far from solid on 2025 form and is perhaps best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
