23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Won at Musselburgh (7f, good) off 10lb higher last year; has largely struggled since but latest Catterick fourth from well off the pace was a step back in the right direction and has obvious handicapping scope if able to build on that. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Won at Musselburgh (7f, good) last May when 8lb higher but failed to hit the same heights for the remainder of last season and she's been well beaten on both outings this term. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Second in a division of this last year (soft) and three wins this term; ran okay when fifth of 13 at Beverley last time and not ruled out. |
10/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
A dual C&D scorer in the summer; didn't fire in 1m Haydock handicap 17 days ago but no surprise if he bounces back here. |
10/1 |
|

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three wins on turf (good/soft) since May and he may well have had a fourth here last month but for meeting trouble; last week's fourth of 13 in a Racing League event at Southwell (1m) shows he's still in form; considered. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Sole win from 21 starts came at Newmarket (6f, good) in August 2024; also posted a couple of decent placed efforts last August but ended 2025 on a low note and off for ten months ahead of this reappearance; a watching brief is the percentage call. |
25/1 |

3 (7) |
13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Sole win from 20 starts came at Newmarket last summer; good second off reduced mark at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in August but he's taken two backward steps since and has something to prove again; first-time cheekpieces replace visor. |
8/1 |
|
11 (3) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Only win in 15 attempts came off 1lb higher at Newmarket in August last year (6f, good); fair efforts in a visor (on again) when in the frame on last two starts; has each-way claims. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Record of 0-9 this season but she's much better off with Jannas Journey on C&D running four starts ago; successful off higher marks in this race for the last two years; very attractively weighted and warrants respect. |
11/2 |
|
6th 9 (3) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
9 (4) |
30th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
In reasonable form, having made the frame in last three starts, latest over C&D when one place behind Quest For Fun; 2lb below last winning mark; enters the reckoning. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has recorded the majority of his wins on Newcastle AW; below par over C&D ten days ago, failing to build on his Hamilton effort; still hasn't scored on turf since 2022. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Handy sort who is 1-1 here and ran well returned to turf when beaten a short head and a neck into third of eight at Hamilton (1m, good) a fortnight ago; ground faster than good probably not ideal, though. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Newcastle (7f) in February but below par both runs since, sixth in 8.5f handicap at Wolverhampton last time; has a rare run on turf now. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month; only sixth off this mark at Redcar last Saturday but the fact he won this race off 2lb higher last year provides hope; draw could have been kinder. |
16/1 |
|
6th 3 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Not quite at best this season but exploited some help from the handicapper when winning narrowly at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month and ought to remain competitive after going back up 4lb. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025, including over this C&D; mainly below his best this season but he didn't run too badly when sixth at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 12 days ago; on a handy mark and now drops in grade. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years, adding two AW handicaps to his haul in February; arrives in good form but he was no match for Imperial Guard here last week and the turnaround in the weights may be insufficient. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but placed twice since returned to 7f, latterly in C&D (good) contest won by Jkr Cobbler three weeks ago; 2lb higher today but probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but looked back in good nick when close third at Musselburgh (7f, good; just behind Monhammer) on Tuesday and remains on a good mark; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
