22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who was well beaten in the John Smith's Cup at York last month but won two in a row here (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and continued in good form until his blip last time; not ruled out now back here. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f, good to firm) in May and creditable fifth in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago (2m, AW); he's a 9yo who has never won off a mark this high but is versatile in terms of trip and ran well over C&D last month; not ruled out each-way. |

5th 7 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Third and sixth in last two runnings of the C&D Vase on this card; in the groove with successive wins at Hamilton (1m5f/1m4f) this May; however, he's been held off this mark when back up to Class 2 in his three starts since, still in form but suggesting that others will have the edge today. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
1m4f winner in France and added a 1m2f AW handicap at Newcastle this spring; consistent since and probably better over this far than the 1m6f he ran over last time at Ascot; cheekpieces given a go. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |

Lightly raced 4yo; 1m4f winner in France and added a 1m2f AW handicap at Newcastle this spring; consistent since, last time appearing to stay the new trip of 1m5f at Ayr; does have a lot weight, though. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Can take a hold so needs a good pace to aim at, which he had when winning at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in August; still 2lb higher, but this may also be run to suit him so very much frame material. |
20/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Below par on AW last time; largely respectable form on turf otherwise this season, notably Windsor success in August; possibly has very little in hand off current mark, however. |
14/1 |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
The latest of three turf wins was at Windsor (1m2f) two weeks ago; one respectable effort on dirt at Jebel Ali in early 2024 but unraced on AW in Britain and he likely needs something new for Tapeta if he's to defy his current mark. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 27y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Ridden this season by Lauren Young; won at Musselburgh (1m4f) and Hamilton (1m3f) on first two starts, with a good third at Thirsk (1m4f) next time, all on good ground; shaped as if still in form in a steadily run race on latest outing; this good season (better than 2025) has been over much shorter but he did win this race on good to firm in 2024; not dismissed. |
7/2 |

6th 10 (12) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
He's reappeared in rude health this year with wins under Lauren Young at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) and Hamilton (1m3f, good) before good third at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last time; he'll be fine at this longer trip, and also if slow ground prevails; could be bang there. |

19th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Came up short in big field at York nine days ago; can't be totally dismissed on September form, namely a win at Redcar and placed effort over C&D; however, strike-rate for current yard is modest compared to how his career started. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 6 (4) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Landed the third turf win of his career when seeing off ten rivals at Redcar (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; raised 4lb but his AW success last September was attained off 1lb higher. |
9/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual turf winner who last scored when bagging a 1m2f AW handicap just under a year ago; now 5lb lower but that's still the same mark he was beaten just over 4l at Beverley 10 days ago; likely needs to find a bit extra. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
First visit here; excels at Hamilton, where she was short-headed last month (1m4f, soft), and she was always behind at Ayr on Thursday on a very rare crack at 1m2f (heavy); attempts at this trip have also been scarce but there have been hints that it's a distance at which she could have untapped potential. |
16/1 |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course winner who was beaten by a short head at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) last time; she excels at Hamilton and has never won over a trip this short, but her surplus stamina may be no bad thing given the testing conditions. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Lost a lot of ground at the start at Ayr last Thursday so there's a risk attached on the back of that; however, in the circumstances she did well to finish third of six (beaten just over 9l) and three of her last four wins have come here (on various ground) including this race last year; capable. |

17th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 188y |
11st 4lb |
Dual Flat winner in Britain but safely held in three maiden hurdles for this yard; potential improver entering handicaps although yard has a seemingly stronger contender here in Lenjoleur De Palma. |
14/1 |
|
5th 4 |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Dual Flat winner in Britain and useful in that scene; however, beaten 30l and 25l over hurdles and looks one for handicaps. |
50/1 |
|
6th 2 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Dual Flat winner in Britain (rated 80); fair enough effort on stable debut over C&D in May; last of seven on the Flat 39 days ago, however; up against it. |
20/1 |
