11th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Had the run of things up front when beating four rivals at Beverley (1m4f, good) and only sixth since then over 2m and 1m6f; this is probably a better trip but he's not the easiest to predict. |

28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Allowed to dictate when winning a five-runner race at Beverley (1m4f) in May; ran respectably over 1m6f the time before but weakened out of it off this 4lb higher mark over 2m on latest; back to 1m6f but others are a little more persuasive. |

10th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |

No problem with 1m4f but is still to totally prove his stamina over this far; was allowed to dictate when beating a small field last time and a 4lb rise puts him on a career-high mark. |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins have come over 1m4f at Beverley and latest was in May; several creditable efforts since that last success including when a 2l third at Redcar (1m6f, good) last time; this is a deeper race but she's still unexposed at this trip and shouldn't be far away. |
9/1 |

3rd 1 (8) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Below form when dropped to 1m2f last time; in decent form before that, winning at Beverley in May (1m4f, good to firm) and being placed on her next three starts, all over 1m4f; stamina to prove (below best only previous try at this trip) but a possible. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (8) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Three short-priced defeats since a Beverley win off 7lb lower in the spring and back at 1m2f today; will again be popular for a yard that took this in 2023 but she ran poorly in two previous tries in headgear. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win on the Flat came here over 1m2f in June 2024 and he's finished runner-up over this C&D on his last two outings; no reason why he can't go well again. |
2/1 |

2nd 3 (3) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |

Course winner who comes here on the back of a good second over C&D 11 days ago; can go well again eased 1lb. |

2nd 7 (2) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Gained most recent win in handicap hurdle in December; beaten only 2l over C&D last week, taking Beverley record to 1423234; hasn't scored on Flat since June 2024 but looks a solid contender kept to this venue. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Three AW wins when trained by Ed Dunlop; 0-5 for current yard but was placed over 1m2f here last month; 1m too sharp last time; each-way claims if on his game. |
20/1 |

10th 5 (7) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop (three on AW); won four-runner 1m2f Brighton handicap last July; best run for this yard so far when a dead-heating third of nine with Star Mind over the extended 1m2f here last Friday; this trip is possibly a bit shorter than ideal. |

3rd 4 (2) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 12lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop (three on AW); won four-runner Brighton handicap last July; some encouragement in his 5.75l seventh here in February, but that is sandwiched between two poor efforts for new yard. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Hasn't shown anything over hurdles in her last three races and Flat form is none too inspiring, including four handicaps at up to 1m2f. |

9st 4lb |
Twice runner-up on turf this summer (1m4f/1m5f) but beaten a long way last twice, including returned to AW in first-time cheekpieces (retained) four weeks ago; bounce back needed. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Twice runner-up on turf this summer (1m4f/1m5f) but beaten 15l when last of five back at Musselburgh a month ago and now goes in cheekpieces; wouldn't be without hope if that proved an inspired move. |
