20th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over 7f on turf in the spring and returned from 12-week break with two good recent efforts, the latter a C&D third in refitted cheekpieces; still on a workable mark; respected. |

3rd 6 (6) |

9st 8lb |
C&D winner in March 2025 and has since added 7f handicaps at Redcar, where she again made the frame last time (7f); solid contender back here, for all that an extra furlong may be ideal these days. |

All eight wins have been on turf; down to an attractive mark but his AW record of 0-19 is offputting. |

0-18 on AW but handles the surface and he arrives on the back of a solid 7f run at Catterick last month; each-way shout. |

Record of 1-21, the win in September 2022; fair fourth over 7f at Redcar two runs back, but not so good there next time (1m); others preferred. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Gained sole success in 2022 but her record over 7f at Redcar features two short-head defeats last term and a respectable fourth in latest outing; in the mix, provided she's as effective back at 1m. |
7/1 |
|
4th 7 (9) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On a long losing run; has a fair record here, is suited by 7f and fast ground and is likely to come on for her reappearance run at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) earlier in the month. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won so well here in July that he went up 7lb to a career-high mark, off which he was only fourth a month ago; that was under a 3lb claimer as well; might be vulnerable. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Course win number four when a decisive winner over 7f on stable debut in August; 7lb rise sees him on a career-high mark, though Jack Nicholls claims 3lb; clear claims if able to hold his form. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (2) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins came over 7f/1m here last year, the latest from 3lb lower; has a bit to prove now back with his former trainer (who owns him) after six months off; market may be revealing. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner who scored over C&D (good) in June but that was a Class 6 and he's been vulnerable in both runs since; still 3lb higher than for that last success and he has some work to do back up in grade. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who's landed the inside stall; did a lot of his winning in the past over 7f but may be happiest over this trip now, as when making all for Ethan Tindall off 3lb lower in June; one to consider back from a short break. |
4/1 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark for the season when making all at Pontefract last time (6f, good); his other five wins have all been over 7f (two sound runs on both C&D starts); well drawn; a possible. |

9st 5lb |
Two wins last summer (7f/7.4f) and she's below her last winning mark; a couple of fair efforts in the first half of this spring but two lesser performances have followed and she has to raise her game. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Soundly beaten at Redcar last Monday when reportedly hanging right-handed throughout; however, she posted two good efforts previously (including over C&D) and could be thereabouts if swiftly back on song. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins on Polytrack (7f/1m) when making all in first-time headgear; currently running well here, however, and he followed a 40-1 second (7f) at the start of last month with a respectable third of 14 (1m) four weeks later; should give it another good go. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 (10) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Won twice on Polytrack for Charlie Johnston; 0-10 for current yard but a repeat of his second over 7f here four weeks ago would see him on the scene; has won at 1m. |

2nd 11 (7) |

Dual Polytrack winner (7f/1m) for Charlie Johnston whose form in nine starts for this yard has been patchy; neck defeat over 1m here in May came in a slowly run contest and more will be needed to come out best in this. |

Sole success from 16 starts came when getting up late at Southwell (7f, AW) last November and he ran well when second of ten there 36 days ago; has posted some solid efforts at this track and has to be considered. |

Southwell 7f win; close fourth over 7f here last December; flashed home late, having had no luck in running, over C&D (seventh of 13) recently; Robert Havlin booked in this bid to get closer to Barleybrown, Abu Royal and co. |

4yo who is very lightly raced; however, he's yet to threaten and has been soundly beaten in both handicaps, the latest at Newcastle (7f, AW) two months ago when back from some more time off; a tongue-tie goes on. |
