28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Consistent of late and justified favouritism at Musselburgh (1m, good; first two clear) on Monday, ending a three-year losing spell; incurs 5lb penalty but looks likely to remain competitive. |

13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Can lead; creditable effort on second start for yard when runner-up at Pontefract (1m2f, good) in June but he's had problems at the stalls otherwise this year and refused to enter them in July; capable but risky. |
14/1 |

19th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Excuses for two below-par efforts for current connections either side of his Pontefract second off a 2lb higher mark; holds each-way claims. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four C&D wins in 2024 (including a Class 5); unfortunate (hampered) not to justify market support when runner-up to Dinah Myte here in June; excuse - bled from nose - next time; recent Southwell run (fifth) should have him spot on for this. |
9/2 |
|
5th 3 (13) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
The last four of his five wins were over 1m on Newcastle Tapeta (hampered on sole start here); looked an unlucky loser at Newcastle on penultimate start but bled from the nose when a disappointing favourite there on latest; player if straight back to form. |
11/2 |
|
8th 3 (11) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Four C&D wins; attracted market support and looked an unlucky loser, hitting the line strongly after being hampered at a crucial stage over C&D (100-30 favourite, beaten a head) three weeks ago; still fairly weighted after a small upward nudge; holds an obvious chance. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
17-134; had the run of the race when battling on gamely to edge out Polygram and His Finest Hour over C&D (good; 2-1) last month; disappointing at Doncaster (1m2f) and Redcar (1m) since; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |

9th 7 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable veteran who recently completed a hat-trick over 1m2f before disappointing last week at Doncaster; has to bounce back from that, but he should be fine returned to 1m. |
10/1 |

7th 4 (4) |

Veteran who is enjoying a fine season and bagged win number five when completing a hat-trick in 1m2f handicap at Ripon 12 days ago; this likeable front runner merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't fully sustained a good start to the campaign but proved resurgent on AW debut last time; has possibilities on classified debut, provided he builds on that effort; C&D winner. |
5/1 |

4th 14 (5) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

4-29 record includes a Nottingham win (1m) in April on reappearance but he's been out of form in recent outings; now makes his AW debut. |

6th 6 (4) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |

Back off the same mark as for his successful Nottingham reappearance (1m, good) in April, but his form has regressed since; enough to prove. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins in Germany; sixth is the best he's managed in seven starts since coming to Britain but he did catch the eye a bit on his penultimate outing and is worth a betting check back from a three-month break. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice over 1m on Tapeta at the start of the year (including here), but has steadily regressed since; may need this after four months off and could probably do with another furlong in any case. |
20/1 |

27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were over 1m on AW early this year; has some fair form on turf but he's been well held back in this sphere in both runs for current yard; bit to prove again and has work to do back up in trip and grade; another change of headgear. |
10/1 |
|
6 (1) |
16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins were over this trip with blinkers on the AW in January/February this year; has some fair form on turf, but was well beaten after a break at Redcar last time (1m, good to firm; cheekpieces tried); should come on for that; blinkers back on. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won two fillies' handicaps (7f and 1m) at Newcastle in November but has lost her form in recent AW starts; it remains to be seen whether a return to turf and step up in trip sparks a revival. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back on form when second in a C&D handicap last month; possibly unsuited by a drop to 6f for the first time in well over two years when seventh at Kempton since; good shout if recapturing the previous C&D form. |
3/1 |

7th 7 (8) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Raced over further since handicapping and his sole success came over 1m last May; second of seven at Lingfield last time (7f), well positioned in a race that was steadily run to halfway; on a competitive mark but dropping to 6f is the query. |
7/1 |

2nd 6 (8) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Well handicapped on his Newcastle win (1m) last May but he's hard to predict and was beaten 10l at Southwell (7f) last time; that took his record to 1-23 and others are preferred. |

19th Feb 2026 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Pounced late to notch his second Yarmouth win (1m, Class 6, good to firm; from 6lb higher) last June; there hasn't been much to draw inspiration from lately, only eighth of 12 at Southwell (1m; 22-1) a month ago. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Turf winner at 1m last June but under the parapet thereafter and he never reached a challenging position at Newcastle last month (dual winner there); temptingly treated but risky. |
16/1 |

1 (1) |
13th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hard to predict and has finished down the field in last three runs but he defied this mark over C&D (good to firm) in June; should get a good tow into this race and has possibilities if he can get back near best. |

9st 10lb |
C&D win (soft) in June off a 2lb lower mark; solid efforts in defeat since and the forecast rain won't be a problem; still needs the new headgear to squeeze out a bit more. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Triple turf winner who scored at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and has finished a respectable third at Pontefract in her last two starts; still unexposed on AW and she should be in the mix again back in this sphere. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Took this prize 12 months ago and she's back in excellent form of late, scoring at Carlisle (1m) before third of seven over C&D 26 days ago; merits serious consideration in her follow-up bid. |
