5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) who has taken well to this discipline, winning two of his three starts since the tongue-tie went on, the latest in gritty fashion when penalised; has a double penalty but Tom Hutsby claims 10lb. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims. |

15th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Disappointing sort who ended up 12l behind King's Scholar here last time, following wind surgery; now has a tongue-tie (tried on final start last term) and first-time blinkers. |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-7 last year and has weakened quickly on both runs this term; however, a wind operation may have done the trick and his good course form and a dangerous mark suggest he's worth a second look. |

0-7 on the Flat and not much in three starts over hurdles, but he now switches to a handicap and is a possible improver on this step up in trip; needs watching in market. |
7/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Middle-distance Flat maiden capable of mid-80s RPRs at his best for Andrew Balding, though has regressed gently since being gelded and can still race too freely and/or take a grip; hurdles and stable debut. |
10/1 |

3 (6) |
28th May 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |

Six-race maiden who has finished down the field in both handicaps and needs to raise his game; however, he showed promise in maiden and novice events and could get back on track for his good yard at some stage. |

Won 1m4f AW handicap for Ed Bethell in October 2024; no worthwhile form in three turf starts for Tim Easterby; folded tamely behind Church Mountain on stable debut last month. |

11th 3 (10) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Won a 1m4f handicap on AW for Ed Bethell in October 2024; not so good in most recent runs, including three turf starts for Tim Easterby; makes stable debut now and perhaps return to AW can help. |

Won a 1m4f handicap on AW for Ed Bethell last October; not so good on his last four outings, with new stable for last two, and his record in turf handicaps suggests he is opposable. |

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 |

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. |

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. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner who did well throughout five-race campaign last season, most notably when gamely winning this race; 5lb higher today but much more of a worry is that he needs to bounce back from this season's two poor runs on turf. |

Front-runner who did well during five-race campaign last season, most notably when gamely winning Northumberland Vase at Newcastle (2m, AW); also suited by good to soft turf but needs to bounce back from last month's disappointing reappearance run. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Gained a first win in over two years at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in July; 3lb lower today, as he's not been so good recently, including over C&D on latest outing; others therefore have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |

6th 8 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Gained a first win in over two years at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in July and creditable third over C&D (good to firm again) later that month; hasn't reached the same level since but now 2lb below that successful mark and could bounce back for in-form yard. |

9st 10lb |
Belatedly off the mark when making all to score by 7l at Hamilton (1m5f, good to firm) in June, after a break; managed only third of five when odds-on to follow up there last month and needs to kick on again here. |
14/1 |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Finally got off the mark when a wide-margin winner over C&D three weeks ago; able to dictate the pace there so more is probably needed from a 6lb higher mark. |
6/4 |

1st 3 (7) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
17-race maiden who was well beaten on AW last winter on his last two starts; however, he's well handicapped on last season's best efforts, many of which came here, and Eireann Cagney has won the last two runnings of this race; no surprise to see a big performance. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Prolific last year, whereas his only win this season was in March; ran respectably penultimate start (AW) but not well enough in his other recent races and his record for amateur rider is discouraging; his three turf wins have all been on soft or good to soft. |

11st 3lb |
Won Class 5 C&D contest (soft) by 23l in May and close fourth off today's mark here (good) the following month but returned from break with low-key Flat run a fortnight ago and, on balance, others in this field look stronger. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
In good form on soft/good over hurdles in May/June when last seen; reverts to the Flat on a mark 2lb lower than when winning at Hamilton (1m5f, good) last June and he's capable of having a big say. |
16/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

Handled testing conditions best, bounding clear to make it 2-3 over C&D (soft; a 23l winner) four weeks ago; the handicapper has reacted, and he's now 9lb higher moving up into a Class 4; still enters calculations though, with 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retaining the ride. |
