15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four course wins (all over 2m); lacked the pace to challenge when third over that trip here (good; 4-1) early last month; finished down the field back on the Flat (1m2f) since; stablemate Follow Charlie has more to recommend. |

7th 6 (5) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who was a respectable third at Perth (2m, good) 25 days ago; still lightly raced on the Flat but she's 5lb higher than for her win here (1m5f, soft) last autumn and not sure this drop back to 1m2f will suit; others are more persuasive. |

3rd 4 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four C&D wins, the most recent when justifying favouritism from 2lb higher in May 2025; Flat winner since (last September); reportedly never travelling when only fifth of 12 (Ravenscraig Castle third) here on latest start. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won three in a row over C&D (good) in early part of last season and subsequently made the frame in three Graded novice hurdles; absent since pulled up in Kelso Grade 2 in February but will be dangerous if back on song for this Perth return. |
5/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 25y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Won three in a row at Perth last May-September (2m, good; two of them handicaps) and has run with credit in defeat in Graded races on last three starts, the first two over 2m/2m1f (good to soft) and the latest at 3m (soft); he might not be far away. |
9/2 |

3rd 11 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Has steadily progressive form, albeit mostly at about 2m and his latest effort (in Aintree Grade 1) is open to question as several hurdles were omitted; something to prove back up markedly in trip. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Unable to justify prominence in the betting when well beaten at Kelso (2m5f, good) this month and remains without a win since 2021; others have much more appealing profiles. |
20/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Soundly beaten over 3m here this month and remains without a win since Irish maiden success in 2021; continues to slide down the weights and may benefit from this drop back in trip but still makes only limited appeal. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Yet another placing here in a 2m4f maiden last month; 0-3 in handicaps but was going well when falling in one of them and there's a race in her off this mark; unraced beyond 2m4f but could stay. |
10/1 |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Placed four times in a row over C&D last spring/summer, including a close second in this race, but has not been firing on all cylinders lately and is now 0-11 over hurdles. |
5/1 |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
0-10 over hurdles; ran quite well in Newcastle maiden (2m4f, good) in March, after a break, but weakened tamely from penultimate flight in 2m4f handicap here (good to soft) in April; back in trip today; others preferred. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Bounced back to form with narrow win at Kelso (2m5f, good) in May but that seems to be his favourite track and he ran poorly here (2m6f) last month; this drop back in trip is not ideal; not the percentage call. |
25/1 |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Made the frame in his only two races at Cartmel; short-head win at Kelso (2m5f, good) five weeks ago, which seems his favourite track but he needs respect with that return to form. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Made all to score by 13l over C&D (good) in April and has remained in good form since; current mark is workable; ought to give this a good shot. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Sometimes races a bit too freely but made all to win by 13l at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in April and has performed fairly well on all three outings since (2m-2m1f); worth another crack at 2m4f; probably won't be far away. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Sometimes races a bit too freely but made all to score by 13l at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in April and has also performed well on both subsequent outings (once over C&D); refitted cheekpieces are the headgear of choice today; probably won't be far away. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Stuck in a bit of a rut right now and he's at his best with some give underfoot; others preferred from 2lb out of the weights. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Regressive 7yo who never really got competitive when sixth over C&D (good) last month; far too well handicapped to rule out but needs to stage a revival. |
5/1 |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Not really firing on all cylinders since the winter but has slipped to a very tempting mark and, with blinkers refitted, was not beaten far when fifth in recent C&D handicap fought out by Just Dottie and Mack The Man. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won twice in June (1m2f/1m4f) and put two poor performances behind him when clear second here (1m5f, good) a week ago; can cope with this drop back in trip and is still on a workable mark; ought to make his presence felt. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won minor events at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) and here (extended 1m4f, good) in June; reportedly bled from the nose in his hat-trick bid and then ran poorly at Newcastle last week; not easy to assess. |
