6th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four handicap wins in 2024; 0-7 this year and form dipped the last twice but could rebound at this level; major contender at the weights on classified debut. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins in 2024, one of them here (8.3f, good to soft); not at his best at Musselburgh 11 days ago but he's slipped to a good mark and this is uncompetitive; solid candidate. |

Has finished close up when fourth/fifth the last twice (8.3f/1m2f, good to firm) and he was on the scoresheet here (1m1f, good) last July; won on good to soft ground ten days later; every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |

Some good runs in defeat in November/December, including here, but not at the same level this year and he remains a maiden after 33 starts. |

19th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

31-race maiden who has been well held in his last four runs and he meets most of today's rivals on unfavourable terms; down the list. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Course win last September off this mark (8.3f, good to soft); never a threat over that trip here last month but he's a possible reviver in a race lacking depth. |

16th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to soft) last September; rarely seen on fast ground and although he has run well on it, he seems to needs a softer surface these days. |

29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has won eight races, including four over 1m1f here; third to Dandy's Angel in this race last term, but not been in the best of form this season; others appeal more. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February but he was pulled up back hurdling at Hexham 24 days ago; not out of things if shrugging off that effort. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

C&D winner off 6lb lower last August (good); some sound runs since, both over hurdles and on the Flat (9.4f Wolverhampton winner in February); chance. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to register a victory but he comes here on the back of a solid sixth of 11 in 1m1f handicap at Ayr four weeks ago; more is needed at these weights though if he is to get off the mark. |
20/1 |

6th 12 (4) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
8st 5lb |
Longstanding maiden; had a wind op in November and ran one decent race on the AW in the winter (1.25l fourth of nine over 9.5f at Wolverhampton in February); below par next time; lacks consistency. |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Still seeking her first win for this yard but she has often run well, including over C&D, and her second here three weeks ago was on the back of a 190-day layoff; that form has been franked and she should make another bold bid. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |

1-27 on the Flat; some of last year's best efforts came here but she's still opposable for win purposes after 190 days off. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Won over 7f here on his seasonal reappearance in 2024 (good) and was fourth over 1m here after a break in May last year, so could go well despite lack of a recent run. |
14/1 |

9 (5) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest in July (1m2f, good to soft), and she's effective on soft ground; well beaten at Musselburgh on last two starts and has something to prove, but the latest was over 1m6f and perhaps the drop back in trip and return to Ayr will be the catalyst for a revival. |
