Comfortably prevailed at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) last time but is no certainty to follow up, having done all his winning in Scotland; on a career-high mark. |

10st 2lb |
12-race maiden; creditable third to a pair of subsequent winners at Carlisle last time (1m1f, good); conditions suit; should go well. |
7/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Made it 0-11 when sixth of 12 on last month's reappearance at Wetherby but it wasn't a bad performance and he could improve for it; his reduced mark appeals on last season's best form and he's not ruled out. |
11/2 |

Ten-race maiden; bits of form last summer that bring him into the reckoning and he kicks off his 4yo campaign with a tongue tie fitted; betting useful back from 236 days off. |

3rd 9 (14) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Acts on good to soft but unraced on soft since 2024 (trained was positive about it last September); no shortage of success beforehand but cheekpieces seem to have worked very well on last two starts when winning at York (1m2f, good) and running on well again for second at Southwell (1m4f, AW); raised another 3lb but came from an unpromising position last time and still has more to give. |
14/1 |

2nd 10 (8) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Five wins since July last year including one over 1m4f here; cheekpieces seemed to work well at York (1m2f, good) last time and a player in his hat-trick bid despite a 6lb rise. |
7/1 |

1st 1 (2) |

Has a 5lb penalty for his narrow win at Pontefract on Monday (1m4f, good), having finished runner-up over this trip at Newcastle on his previous start; well-drawn; cheekpieces tried; place chance. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden; 1m2f may have stretched her on last two starts but connections also now reach for first-time headgear; 10lb lower than on reappearance and a form case can be made. |
10/1 |
|
4 (1) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent at 7f to about 1m when the ground has been good or quicker; good to soft probably didn't help when upped to 1m2f at Newmarket last month when never in contention so the stamina question remains unresolved. |
7/1 |
|
3 (6) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Mixed form since a promising second on debut last summer, and she faded into third when odds-on for maiden at Ripon (1m, good) 12 days ago; now moves up in distance and she's not sure to stay judged on her pedigree. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
13-race maiden but he has finished runner-up three times; mostly disappointing this year but it was a respectable effort when fourth of 12 at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft; Idyllic was second) last time; this extra furlong doesn't look sure to suit, however. |
7/1 |

4th 9 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

12-race maiden who has basically been disappointing this season (four runs; 6f-1m); moves up in trip with quite a bit to prove. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual winner at Ayr (7f, good to firm/good) this year but his recent record is very mixed and he was last of five over that C&D 11 days ago; not easy to predict here and probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark. |
20/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |

3-3 over this C&D, latest success coming three weeks ago (good; Abduction a length back in third but 2lb better off); up 2lb; chance. |
7/2 |

1st 3 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Down the field over 6f and then in a higher grade than this on last two starts but he has more going for him back over C&D, having won his first attempt last August (good) and then quite readily in May (good to firm); solid claims for last year's winning trainer-jockey combination. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Well handicapped on her best 2yo form but she's finished down the field in four runs this season, including when last of four at Hamilton (1m3f, good) last week; cheekpieces are now added and she needs to raise her game back in trip. |
10/1 |

26th Jun 2025 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |

Of interest on her 2yo best but has failed to make a significant impact in handicaps this year, including seventh of nine over the extended 1m here last week; it remains to be seen whether this longer distance helps. |
6/1 |

7th 3 (9) |
18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |

Ex-Richard Fahey; won a Hamilton maiden on debut last season (6f, good to firm); has been mainly disappointing since, including on both starts for this yard (pulled up over hurdles on first occasion); plenty to prove. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won a 6f maiden at Hamilton on his 2yo debut but he struggled in five further runs for Richard Fahey; 66-1 when pulled up on his hurdle/stable debut at Cartmel three weeks ago; plenty to prove. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually a front-runner; doesn't have the best of strike-rates (2-22) but three good runs in blinkers at Ayr (1m; all on good to firm; has form on good to soft) in June and he stays this trip; a possible. |
5/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent racer; galvanised by first-time blinkers when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last month and although he has been expensive to follow since, he has still performed with great credit; the headgear was left off at Ayr last week but returns today; big run expected. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 2 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Handles all surfaces; many good runs on turf over the last year, making all in first-time blinkers here (1m, good to firm) in July and two solid efforts since; headgear left off now tackling 7f for the first time since 2yo days in Ireland but has another good run in him. |
