12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Suited by Ripon and he held off an in-form rival in convincing fashion there (1m, good) in July; mixed otherwise this year and he needs to prove that the return to 7f round here will suit. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
4-10 at Redcar but latest win was July 2025 and he's not been seen to anything like such good effect since, including three times here; latest start (mid-division in large field over 1m) was first visit here this term and he now moves back up in trip, having won four times over 1m2f during 2022 and 2023. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

Four of his six wins have been at Redcar including over C&D last July; now 7lb lower than for that success, but he's lost his way since then and has been well held in both runs this season; needs a big turnaround. |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 2-27 on turf, his last win coming at Beverley in September 2023 (1m, good); has run a few fair races since wind surgery in September last year; others look stronger. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (11) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

3-38 under rules and stuck on a losing run; was third over 1m at Beverley five days ago but he pulled himself into a clear lead; risky from a win perspective. |
13/2 |

3rd 9 (2) |
24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Dry since a C&D win two years ago and has been turned over as favourite no fewer than seven times in the interim, latterly behind Sunny Orange ten days ago; that race didn't pan out his way from a wide stall but there can only be so many excuses. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended losing streak in Lingfiield classified (1m2f, AW; first-time visor) in January but has not been in the same form again since and was only seventh in race won by Kev over that C&D last month. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Ended a losing run in a similar event over C&D in January (visored first time); she has found it tougher going since and she needs to leave her latest run well behind her. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won a division of this race last year; back to form with a bang to easily take advantage of a much-reduced mark at Carlisle (1m1f, good) in August; two poor efforts have followed but no surprise to see him bounce back with the Tim Easterby team in great form. |
12/1 |
|
9th 7 (1) |
18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
11yo having his 116th career start; very much had the run of things when scoring by 4l at Carlisle (1m1f, good) and ran a shocker next time; opposable on the balance of this year's exploits. |
20/1 |

7th 3 (11) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Took advantage of an easing mark at Carlisle (1m1f amateurs', good) recently; had the run of the race there - runner-up was subject to a running-and-riding inquiry - so will need to find slightly more from this 7lb higher mark; Jake Dickson takes off a useful 3lb. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
A bit underwhelming at Hamilton a fortnight ago but went there in good form, having won at Musselburgh (1m, good) previously; has won over C&D on soft ground and can be a contender if leaving latest run behind. |
11/2 |
|
6th 3 (6) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This is his time of year and, after a close second over C&D (good) last month, he went one better at Musselburgh (1m, good) last Tuesday; fully at home on slow ground and firmly in calculations under a 4lb penalty. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he's run plenty of good races since including a close second behind an improver at Thirsk (1m, good) three weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher and he has won at this track in the past; respected. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Raced mainly on stiff/galloping tracks; largely consistent winning off current mark at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) in April; in the mix, provided he's as effective back on a sharper course. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways at Beverley (8.5f) in April and has continued in good form, runner-up in 1m Redcar handicap 13 days ago; winner has gone in since so a bold showing is on the cards off an unchanged mark. |

17th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has shown most of his AW form at Newcastle; made the frame in last three outings; on a two-year losing spell but has the ability to play a big role, provided he's as effective back at Southwell. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has loads of C&D form, including a success in this contest in 2024 and second-place finishes the last twice, beaten 1l by Bajan Bandit latest occasion; solid claims. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On lengthy losing run but his last four wins have been over C&D and he went close behind Walk On Walk On here (2-1 favourite) two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher and he's a big player again. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Landed her third success, at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June off this mark; usually runs her race but ruined her chance with a slow start last time (first-time visor; cheekpieces now return); place claims. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |

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. |

Enters calculations on the form of his good Nottingham fourth but he was tried in cheekpieces when last of 11 in 7.5f Lingfield handicap three weeks ago; blinkers are reached for now. |

8st 13lb |
Son of Havana Grey took a step forward on his first go in handicaps when fourth of ten at Nottingham (1m) three weeks ago, faring best of those who raced up with the strong pace; he needs considering off a 2lb lower mark with cheekpieces added. |

8/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time winner this year, the most recent coming when narrowly holding off Amidst The Chaos at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) in July; did well to finish as close as he did at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) 12 days ago after his blindfold was removed late and has good claims if seeing out this stiffer 1m2f. |
7/2 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Progressive 4yo who landed his third win of the year, at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month in gritty fashion; no disgrace in going down by a neck at Hamilton (8.5f, good) three weeks ago and remains in top form; worth following on this step up in trip. |

9st 2lb |
It's not saying much but her eighth of ten at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) was perhaps a little better as she was beaten under 5l in a first-time visor; stamina doubts over this far, though, and no headgear this time. |
20/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Unexposed after only four runs but was well beaten when 100-1 for handicap debut a fortnight ago (1m); moves up in trip with visor added here; could be considered only if much stronger in the betting. |
33/1 |
|
15 (9) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Has offered little on all three runs, not looking an easy ride when tenth of 11 in 7f Thirsk maiden 15 days ago; she needs this switch to handicaps to spark major improvement. |
