1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
10-50 turf; made all, clinging on, at Redcar (1m2f, good; 20-1) ten days ago; 3lb higher, but with 3lb claimer Conor Whiteley taking over in the saddle; is better known as a miler, so stamina could be the thorny issue, especially if more rain arrives. |

1st 3 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 1m winner in 2025 but yet to hit top form this season, finishing just fourth of six in 1m Pontefract handicap 17 days ago; on a falling mark but more is required. |
10/1 |

4th 5 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Multiple winner over 1m-1m2f; versatile regarding going; 12lb lower than his most recent win at Ripon 13 months ago; plenty to prove based on five of his six starts this season. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
In prime form in July, winning twice (7f/1m) at Ayr, but the wheels seem to have come off since and he beat only one home on the same course last time; others preferred. |
16/1 |

10th 2 (13) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Back in prime form in July, winning twice here (1m/7f), but two slightly disappointing efforts have followed and he probably needs to rebound with a career-best performance; effective on all ground. |
9/1 |
|
7th 4 (5) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Effective on fast and heavy ground; got back in the groove when winning twice at Ayr (1m/7f) in July but he was disappointing in hat-trick bid there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back near best. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Got up late to win a 0-70 over this C&D in April off a 3lb lower mark but he was disappointing here in June following a break; needs to bounce back after two months off. |
12/1 |
|
9th 6 (10) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark for this yard with a last-gasp C&D win in February; a 3lb rise for that nose success leaves him vulnerable. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 13lb |
Modest Flat maiden but has shown a bit more hurdling, notably staying on fourth in 2m1f Bellewstown novice early this month (good), raced handier at Sligo latest but didn't seem to get home when fourth (4.5l off third-placed Bobby Kirova) in 2m2f maiden; more needed. |
6/1 |

4th 8 |
12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |
10st 13lb |
Modest Flat maiden ran his best race over hurdles when fourth in a Bellewstown novice last time; has a chance if backing up that run. |
4/1 |

4th 5 |
4th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 40y |
11st 0lb |
Has returned to form on the Flat recently, making the frame in handicaps at Fairyhouse and Down Royal; weak form in two juvenile hurdle runs last year. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Last four wins over 1m at Pontefract but he has placed on all three course visits and he arrives on the back of a respectable fourth at Redcar (1m, good) last weekend; has won on good to soft; enters calculations. |
10/1 |

4th 9 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time winner at Pontefract where he was competitive last month; for whatever reason he never gave his running last week at Thirsk. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Four-time winner at Pontefract where he's been bang there in his last two races; his only other win was over this C&D so looks a player. |

30th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner; came well clear in 7f Catterick maiden as 2yo but he has a mixed record in handicaps and was well seen off on the AW last time out; dropping in weights and now goes without the hood. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
5th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Bolted up in a Catterick maiden (7f, good to firm) last August, but he's finished down the field in three handicaps since including in two runs at Beverley this season; dropped another 2lb but he was well below form last time and has something to prove on this switch to AW. |
