17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Made all twice in a row this spring (including over C&D on good to firm) and bounced back from his third of six at Yarmouth for another front-running win at Lingfield (5f, AW) last Monday; had plenty in hand last time and he's 5lb well in under a 5lb penalty; could prove tough to catch. |
6/5 |

1st 3 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has won on the AW but off a much lower mark and all his best efforts have come on turf, including two wins in the spring; looked like the handicapper may have caught up again when third to Michaela's Boy last time and he's drawn wide today. |
6/1 |

3rd 5 (1) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Enthusiastic front-runner; chasing a hat-trick after wins at Bath (5f, firm) and Hamilton (5f, good to firm); a 6lb rise asks more of him but dangerous to discount. |

4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Wins both came first time out but he ran poorly for his new yard on comeback five weeks ago, having struggled during a limited campaign last year; often pulls hard and has plenty to prove now. |

31st May 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Capable of smart handicap form in 2022 and 2023 (RPR 102); ended 2023 tamely though and no sign of a revival in three runs last year; not a solid option but it's possible a change of stable could have freshened him up and he's thrown in if that's the case. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won this race in 2022 as a 5yo; no sign of his enthusiasm waning this year, winning three 6f handicaps, and stepping back up in trip will suit after two good 5f efforts last month; chance. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Ideally suited by an easy 6f or stiff 5f and knows how to win; turned in a solid effort at his beloved Sandown last weekend and remains reliable despite his age, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |
5/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Multiple winner but went up 6lb for his 2l win at Haydock and that counted when fifth at Catterick; however, he does have a very solid record here. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
On a near two-year losing spell but he's a four-time C&D winner and can't be dismissed off his reduced mark; made the frame in last two starts, latest back at Pontefract. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (10) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four of his six wins have come over C&D, including the corresponding race in 2024; drew a blank in 2025 but retains ability and he has run some solid races in defeat this year too, keeping on for fourth at Beverley 18 days ago; drops in class but he has the widest stall to contend with. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
9yo who is on an 18-race losing run; good second over C&D last July (good to firm) and is now 3lb lower. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has won twice over 5f but has been below her best this year; has dropped to a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage. |
8/1 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Reponded well to the fitting of blinkers when winning at Redcar (5f, good) last October, but not matched that form since; also has something to prove over this stiffer 5f. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Redcar last October (5f, good) off 2lb lower when blinkered for the first time; not quite so good in two runs on the AW since; may need the run on first outing since March. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
C&D scorer but he failed to build on Ripon reappearance fourth when only fifth of seven in 5f Catterick handicap five days ago; he's not the easiest to catch right. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Four wins, the latest on reappearance at Ayr last May (5f, good); fair fourth on last month's Ripon reappearance (5f, good), although that form hasn't worked out; good second to Equity Law here last September and, with his stable going well, he's worth considering. |
9/2 |
|
4th 1 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Handles most ground but all of his four wins have been on good to firm; last success was at Ayr (5f) 12 months ago but that was on his reappearance and he's only 1lb higher for today's return; needs a close look after 221 days off. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Prominent racer; dropped right away at Lingfield last week (6f) and the widest stall won't make life easy this time. |
16/1 |
|
9th 4 (3) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made all to win a 6f handicap at Ripon in April off this mark; dips back into Class 5 company for the first time since; well drawn to attack and she's not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
6th 5 (11) |
26th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
3yo whose best efforts this season have come here, winning over C&D (good) in April and going close over C&D (good) in June; fourth of 15 over C&D ten days ago and she's firmly in calculations. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Returns from six weeks off but she was in good form when last seen, third at Beverley despite meeting trouble in running; should be thereabouts again, although plenty of rain would be a negative as she's been withdrawn several times due to soft/heavy ground. |
