22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Dual winner; 0-5 for Stuart Williams but had been holding his own in 7f handicaps until a lesser show last time; whether he's quick enough for 6f is the glaring concern (all 23 runs from 7f to 1m2f). |
8/1 |
|
8th 8 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
One win apiece for his previous two yards; 0-4 this season for new stable but is in form, close fifth at Ascot most recently; getting no respite from the assessor, so the 7lb claimed by Olivia Haines looks a help. |
8/1 |
|
5th 14 (6) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Inconsistent sort who is opposable on the majority of his form over the last 12 months and was only sixth at Newmarket last time; however, he's popped up with the odd big run, finishing third in this last year and filling the same position in a big field at York last month; not a forlorn hope each-way. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 with a Doncaster win and a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft); had a wind operation after the Ayr run but two heavy defeats this summer have seen him undergo another wind surgery; on a dangerous mark but Ayr next month might be the big target; cheekpieces back on today. |
50/1 |
|
9th 2 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who performed with great credit on all five starts last season, including a win here (6.5f) in September and a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f); returned after wind surgery with a low-key effort at York last month but he may have need that run and has claims if he can get back near best; acts on most ground and four of his six wins have been at 7f. |
6/1 |
|
14th 8 (14) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who performed with great credit on all five starts last season, finishing second at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) on his reappearance and beaten just a neck in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) when last seen; has had wind surgery since; no surprise if he makes a bold bid on this return. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Likeably consistent this season and last week's fifth at Chester was no backward step, as he was close up despite being dropped in from a bad draw; usually ridden handier; never won off a mark this high but respected; goes on all ground. |
4/1 |
|
5th 14 (11) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Series of good runs this year, most recently a dominant success at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) ten days ago; that wasn't far off his very best and he's one to consider up 4lb. |
8/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won a Class 5 over C&D (soft) in June and followed that with three runner-up finishes; beaten favourite at Goodwood a fortnight ago but he was racing away from the main action and shaped as though still in top form; Oisin Murphy retains the ride; solid claims. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't kick on for William Haggas and, following an encouraging stable debut (7f, AW) in July, he never got going when last of nine to Good Heavens at Pontefract (1m, good to soft; 6-1) three weeks ago; questions to answer. |
11/1 |

2 (3) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Won 6f handicap here (soft) for William Haggas just under a year ago; didn't kick on for that yard but it was an encouraging stable debut when favourite and third of 12 at Southwell (7f, AW) in July; same mark and shapes like he's worth another go at 1m. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Dual course winner over 6f/7f, the most recent coming in March off the same mark as today; below his best in three starts since but can't be dismissed back on the AW. |
10/1 |
|
8th 10 (9) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with a 20-1 win at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March; didn't get any luck at York next time but he was well held on his return visit at the end of May; has bit to prove again after a break but he's only 1lb higher than for his last win. |
25/1 |
|
14th 11 (8) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth and fifth in his two big-field C&D races last term; Newcastle win in March ensures a career-high mark today but it's hard to judge him harshly on last week's C&D result as he didn't see daylight at various stages. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton; only 1-20 on turf but he wasn't disgraced in a higher grade over 1m2f at Chester. |
10/1 |
|
5th 10 (7) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton where's he won five times and yet on turf he's 1-19; close fourth on his favourite patch 12 days ago and 4lb lower back on the grass, but he wouldn't be the percentage call on first visit here. |
20/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time course winner who failed to enhance a good record for Rossa Ryan when fluffing the start here a fortnight ago; has a competitive mark, though, and holds each-way claims under Pat Cosgrave. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Prominent racer; three heavy defeats from four runs for his new stable in 2025 but the other run saw him spring a 40-1 surprise at Doncaster; blinkers join the eyeshields today but he drops to 6f for the first time on his 39th start. |
50/1 |
|
6 (8) |
5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Heavy defeats on his first two starts for this yard but he popped up at 40-1 when scrambling home at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; first-time eye-shields) three weeks ago; 3lb rise less of a concern than his trainer putting one of the reasons for that success down to quick ground. |
9/1 |

Caught the eye when third of 12 over C&D on her return to action in May; hasn't built on it since but she's well handicapped if this sets up for her. |
14/1 |

5 (10) |
24th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Soundly beaten in competitive York sprint two starts ago but ran well over 7f on other two outings this season; comes here on a workable mark and can be dangerous if the new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
7th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
1-18 strike-rate and down the field at York last Saturday (6f, good; reportedly never travelling); however, prior to that she was a close third on reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to soft) and a good case can be made on that form; effective on good to soft; could bounce back with big run. |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in March off a mark 10lb higher than today but he's mostly struggled since; returns to 1m and drops in grade with the cheekpieces back on and tongue-tie removed. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has won four times from 7f-1m (AW/turf); runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) in March off a 7lb higher mark when tongue tied first time but, with that equipment retained, he's mostly struggled since; needs a revival. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 2-2 over C&D in August, off a 2lb lower mark, when again having plenty of use made of him from the same draw as tonight; got upset in the stalls when below par last time and should fare better this time. |
10/1 |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Both wins have come at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) this year; 2lb rise for second success last month still leaves him 1lb lower than for the first; one for the shortlist. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (5) |
20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Sole win from ten starts came when making all over C&D in March off a mark 3lb higher than today; mostly struggled since but the return to AW could be a positive. |
