3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Consistent sort who gained a first success of 2026 in 1m2f handicap at Ayr (good to soft) in August; soft-ground winner in the past but possible she simply failed to cope with heavy when below par at Haydock since. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |

Consistent sort who gained a first success of 2026 in 1m2f handicap at Ayr last month; up 3lb but runner-up has gone in since so must enter calculations. |

1st 3 (10) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Has modest 2-31 strike-rate but scores good marks for her consistency in recent months, having made the frame five consecutive times (once over C&D); probably won't be far away. |

Runner-up in maiden hurdles at Clonmel (2m4f) in May and Punchestown (3m) in June; not so good the last twice back in trip and has it to do here. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

Runner-up in maiden hurdles at Clonmel in May and Punchestown in June; failed to match that form at Wexford last month; more like it when fourth in a Flat handicap at Tramore four days later. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
13-race maiden; behind Satyress when fifth at Hamilton (1m4f, good; first-time blinkers) last month before finishing second to an improving rival at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) eight days ago; drop in trip won't be an issue and he has each-way claims. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Best efforts have come at around 1m2f; ran okay when fifth of eight in first-time blinkers at Hamilton (1m4f, good) but they went very steady; might get outstayed over this far. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Best efforts have come at around 1m2f and he hasn't looked to see it out in a handful of starts over further, latterly in first-time cheekpieces (switches to blinkers tonight) at Musselburgh 11 days ago; on a competitive mark now otherwise. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
On a long losing run (last win was at Ayr in July 2024) but he has run a few creditable races this year; has a bit to find with Royal Blaze on their C&D form last month. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (9) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple course winner (1m/1m2f) but his last success was 14 months ago and he struggled here last time; on dangerous mark but he's been hard to predict this season and others are preferred. |
20/1 |

10th 3 (1) |

10yo who has been beaten 19 times since his last win in September 2024 but he's been runner-up a few times this year (including here) and was third at Hamilton (1m, soft) last time; has a career-low mark; each-way chance. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
0-11 this year but on a dangerous mark and was a good second over C&D (soft) 12 days ago; soundly beaten third over C&D (soft) one day later but that may have come sooner than ideal; this three-time C&D winner can make a bold bid. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 9 (1) |
18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
She returned to form when runner-up over C&D (soft) yesterday, a race she finished third in last year before winning a division of this race a day later; has to be taken seriously. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 13 (2) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
She's not been at the top of her game on her last three starts but she's on a handy mark on this season's best efforts and finished a creditable third in a division of this race last year. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
No shortage of success beforehand but cheekpieces seem to have worked very well on last three starts when winning at York (1m2f, good) and running on well to be placed at Southwell (1m4f, AW) and York (1m4f, good to soft); came from an unpromising position on those last two outings (from last of 16 last time, which asked a lot) and he'll be a major threat to all if he stays on this first attempt at this sort of trip; stamina is the question. |
4/1 |
|
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. |

9st 2lb |
Showed some ability in his first three starts but has failed to beat a rival in two starts in handicaps (1m2f/1m3f); pedigree doesn't suggest this longer trip is what he needs. |
33/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
28th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Made debut in April and showed some ability among his first three starts, but tailed off at 50-1 on handicap debut at Ayr three weeks ago. |
25/1 |

7th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Thrice-raced gelding who has shown some promise with two midfield efforts over 1m, including at Ayr; gives the impression this new trip may well suit on handicap debut; open to improvement. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Scored four times here in 2025, including over this trip (soft) under Clifford Lee at this meeting; yet to fire this season but ran a bit better last time and dangerous to dismiss having returned to his last successful mark. |
10/1 |

7th 10 (13) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Scored four times here (three over C&D) in 2025; yet to fire this season however and never threatened when sixth of nine over 1m here three weeks ago. |
50/1 |

6th 3 (8) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won four handicaps here (1m-1m2f, good or slower) in the second half of 2025; yet to fire this time around and may need both slower ground and further help from the handicapper. |

8st 11lb |
Has done all his winning in Class 5, at up to 1m5f on good ground; ran well in 1m6f Class 4 at Redcar most recently; appears to have a stiffer assignment from 3lb out of weights upped further in trip/grade. |
14/1 |

2nd 5 (1) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; off the mark for the season at Musselburgh (1m5f) in August but ran moderately on soft ground (runner-up on it once last November) 12 days ago; worth going beyond 1m5f for first time. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (11) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 5 |

27th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Catterick maiden winner (7f, soft) for Craig Lidster a year ago and put some modest efforts behind him when gaining his first success for this yard over C&D last month; below that form back on turf at Nottingham 12 days ago with cheekpieces removed but back on here and may come into the equation. |

6th 3 (2) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Scored at Beverley (1m2f, soft) last September but he's struggled in four runs since and latest was at Carlisle (1m3f, good) last month; now 3lb lower than for his last win but he needs major revival back in trip; wears tongue-tie and first-time cheekpieces. |

Hasn't been advertising any need for a step up beyond 1m2f in her most recent outings, but her mark is finally more in line with the RPRs she's been consistently running to this term; not dismissed out of hand. |

7th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Six-race maiden who has finished behind Hill O Rue twice since handicapping and seems unlikely to reverse placings with that improving rival; however, could go well off her reduced mark. |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Beaten about 7l in her two handicaps, over 1m and 1m1f; might have some part to play off a reduced mark. |
