2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Prominent racer; off the mark for the year with a narrow win at Bath (5f, good) in May; held her form since and her latest Sandown third came in a higher grade; Ashley Lewis knows her well and she's a leading contender. |
9/2 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form on AW this year and he carried on the good work back on turf when finishing second of nine at Nottingham 12 days ago (6f, good); the return to 7f looks a positive and he looks a strong contender. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (11) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice on the AW over 7f in February and has gone close on his last two starts, including over this trip 28 days ago; has form on turf and this prominent-racer has claims. |
3/1 |

2nd 2 (3) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice over 7f (including on Polytrack) in February and he went close off this mark at Southwell last Tuesday; usually races prominently and he's strongly respected on this drop back in trip. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Just one win from his 18 starts but that came off a 2lb higher mark last summer; raced freely on his return to action 16 days ago and dropped away in the straight; likely to last longer today. |
7/1 |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a fair mark on last season's best, including a 5f win at Windsor in June; absent 172 days and he'll need to be cherry ripe to take this. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden who has performed well over 5f at Wolverhampton a few times this winter; however, doesn't appear to be crying out for this return to 6f. |
8/1 |

6th 7 (3) |
13th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In-form maiden who ran well in first-time visor over C&D (classified) most recently, beating all bar a progressive sort who headed the betting; possibilities in the retained headgear. |
11/2 |

2nd 8 (9) |
27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ran well from the front when in first-time cheekpieces over C&D 11 days ago and now goes in a visor; each-way clains. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
First visit here was a winning one (this trip; did it nicely; May 2025) and he hasn't run a bad race at the track since, most recent example when not getting the rub of the green in a 0-70 two starts ago (finished fifth); soft ground a valid excuse latest; of interest in first-time blinkers. |
8/1 |
|
9th 2 (3) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored twice last summer (including over C&D) and comes here on the back of a solid fifth in 5.5f Bath handicap 25 days ago; not out of things from an easing mark. |
10/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Twice a winner in 2025, once here; reappeared with a close sixth at this track last month and it was his first visit to Pontefract when below par three weeks ago; can go well. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Wore this equipment combination on last three starts, beaten a nose in a Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) on first occasion and making all in a classified here (5f, good) on second; wide draw and interference leaving the stalls prevented those tactics at Windsor three weeks ago; 5lb claimer is on board this time; should be of renewed interest. |
3/1 |
|
10th 11 (12) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Went very close in first-time tongue-tie/blinkers in Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) last month then made all in a classified at Leicester (5f, good); it took her a long time to post that first win but she came clear with a subsequent winner at Leicester and is unexposed in this headgear combination; can make another bold bid. |
