3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Not as good now and has his share of off days; back on a winning mark, though, has a C&D win to his name and this is less competitive than he's used to returning from ten weeks off. |

3rd 4 (7) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His five wins include one over C&D last May; below his best on his first two starts this year but took a step back in the right direction when a 2l fifth of 12 at Ripon (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; contender. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Won a Newcastle handicap over a similar trip last December off the same mark; best effort this year when second of five back at Newcastle three weeks ago; suspicion the 3yos will have his measure this time. |
10/1 |
|
1 (4) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in December but he's returned from a layoff with two low-key runs this summer; only 1lb higher than for that last success but tailed off at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) last month and needs a major revival. |
20/1 |

17th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |

Returned from layoff with low-key turf run three weeks ago but won over about 1m4f on Tapeta at Newcastle in December and has obvious claims here if back at that level. |

Fairly useful on his day for Peter Chapple-Hyam; withdrawn (bolted before start; 66-1 at the time) on intended stable/seasonal debut. |

11th May 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has run well over C&D; made a winning return at Sandown (1m2f, soft) in July 2023 from 632 days off; major backward steps in his three starts later that year and left Peter Chapple-Hyam for 6,500gns in February 2024; absent since and a tongue-tie (tried once in 2021) is back. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Snapped a losing sequence when he landed an apprentice race at Musselburgh (1m, good; stays further) in June; shaped as though this longer trip and stiffer track would help at Thirsk last time; should have a say. |
10/1 |
|
5th 10 (4) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Closely matched with Jesmond Dawn on last month's runs at Ripon and it wasn't going to be easy in a Class 4 at York last time (33-1); this is more his level. |
10/1 |

7th 15 (12) |

Arrives on a recent high after a win at Musselburgh and a second at Ripon (both 1m, good); should give his running but he's up in grade here. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Added to a good Ayr record when seeing off 12 rivals over 1m2f (good) 26 days ago; a 6lb rise demands more of him (yet to win above a mark of 70) but he'll handle today's ground and has a more solid recent profile than most. |
11/2 |
|
1st 5 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner in 2024; run down late in refitted cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m2f) in June, and finished third (one place behind Mr Lincoln) over C&D next time; fast ground a plausible excuse for a lesser effort latest; runner-up in this last year. |
16/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yet to add to his two C&D wins in spring 2024 but got back in the groove with two placed runs last month, the latter in Class 4 C&D contest; ought to pose a potent threat at this lower level. |

10st 2lb |
Signed off for David O'Meara with 1m4f handicap success at Ripon in June; changed hands for 36,000gns subsequently and not out of things for his new yard with tongue-tie added. |
6/1 |

1st 1 (3) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins over 1m2f (good/good to firm) last season; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he hasn't been in peak form in four starts this term; still unexposed at this trip but he needs to raise his game. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (4) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins, all over 1m2f, last season (good/good to firm; two here); best run this term when second of four at Hamilton last time (1m5f, good to firm); a possible. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Returns to his usual trip after finding 7.5f too short last time; however, perhaps ideally suited by Beverley, having gained both wins there; visits Doncaster for the first time. |
16/1 |
|
12 (4) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A two-time 1m2f scorer here this summer but he turned in a rare poor effort when eighth of nine here last time; possibly found that run coming too quickly though so still enters calculations. |
8/1 |
|
8 (6) |
30th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won over C&D on good to firm in July and August and he was a close third six days ago on his only other visit to this track; ridden by Zak Wheatley in all but one of his races this season; considered in hot race. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Well held when third in C&D maidens on last two hurdling starts but ran well to a point both times and has been given a wind op since; smart on the Flat at his best (fourth in 2022 Derby) and open to improvement over hurdles on this handicap debut. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Formerly smart on the Flat (fourth in 2022 Derby) but was knocking about in low-grade handicaps last year; well beaten on stable/hurdle debut in May but shaped with much more promise when third over C&D (albeit well held in the end) later that month, and might collect another minor prize today. |
10/1 |

3rd 3 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sole success came over C&D (good to firm) in April, but he isn't very consistent and ran particularly poorly at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last time; has questions to answer. |
14/1 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Beat 13 rivals to win at Redcar (7f, good to firm) last month on his second start of the season; failed to back that up when sixth there (7f, good) last time and this is his first crack at 6f, but he's not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Built on an encouraging AW reappearance when gaining a breakthrough win in 14-runner C&D handicap (good to firm; Mayo County third) 17 days ago; they were quite well strung out in behind (over 4l back to the fourth) so a 3lb rise looks manageable. |
