26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
On a losing sequence but seemed rejuvenated by the refitting of a hood when a good third of ten in 7f Beverley handicap last month, nearest finish having had to wait for a run over 1f out; course winner who is effective over this shorter trip and a likely player off a reduced mark. |

Hurtling down the weights but for good reason as this multiple winner is looking very regressive. |

Fully 15lb lower than when winning at Lingfield (6f, AW) last December but this 9yo has regressed in recent months; has to turn things around. |

9st 9lb |
Won twice last autumn and latest was over C&D; 0-10 since that last success but she's been placed twice over C&D and didn't get any luck when favourite here (fifth of nine) last Monday; could be a big factor if she gets the breaks this time and she's in the mix off a dangerous mark; blinkers removed. |

C&D winner last October; 0-8 this year but there have been some good runs along the way, including over C&D in July; well beaten on turf last time but can do better now dropped into a Class 5 with blinkers tried. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Low-mileage 4yo who is holding his form well in handicaps, third of nine at Chelmsford (7f) in October; needs considering after a break. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

6f winner who still has low mileage and a generally consistent record; close second upped to 7f on Lingfield AW most recently; unexposed over this trip; highly respected. |

7 (2) |
12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Won 6f AW maiden at Chelmsford in February; some fair handicap runs since and, as he was picking up nicely late on in a recent Racing League race on Wolverhampton AW, he looks worth a go at 7f; can be involved. |

Won a 7f AW handicap in February; two solid AW runs (6f) in July and he should go well back on turf; rain won't hurt his chance. |
8/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner who showed more back on Tapeta last time, when drawn wide and inclined to hang right at Wolverhampton; remains pretty consistent and is on a competitive mark, so there are positives. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (11) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has nine career wins, the most recent at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February off 2lb lower; should be better for his fourth of eight at Lingfield (6f, soft) last month and has won off 8lb higher when in his prime; not out of this. |

On a competitive mark on his AW form for James Tate but yet to show as much on turf, including for this yard last twice. |
50/1 |
|
8th 1 (6) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
On a competitive mark on his AW form for James Tate; yet to show as much on turf, including on stable debut at Chester (6f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; stamina not assured either. |
20/1 |
|
10th 11 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won four times on AW for James Tate; good second at Southwell (6f) when last seen in April; sold for 13,000gns later that month; switching to turf is the obvious concern as he has been unplaceed in three previous runs on grass. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific winner, mainly over 6f, the latest when 2lb higher at Catterick (6f, good) in April; went close when on this mark in successive starts last month, before a below-par effort in a big-field York sprint latest; player if he can bounce back. |
7/1 |
|
20th 6 (18) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner; runner-up on his last two starts but this is more competitive and more minor money may be his best hope. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Not the force of old but won over C&D (good) off 2lb higher in April and last week's second at Epsom (6f, good to firm) confirms he's back in form; bold show likely. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three C&D runs, winning two (soft and good to firm) and a solid third of eight last month; made the running and faded at Chester since but he's better judged on the earlier runs; on the premises. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Notched a fourth success of 2026 at Salisbury (6f) in August and posted another good effort with third of eight there (6f) eight days ago; handles this track well and has won on soft ground so must enter calculations. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins this year include two over C&D (soft/good to firm), which makes him 2-2 here; normally reliable sort who can be excused his sixth at Windsor last time, when he was one of two that pursued a fruitless exploration of the far rail; could well bounce back. |

16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has won four times, including this race in 2024 off a 2lb higher mark than today's, and bounced back from a lesser effort when third of seven at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) last time; on a handy mark but unproven on ground slower than good. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
The step up to 7f didn't bear fruit at Haydock three weeks ago but she had been placed in 6f handicaps in her two previous starts; 2lb lower than for her last win; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
10th 5 (8) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Came from the back of the field to win here (6f, good) last July and she's been a good third on her last two starts (6f, good/good to firm); kept on well at Newbury last time and now has a belated second crack at 7f, which is well worth a go; she's one to consider. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Off the mark for the year with her win at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in August; wore first-time cheekpieces at Newmarket (6f, good) nine days ago and she ran well for second; another 1lb higher today but foolish to discount. |
15/2 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Well beaten in the Portland at Doncaster 12 days ago, having won that 5.6f handicap 12 months earlier; however, she won at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) two starts ago and is fine at 6f and on good/good to firm ground; this front-runner is not discounted in first-time cheekpieces. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
9-38, her latest success coming when beating three rivals off 2lb lower at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) in June; just as effective over this trip and was poorly drawn when well held at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last time; not dismissed. |
6/1 |
|
10th 9 (13) |
31st Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2024 in fine form, winning three AW handicaps between September and November; off the mark for 2025 when keeping on strongly to win an uncompetitive four-runner event at Salisbury last month; respectable third at Newmarket 13 days ago; drawn widest and likely vulnerable. |
12/1 |
|
5 (2) |
18th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three 6f AW wins last autumn and back on the scoresheet in four-runner handicap at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last month; inconsistent this year and in a tougher race today, but she's nevertheless respected up 4lb. |

Fully exposed but always dangerous when getting a strong pace to chase and this is much easier than at Goodwood last time; has form here. |
10/1 |
|
12th 12 (11) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won at Goodwood (5f, good) in the spring and has remained in form, second of seven at Lingfield last time; no obvious reason why he won't be thereabouts again but he's fully exposed after 52 starts. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 1-20 on turf but that win was off 1lb lower at Goodwood in May; hasn't matched that form in three subsequent runs but he ran into a well-handicapped rival when a 4l second at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last time; now drops back into a Class 5 event and he's not ruled out. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Difficult to recommend judged on last five starts, in which he's beaten very few opponents; supporters will cling to the hope that blinkers (replacing a visor) will help and that his two successes have come at Catterick. |

22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Below par on his last four starts, but Catterick (5f, good) a fortnight ago was a step back in the right direction and he won there (6f, good to soft) in July on his last encounter with slow ground; not ruled out. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

9st 12lb |
All three wins have been on AW and latest was at Chelmsford (6f) in January; now 4lb lower than for that success but he's been tailed off in last two runs (turf/Tapeta) and needs a major revival. |

31st Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Better on AW than turf and wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Ascot run (reportedly unsuited by the fast ground); 2lb lower than for his Chelmsford win in January (6f); not discounted. |

12 (5) |
11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Won three times on AW over the winter and now back to the last winning mark; more to prove on turf though and others have greater potential. |
