1st 3 (3) |
24th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Recorded his sixth win when swooping late to justify support at Chester (10.3f, good to soft) two weeks ago; up 3lb but remains feasibly treated on his best form and two of his wins have come on Tapeta; key player. |

1st 6 (4) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time winner; yet to strike in 2026 but he retains all his ability and only went down narrowly behind Zambezi Magic at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) 11 days ago; 4lb better off for a neck today; one of the likelier ones. |

2nd 3 (4) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
No win on turf since successful over C&D (good to firm) in July 2024; losing run up to 12, but 4lb below his last winning mark and has won on soft ground; shortlisted. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D scorer who is without a win in over four years; returned from an absence when 28-1 and beaten over 6l at Ripon (1m2f, good) last month; on a dangerous mark if back in better form. |
4/1 |
|
6th 8 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner but it has been over four years since she last put her head in front; retained ability last summer but she has been absent for 366 days and others look safer. |
25/1 |
|
4 (6) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Five of her six wins have been here, the latest off 20lb higher in July 2022; mixed form this season, but chance on her C&D third in May. |

3rd 7 (4) |
28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
C&D win last September came off 3lb higher; always deep from stall 12 when running below market expectations here a fortnight ago when behind Baloo's Blues and should fare better. |
8/1 |
|
10th 6 (12) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
His two wins (from 21 races) came in a row last year, latterly in this race; 1lb lower today and second at Chepstow on latest start was his best show this season, so he's one for the shortlist despite a wide draw. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Is on a losing run of 20 but has been runner-up three times this year; has dropped to a career-low mark and holds place claims. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
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. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
No win since December 2024 (1m4f); weakened from 2f out on recent stable debut at Redcar (1m2f; 14-1, beaten 15l by Woodleigh); possibly needed that first run for 278 days but others are preferred. |
25/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Seb Spencer; dual AW winner who ran a sound race when fourth in Doncaster handicap last August (1m2f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time); no headgear this time and may need the run after 278-day break. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Got back on track in refitted cheekpieces/tongue strap when fourth of seven in 1m2f Doncaster handicap 18 days ago; he needs considering. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has won over 1m2f (good) and about 1m (good to firm) this year; creditable third over C&D (good) on last two outings and likely to be in the mix again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (10) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has won over 1m2f and about 1m this year; still on a fair mark and didn't get the clearest of runs behind Woodleigh here recently; in the mix. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (1) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has won twice this year, at 1m2f and about 1m, but is 2lb above her highest winning mark so probably needs a career best to be successful here. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who holds weak claims on the form she showed last year for new yard; ruled out unless the market speaks positively. |
25/1 |
|
9th 11 (12) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
A modest 1m2f maiden for Geoff Oldroyd but she's shown little in a pair of handicaps at Beverley and Doncaster for her current yard this summer; others are preferred. |
50/1 |
|
7 (7) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Made an encouraging start in handicaps when third at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last March but she's had only two runs since and has finished out the back in both of them; still lightly raced but has plenty to prove on second run for current yard. |
25/1 |
