2nd 9 (14) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
In-form mare who is bidding for her fourth win this season, the third coming at Ripon last time when beating Spioradalta (now 4lb better off) by 1.5l; stays this trip well; on a career-high mark but the race should be run to suit her and she has a good chance. |
5/1 |
|
1st 6 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
5yo mare whose form has gone to a new level this season, with wins at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) and Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) sandwiching a runner-up finish at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm); she may be the type who only just does enough and therefore she could have more still left in the tank. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
All three wins have been at 1m2f and, although she has run well at 1m3f, this far might be a stretch; if she did last out then would have a chance in current form on ground she handles; Arron D'Arcy's claim eases her career-high mark. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran with ten wins to his name; behind some of these on two visits to York this summer but wasn't disgraced in a C&D handicap 15 days ago on a rare foray over this far; could have some part to play. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (6) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
In the veteran stage now but his two runs at York this term prove he still retains ability, latterly when sticking on into midfield in valuable 10.5f event a fortnight ago; his sole start at 1m4f (in December 2024) returned his best RPR and this second attempt is well worth another go. |
16/1 |
|
11th 14 (22) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Did well to finish fifth of 16 over C&D (good) on reappearance four weeks ago having been hampered soon after the start and raced wide; however, he goes well fresh so may not improve for that outing, and it's likely this 9yo will be vulnerable against numerous unexposed contenders. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who won on handicap/seasonal debut at Redcar (1m2f, good) in April and bounced back from two lesser runs to win at Ayr (1m2f, soft) in a first-time hood; could have more to offer in the headgear. |
10/1 |

1st 3 (8) |
6th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Won going away at Redcar (good) on handicap/seosonal debut; couple of duck eggs at York since; chance of a rebound depends on how well he responds to first-time hood. |
16/1 |
|
12th 7 (4) |
13th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Justified favouritism on handicap/seasonal debut at Redcar (1m2f, good) in April but he finished tailed off over 1m4f here next time and was always in rear in that race; still unexposed after only five starts but he needs to bounce back after that major blip. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Rattled off a four-timer (good to firm/good/soft) in 2024 and landed his first two starts of 2025, latterly the City & Suburban (also 1m2f) at Epsom in April; just one good run from four starts in Meydan this winter but his British return, when second at Goodwood with two of these behind six weeks ago, could be a run to build on. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 9 (11) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Dual winner last spring (including over C&D) and comes here in good nick after a spell in Meydan; he's not discounted. |
8/1 |
|
1 (9) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Ran in snatches and reportedly hung right when well beaten at Haydock latest; something to prove after that but progressive previously, winning twice in the spring (1m2f, good), and could bounce back with a big run. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he failed to justify favouritism in a similar event at Catterick (1m4f, good) last time, with the reopposing Star Start a place ahead of him second; however, his record in recent years suggests that going softer than good is ideal for him nowadays and this is the first time he's faced such conditions since a respectable reappearance off a much higher mark in the spring; considered. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Just one win to his name since June 2023 and he has found it tough going so far in 2026; he has slipped a long way in the weights though and today's drop in class will help; not discounted. |
9/2 |
|
5th 7 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won once each in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 but has not scored since and this season he's not at all been the force of old; wore cheekpieces on last two outings, with a respectable show on first occasion; the last of his three AW races was in 2024; unpersuasive. |

Has posted some good efforts this season but is without a win since September 2024, and finished behind Amidst The Chaos at Doncaster last time; visor returns and he has an each-way chance. |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 (1) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Winless since 2024 but in good form this season until last of six (in refitted cheekpieces) in 1m2f Epsom handicap 16 days ago; headgear is quickly dispensed with and this course scorer is the sort to bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Without a win since 2024 but earns good marks for his consistency in recent months and lost out only by a head off today's mark at Ripon (1m2f, good) in June; probably won't be far away. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Useful on the Flat and ran in last year's Derby; hasn't won a race since but he ran okay to be second on his hurdle debut at Worcester (2m, good) and going up in trip here could suit. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Useful on the Flat at his best; has regressed and become inconsistent in this sphere but seemed to respond well to first-time blinkers when third at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm; RPR 79) last month; sports refitted cheekpieces for this hurdling debut; can feature if all goes to plan. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried after winning Lingfield maiden (AW) in April last year and he bounced back from a swing at the Derby when going close at Thirsk (also 1m4f, good) in July; that form would make him a handicap snip but it's been a real struggle since and blinkers are now reached for; only considered if the market warms to him. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |

Debut at Ayr last September remains his only win but three of his last four starts (two over 1m2f at Ayr, one C&D) suggest he is capable of getting seriously involved. |
7/2 |
|
8 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won 2yo debut here (1m, good) last September and clear second behind well-handicapped winner in handicap over this C&D (good) in July; has shown promise on good to soft (unraced on softer); close fifth at York 11 days ago and he could play a leading role now back here. |
5/1 |
|
10 (10) |
7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Second to an unexposed Haggas horse at Ayr before racing too freely for his own good when favourite for a Racing League handicap at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft); if giving himself a better chance here he might not be far away. |

Can take a hold so needs a good pace to aim at, which he had when winning at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in August; still 2lb higher, but this may also be run to suit him so very much frame material. |
20/1 |

4th 7 (4) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |

Below par on AW last time; largely respectable form on turf otherwise this season, notably Windsor success in August; possibly has very little in hand off current mark, however. |
14/1 |

10 (1) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
The latest of three turf wins was at Windsor (1m2f) two weeks ago; one respectable effort on dirt at Jebel Ali in early 2024 but unraced on AW in Britain and he likely needs something new for Tapeta if he's to defy his current mark. |

Seven wins this year (1m-1m4f, including on good to soft; unraced on softer) and looked better than ever when close third of 11 at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) last time; in the mix if handling the ground. |
15/2 |

2 (1) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Can make the running; highly progressive 4yo until a lesser result at Ayr on latest outing but being hampered at the start seemed to scupper him; had seven wins May-August and went mighty close at the Doncaster St Leger meeting last month; 5lb higher today but he remains one for the shortlist. |
100/30 |
|
10 (10) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Highly progressive 4yo who made it seven wins from his last nine starts when scoring at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last month, and he was a close second of 14 off this mark at Doncaster last Thursday (1m4f, good to soft; unraced on softer); reappears before 5lb rise kicks in and holds very solid claims. |

Knocking at the door prior to winning in small field at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month; soundly beaten fourth at Sandown since but that wasn't run to suit her hold-up style; this 3yo has an each-way chance. |
