21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Placed a few times this season, including when favourite at Catterick last time; back up in grade but he's 3lb below last winning mark and seems to have a fighting chance. |

C&D winner off 1lb higher last September; two good runs when third at Ripon in April (5f, good) and at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) last month but he hasn't done as well since. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
String of good runs since returning in May from a 167-day absence, latterly keeping on for second at Redcar (5f, good) three weeks ago; steps back up to 6f for the first time this year and it could suit. |
8/1 |

2nd 9 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
First of two wins came in a novice over 6f here on good to firm; pair of placed efforts in 5f AW handicaps in March but hasn't quite matched that in two 5f handicaps at Thirsk (good/good to firm) since, with reopposing pair Far Above The Law and Spring Is Sprung ahead of him latterly; the first-time cheekpieces he wore last time are left off. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

One of his two wins came over C&D and was a close fifth here a month ago, backing up two good runs on the AW; possibilities, especially should the new cheekpieces give him a lift. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Failed to beat a rival last time, as well as failing to maintain signs of a revival; by no means certain to take advantage of a reduced mark. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |

Seems to be coming steadily back to form, fourth at Hamilton most recently; 10lb below last winning mark and looks a possible danger assuming the resurgence continues. |

8lb lower than when last successful at Thirsk (5f Class 4, good to firm; 6-4 favourite) last August; struggled this season and reared at the start when in rear throughout (behind two of these) at Ripon latest. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won over C&D (good) in April on reappearance before close third at Beverley (5f, good to firm); unplaced on next two starts but she was slowly away when sixth at Musselburgh then drawn widest when fifth at Beverley (5f, good); she's one to consider. |

5th 2 (9) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made winning return under Lewis Chalkley at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and has remained in form, better than the bare result suggests when sixth of seven at Musselburgh (very slowly away) 11 days ago; in the mix. |

Made winning seasonal debut under Lewis Chalkley at Nottingham (5f, good) in April and ran at least as well when close third at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last month; up in grade today but evidently in good nick. |

Better than ever this season and she went 2-3 for the campaign in 11-runner handicap over C&D 11 days ago; showed a good attitude there so merits serious consideration nudged up 2lb. |

1st 2 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

1st 6 (5) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
2-3 at Catterick, fending off Lucius Aurelius there (5f, good to firm; from 4lb higher) in April 2025; 0-8 since but did take a step back in the right direction when third to Betweenthesticks on seasonal reappearance at Pontefract (5f, good; 9-2) four weeks ago; possible player. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Admirable veteran who recorded his 11th win when making all at Nottingham (5f, good) last month; not disgraced at Ripon next time; should make another bold bid. |

Admirable veteran who recorded his 11th win when making all at Nottingham (5f, good) last month; there wasn't much separating the first five but he's only 2lb higher here and should give it another good shot. |

Now 3lb lower than when winning on AW at Newcastle (5f) in January; fair form on turf last twice, latest when 2l fourth at Thirsk (5f, good); has won on fast ground; each-way chance. |

Two AW wins this winter; never in the hunt at Wetherby last month on his return to turf but he is effective over C&D and seems to handle any ground; not ruled out. |

27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

9st 11lb |
Gained a belated first turf success (18th attempt) when getting up on the line at Musselburgh (5f, good) 15 days ago; his record doesn't make him an obvious one to follow up but he should remain competitive off 4lb higher. |
9/2 |

1st 1 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
3-12 on AW compared to 0-17 on turf but last week's second at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) suggests he can pick up a win on the grass off this sort of mark; has to enter calculations, although any easing of the ground possibly not ideal. |
100/30 |

2nd 5 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins have been on the AW at Wolverhampton over 5f but he caught the eye finishing strongly for fourth at Thirsk (5f, good; Irish Dancer was second) nine days ago; possibly an unfortunate loser on that occasion having been hampered against the rail and and could make amends. |

9st 11lb |
Made all over 5f on seasonal debut and finished second on both starts since, latterly under Cara Tuke in 14-runner C&D (soft) contest 16 days ago; evidently in good nick; ought to give another good account. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

He has returned from a break in top form, winning a 5f handicap at Hamilton (good) before a solid second at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago; returning to 6f no issue and he will be fine if it rains; should go well. |
