11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
9yo who was down the field at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time but was running consistently well prior to that; this C&D winner has an each-way chance if bouncing back. |
25/1 |
|
9th 1 (10) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Dropped into a Class 3 when making all at Windsor (extended 1m3f, good to firm) and well beaten off this 5lb higher mark at Newmarket; he can be up and down, and could finish only eighth in this last year. |
12/1 |
|
8th 4 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Often front-runner; won well over C&D on good to firm last July; somewhat back down the weights and in class when winning another Class 3 in seven-runner race at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm; made all) last Saturday in good style; back up 5lb for this Class 2 but each-way claims. |
12/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
A two-time 1m4f scorer in 2025; returned from a spell in Meydan with a solid fifth of 12 in 1m3f handicap at Carlisle four weeks ago; not out of things with Billy Loughnane now up. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Close third over C&D in May since when he's been up against it in Class 2s won by a Group horse and then the John Smith's Cup, in which he ran perfectly well for a 66-1 chance; very capable of a big show, though the cheekpieces are new and so too is Donagh Murphy claiming 7lb. |
8/1 |
|
8th 10 (17) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Back to form with close third of six at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May; however, only seventh of 16 at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last time on ground he should have handled; can be slowly away; others preferred. |
33/1 |
|
7th 11 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Failed to figure from the widest draw behind Respond at Chester (went well there previously) on reappearance but a close third of six when favourite at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) 11 days ago; with a good soft-ground record too, he could be a major player. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Scored twice in 2024 and three times in 2025; back to best when second in useful 1m handicap here (good to firm; acts on soft) last month but only eighth of 11 at Thirsk since and his peak RPRs (including all wins) have been achieved at about 1m. |
16/1 |
|
8th 8 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Scored twice in 2024 and three times in 2025; gradually back to form this season, creditable second in useful handicap at York (1m) most recently; appears to be on his way to regaining the winning thread and looks a must for the shortlist. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 10 (12) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won three times last year (including on good to firm ground) and he returned to form with 2l fourth of 11 at Newcastle (1m, AW) recently; could build on that latest performance and he might not be far away. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Currently in a progressive vein of form and justified favouritism at Ripon (1m) most recently, making it three wins from last five outings and taking overall record to 5-14; difficult to dismiss. |
9/1 |
|
1st 2 (8) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Handy sort who has won twice this summer, at Sandown (1m2f, good) and Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW); ran well when third of nine off this mark at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) 11 days ago, but has something to prove back in trip. |
4/1 |
|
5 (4) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Made the running for three of his four wins, one over 1m2f at Sandown in June (from Andaleep on good ground; unraced on firmer); just hung on when back on AW at Wolverhampton (9.4f) two weeks ago and raised another 2lb since but needs respect on the back of a career best. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Triple AW winner who is 0-24 on turf but he ran well to finish second behind an unexposed improver at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) 11 days ago; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won off today's mark on Polytrack here (1m2f) in April; not quite at same level on turf since but was persistently denied clear run when fourth of six at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm; behind Percival) nine days ago and has possibilities if his luck improves. |
7/2 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in April and he produced one of his better turf runs when close fifth of eight at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last time; however, a record of 0-22 on grass doesn't inspire confidence. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Unraced on softer than good; latest seventh of 17 to Al Aali at Glorious Goodwood was respectable but took his handicap record to 0-9; others are preferred for win purposes again. |
18/1 |
|
7th 17 (10) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
0-8 in handicaps but runner-up in three (two at 1m2f) and ran respectably when fourth at Newmarket on latest start; short of room when well held at this meeting last year; new cheekpieces join the tongue-tie. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's 0-7 in handicaps but runner-up in three, including when short-headed in this race last year (good to firm) and when returning to form at Ripon (1m2f, good) last time; could be bang there once more. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Ended an 18-race losing run when beating three rivals at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in July and ran well when second of eight at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; all his best form has come on good/good to firm ground, though. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 7 (8) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won four-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) last month and close fourth of 15 at York (1m, good to firm) next time; caught wide early and failed to settle when mid-division in competitive handicap at Haydock (1m, good) last Saturday so that run can be forgiven; not discounted. |
20/1 |
|
7th 13 (12) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Had slipped in the weights before winning at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in July, and he ran at least as well over 1m at York next time; should be thereabouts again. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Veteran who drew a blank in 2025; latest midfield finish over C&D needs bettering but he has slipped to a lowly mark. |
12/1 |
|
3 (4) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Often leads; won this race (soft) off this mark last year but his form has dipped noticeably since two creditable thirds in June; last time's Racing League appearance can be forgiven, however, and he's not totally dismissed back here. |
12/1 |
