10st 0lb |
Got her head back in front at Ayr in August over this trip on quick ground; backed that up with good second on AW off 10lb higher, despite racing keenly; 4lb lower turf mark here so demands respect and drying ground will help. |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Musselburgh specialist who scored by 3l there (1m5f, good) in July but she's struggled at Hamilton and Ayr since; has plenty to prove again and she's not shown much in two previous AW runs. |
20/1 |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won by 3l at Musselburgh (1m5f, good) in July and remains on a handy mark; she's run some good races here but her last four wins have come at Musselburgh and she was well beaten at Hamilton (1m3f, soft) last time. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
On a long losing run (last win was at Ayr in July 2024) but he has run a few creditable races this year; has a bit to find with Royal Blaze on their C&D form last month. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (9) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple course winner (1m/1m2f) but his last success was 14 months ago and he struggled here last time; on dangerous mark but he's been hard to predict this season and others are preferred. |
20/1 |
|
10th 3 (1) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not disgraced when third of eight to Jewel Maker in 1m Carlisle handicap a week ago; this C&D winner is one for the shortlist. |

15th Oct 2026 Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Very modest on the Flat nowadays and soundly beaten at 250-1 on hurdle debut over C&D (good) three weeks ago; it's best to look elsewhere. |
200/1 |
|
6th 10 |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Lowly rated three-time Flat winner (7f-1m2f); hasn't managed to beat too many rivals in her last three starts (1m2f-1m3f); no reason to expect better, in a refitted hood, on hurdles debut. |
100/1 |
|
9th 8 (3) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Last two wins have been at Ayr, the most recent coming over 1m2f last summer, but she's been well held there on her last two starts; others preferred. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Scored four times here in 2025, including over this trip (soft) under Clifford Lee at this meeting; yet to fire this season but ran a bit better last time and dangerous to dismiss having returned to his last successful mark. |
10/1 |
|

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Scored four times here (three over C&D) in 2025; yet to fire this season however and never threatened when sixth of nine over 1m here three weeks ago. |
50/1 |
|
6th 3 (8) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won four handicaps here (1m-1m2f, good or slower) in the second half of 2025; yet to fire this time around and may need both slower ground and further help from the handicapper. |

14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley and well-held in his two runs for current yard, latest with tongue-tie (retained); has had wind surgery since but hard to fancy. |
14/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
18th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley and was a well-held fifth of ten on stable debut here (7f, good) last Monday; still unexposed but he needs improvement with a tongue-tie added at this new trip. |
9/1 |
|
11 (4) |
11th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
No impact in five runs for Adrian Keatley, most recently when third of four in a Musselburgh handicap (1m1f, good) last month; still early days but he needs improvement back in trip for new yard. |
