2nd 11 (9) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Scored six times, mostly at Ayr, last season; beaten only a neck, despite being out 4lb of the weights, at Musselburgh five days ago; holds a fighting chance, back off proper mark. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Six wins in 2025 over a range of trips (7f-1m2f) and ground; encouraging reappearance over C&D but not so good since and doubtful whether today will be the day from out of the weights. |

4th 6 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won four times here (7f-1m, good to firm-heavy) last year and showed career-best form when second in valuable Musselburgh handicap (1m1f, good) on seasonal debut in April; two lesser efforts have followed (1m-1m4f) but he still enters calculations. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Took this prize 12 months ago and she's back in excellent form of late, scoring at Carlisle (1m) before third of seven over C&D 26 days ago; merits serious consideration in her follow-up bid. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three wins overall include a comfortable C&D success last July on her only race at Pontefract; back near her best when winning at Carlisle (1m, soft; probably fine on good to firm) 13 days ago and looks a leading contender despite going back up 3lb. |
7/2 |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Solid spell of form last term featured two wins and three second-place finishes; has gone rather off the boil since but a revival would give her good claims off current mark. |

3rd 6 (4) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Gained first win since his 2yo days when making all in a Class 6 over C&D last week (blinkered first time); unlikely to get a soft lead this time and a 5lb penalty against stronger opposition demands more in any case. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won maiden claimer for Tony Mullins in August 2024 (1m, good); hasn't won since but a few fair runs for new yard, including when third at Carlisle in June (1m1f, soft); blinkers now tried; fast ground is a concern. |
3/1 |

5th 7 (6) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Poor strike-rate but he ended 2025 in good form and he ran his best race of this campaign when third over 1m1f here last week; runs off the same mark and he is one to take seriously. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won back-to-back 1m handicaps at Nottingham and Ripon in April and continues in good form, runner-up in 1m1f handicap at Musselburgh 12 days ago; can go well again nudged up 1lb. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Landed his fifth win on turf, at Ripon (1m, good; made all) in April; ran okay at Hamilton (1m1f, good) 18 days ago when trying to dominate but was pestered; needs to be able to have his own way up front to be seen to best effect and there are others here who may take him on. |
9/2 |
|
4th 5 (9) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Made all twice in a row in April (8.3f/1m, good); down the field at York (7f, good) but that was in a big field and he raced wide; could bounce back with a bold show if conditions suit (well beaten on soft going last November but displayed signs of promise on such ground early in career). |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 211y |
9st 6lb |
Second runner for yard; six-time winner in Britain; only glimpses of peak form since second in a claimer early last season, including third over C&D off 9lb higher; seventh of 16 over 1m at Gowran on seasonal debut; place chance. |
9/1 |

7th 5 (9) |
1st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
A winner of six races when trained in Britain but failed to hit the frame for this stable last season; on a dangerous mark but lacks a run and likely best watched. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Returned to form with a brave win at Epsom (1m2f, good) 19 days ago and he backed that up with a creditable third at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm); a 2lb rise has now kicked in but he remains feasibly treated and should go well again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (6) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Got back on track for first success with this yard at Epsom (1m2f, good) last Wednesday; runs off the same mark here as that was a race confined to apprentices and he should be in the shake-up once more. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 (7) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Encouraging stable debut when second of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) hasn't been built on, although latest 8l defeat when fourth of 14 at Redcar (7f) came when the first two home raced alone; from the family of an Oaks winner so there's hope on pedigree that this new trip might help. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Oldest contender in this field; gained last five wins on Newcastle AW and hasn't scored on turf for three years; brings mixed recent handicap form to classified debut. |

Veteran (13-103), latest win C&D (from 5lb higher) on New Year's Day; out of sorts lately, so perhaps age is beginning to catch up with him. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Veteran with plenty of course form to his name; third of nine over 1m here last week (winner Runninsonofagun runs in the 4.00); one of three runners for the stable. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 9 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Veteran who has won three of his 58 races on turf, the latest over this trip at Musselburgh last September (good); has been a bit disappointing this season. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Veteran who is a C&D winner but has question marks over current form and whether he's still capable of cutting any mustard aged ten; gives classified grade a whirl. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ran well from out of the handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last week, poaching a big lead but reeled in close home; whether she can repeat that form in this bigger field remains to be seen. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winner under both codes in 2024; creditable second over 1m1f at Musselburgh in April but below that level since, including weakening when stepped back up to around 1m4f last time. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |

Winner under both codes in 2024 but hasn't convinced when going beyond 1m1f on the Flat previously. |
