4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Hamilton (6f, good) last month on second start back from a break and the neck runner-up went one better there next time; he's used to plying to his trade in a lower grade but is not discounted up just 2lb. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Carlisle winner on debut in June 2023 (5f, good to firm); gained another win at Wolverhampton in January (5f) and fair run back on turf when fourth at Pontefract last time (6f); a possible, but perhaps better at shorter. |

Only turf win came at Carlisle on debut in June 2023 (5f, good to firm); won again at Wolverhampton in January (5f) but may just need this after 122-day break. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
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. |

In good form on AW earlier in the year; unplaced both starts since returning to turf this summer and others have stronger claims. |
10/1 |

7th 6 (8) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Suited by 5f on a stiff track (two of his three wins have been at Beverley); fair fifth at Beverley with a visor tried last time (5f, good; pulled hard); regular cheekpieces back on here but soft ground a negative. |
12/1 |

5th 3 (1) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Won over 6f at Southwell in January and two sound efforts after that; C&D record is 121, both wins on fast ground last term; visor replaces cheekpieces; well drawn; chance. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Course winner who is well handicapped on last season's form and is one to watch in the betting; however, he finished down the field on his three starts this spring and needs to turn things around. |
16/1 |
|
9th 11 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Best known as a 5f performer but has won over 6f; always behind on last month's reappearance outing and finished last of six after racing too freely in refitted cheekpieces a fortnight later (also 5f); on good mark but needs to get his season up and running. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
6yo who has enjoyed a renaissance in 2026, winning twice (5f, AW/good) and posting a close second at Ripon (5f, good) latest; there remains mileage in his mark judged on old form and this course winner is respected. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has a record of 2-4 this term and scored over C&D (good) most recently; creeping back up the weights but remains well handicapped on historical data (peak mark was 15lb higher); major contender. |
9/2 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Resumed winning ways on AW at Newcastle (5f; beating stablemate Herakles) in April; ran well from this revised mark at Pontefract (5f; third, reportedly bled from the nose) subsequently; trainer won this in 2021, 2022, and 2024, so he's one to have on the shortlist. |

In good form on turf in the spring but 0-12 and hasn't matched that in five starts since, including when never travelling back on AW latest. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

In good form on turf in the spring but he's 0-11 and hasn't matched that in four starts since, latterly in cheekpieces when well held at Beverley last time; handicapper's relenting, though. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who also finished third in this last year; has been in good nick since the visor went on, winning a classified at Southwell and Newcastle (February/March) and placed in three handicaps (also 5f, AW) subsequently; can take a grip so today's likely good pace will suit and he gets on well with Conor Whiteley; player. |
9/2 |

3rd 1 (9) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won classified events over C&D in February and at Newcastle in March; placed in handicap company on both starts since, latest when a close third of 13 here 13 days; good claims once again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won classified events over C&D and at Newcastle (penalised) before being brushed aside by Little Mi Mi at Newcastle three weeks ago; a 5lb turnaround in the weights should see things finish closer today. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Flexible regarding the going; had mixed results since winning at Pontefract (5f, soft) last October, but he wasn't far away after making the running at Ripon recently and is now 2lb lower than that last winning mark; probably needs a bit more. |
13/2 |

5th 8 (7) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Well backed when winning a 5f handicap at Pontefract (soft) last October but hasn't matched that since, including beating only one home over C&D three weeks ago; back on the mark he defied at Pontefract but would need to see money for him again. |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Four wins last May-July, with no joy since; he finished close up four and five starts back, acts on soft and is edging down the weights, but he was never dangerous in Westgate Warrior's C&D race two weeks ago. |

Four wins last May-July, with no joy since but he finished close up three and four starts back (his last two runs at 5f) before two lesser shows over 6f; beaten a head off this mark over C&D (good) in August, so a case can be made. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate and he hasn't been at his best since finishing second at Southwell in October; slipping down the weights but others arrive in better form. |

|
10th 10 (1) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Just one win from his 21 starts but he was twice a runner-up over C&D last autumn and he is now 4lb lower than for the second of those efforts; recent runs need bettering if he is to take this though. |
16/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Just one win from 17 starts (5.5f, good to firm; off 3lb lower mark) but he comes here on the back of two good second-place finishes at Southwell; clear of the third on latter occasion and a 2lb rise justified; should be in the thick of it. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
11-race maiden; good efforts at Redcar and Ripon in midsummer (6f; first two runs in cheekpieces) but it has been a struggle more recently; change of headgear may help but Tim Easterby saddles more obvious contenders. |
25/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
0-10 and last two runs have been well below par; the hope is that he regularly shows speed over 6f/7f and hasn't had a go at 5f since his 2yo days; not without hope off career-low mark. |
20/1 |
|
6 (4) |
8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Nine-race maiden but he had been threatening prior to a disappointing effort at Ripon three weeks ago; feasible mark if bouncing back. |
