7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Bounced back from some lesser efforts when making all and scoring comfortably from a subsequent winner at Ripon (6f, good) 19 days ago; the visor may have helped and although similar tactics may not be so easy in this field, he doesn't have to lead; much respected from 6lb higher. |

9st 2lb |
Won three times last year (5f/6f, good/good to firm/AW), the third when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; disappointing this season, last time unseating his rider at the start in first-time visor which is retained. |

Had a solid 2025, winning three times (5f/6f), but hasn't finished in the first eight this year; dropping in the weights but needs to turn a corner; perhaps a change of headgear will help. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Progressive form in the spring, following a ready Brighton win with an emphatic success at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) on handicap debut; ran no sort of race when favourite at Newmarket's July meeting last time but has had two months off and now reappears in cheekpieces; may still be unexposed. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
2-2 since faced with 6f on fast ground, following his ready Brighton win with an emphatic success at Doncaster on his handicap debut eight weeks ago; while that latest form hasn't been especially well advertised, he looked a smart prospect and has a major chance despite an 11lb rise. |
8/1 |
|
5 (4) |
17th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Chased home a notable opponent at Wolverhampton in December (7f); beaten at odds-on at Catterick on his return to action but he made no mistake dropped to 6f at Brighton 18 days ago; more on his plate in a handicap but could well have more to offer. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Infrequent winner nowadays; faded into fifth of 13 at Hamilton four weeks ago; well below his last winning mark but that reflects a decline in his form. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Only won one of his last 28 starts but has slid to a competitive mark as a result and was unlucky not to finish closer behind The Good Biscuit and Jonny Concrete at Chester (hampered late); holds each-way claims. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |

He hasn't been at his best in recent starts but he has dipped to a dangerous mark and he has landed a good draw; this is a tough race in which to try and turn things around though. |

Sixth to Kats Bob in this race 12 months ago; made a winning return at Southwell in April but disappointing at Ripon next time and needs to bounce back. |
20/1 |
|
7th 1 (1) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft ground; won at Thirsk (6f, good) last spring and recorded his second AW win on his Southwell reappearance last month; up 4lb but he still looks feasibly treated and should get a good tow into this race; key player. |
3/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a whimper but he has slipped back down the weights as a consequence; won on last year's reappearance and also ran a fine race after a 175-day layoff in 2024 so unlikely to be lacking in fitness; one to consider. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
First handicap win when he scored at Windsor in August and he'd dropped to the same mark when registering another win over that C&D (also good to firm) 25 days ago; 2lb nudge but everything that's come out of that race has run well subsequently, including wins for the runner-up and ninth, and he's firmly considered in his follow-up bid. |
9/2 |
|
1st 7 (14) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won a C&D handicap off this mark last August and when second at Thirsk the following month he split rivals who won the Portland and Ayr Bronze Cup on their next starts; beaten favourite over C&D five weeks ago but he had a torrid run through in a messy race; drawn widest but he's well handicapped. |
6/1 |
|
8th 5 (2) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Veteran who still retains most of his ability and gave a good account when keeping-on second of 21 at York (6f, good) last month; still only 1lb higher than for C&D (heavy) win in October and will be favoured by any rain. |
13/2 |

2nd 5 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Veteran who retains plenty of ability; fourth in big field at Doncaster on return and fared best of those drawn high when seventh over C&D next time; back to his last winning mark and impossible to discount. |
10/1 |

7th 22 (18) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

10yo who may prefer slow ground but the going was good when he was fourth of 21 in this in 2024; often runs well here and he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March; each-way possible. |

Close up on consecutive outings in May (5f/6f) and also ran well when sixth of 21 at York (6f, good; behind Woven) last month; still on a workable mark and ought to be in the thick of things again. |

9st 9lb |
Got up late to win Bath novice (5f, good to firm) for Andrew Balding in June; 0-9 for this yard (majority 6f, turf/AW) and first-time cheekpieces (removed) didn't spark an improved effort last time; career-low mark and second go at this trip (first is easily excused) the straws to clutch at. |

Won her first two starts in handicaps last summer and had excuses off her revised mark latterly; a surprise maiden win on comeback last spring gives hope as she returns from eight months off and she remains low mileage. |
8/1 |
|

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Progressive type with three 6f wins from six attempts, the latest at Carlisle (good to soft) in July; another fine effort when beaten 1l at Haydock (7f, good to firm; pulled hard) last month; this switch back to sprinting looks a positive move and she's high on the list again. |
15/2 |

10th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 4 |

Record is 3-5, all wins over 6f, latest at the stiff Carlisle (good to soft); pedigree suggests this return to 7f is worth exploring; commands respect with further improvement plausible. |

11th 6 (17) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Keeps getting better and signed off his 4yo campaign by beating Woven a neck in the Ayr Bronze Cup (6f, soft) last autumn; made a pleasing return to action when fourth at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; that should have blown away the cobwebs and, with his usual cheekpieces now returning, he looks ready to strike. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (6) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |

In fine form last summer, culminating in her Portland win off a 2lb higher mark; slow to come to hand this year but much better dropped back to Class 4 company on her last two starts; this is tougher than the fillies' handicap in which she finished second last week but she is a major player all the same. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |

Progressed well once handicapping as a 4yo and kicked on again last season, landing a hat-trick in late summer, latterly here off 2lb higher; not at her best in the spring but this is her time of year and she offered more latest; respected. |

Got on a roll in the second half of 2025, completing a quick hat-trick when landing the Portland Handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good) in September; yet to get going this year and drop in class isn't enough to tempt. |
