2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Best coming off a solid pace, as was the scenario when a winner last week at Southwell (1m, AW); 4lb well in with no penalty to carry. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
No win since last September but he's fallen in the weights and looked much more competitive again on last two outings, under Cara Tuke on first occasion; has a bit more to prove here but not totally dismissed. |
7/1 |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Newcastle win this time last year came off a 7lb higher mark; well backed on the drop to this company at Carlisle a few weeks ago, when faring much better, and is one to consider (likely to be dropped in as usual from the outside stall). |

29th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Just 2-33 on the AW but proved game when scoring by half a length at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) 12 days ago; only 2lb higher and likely to go well again. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Modest strike-rate of 1-32 on the AW, and that was at Newcastle, but he does act well over this C&D, having been involved in tight finishes in two of his three attempts and placed in the other; weighted to go well. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Frequent slow starter who's consistent but hard to win with and who will always need things to fall just so; on a fair mark, though, under Billy Loughnane (ordinary 2-33 for the yard), having run well over C&D early in the month. |

11th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 4f 65y |
9st 1lb |
Won a Newbury handicap for Sir Michael Stoute in 2024 off 81 (1m2f, good); has come down in the world; poor on AW and modest on turf this year. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
All six wins have been on Tapeta, including three over C&D; well treated on his best form last year and he went close off this mark over C&D (Rubellite third) last Thursday; that was his second run after a break and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Three C&D wins to his name; should be sharper for his recent return to action and he'll appreciate both dropping into Class 6 and returning to a longer trip; one to consider. |
100/30 |
|
4th 8 (1) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
2lb below last winning mark and although not seen in six months, has won after a similar absence; has run well in all four starts over C&D, but all six wins have come over 1m4f (three here) so he wouldn't want a dawdle over this trip. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Has been performing better on the AW than on turf during the past year, winning a selling handicap easily over C&D in July and finishing second of nine back here (1m5f) a week later; one for the shortlist. |
3/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Dual turf winner at 1m2f and 1m3f for Charlie Johnston last spring; back to form in winning a 1m4f selling handicap on the AW earlier this month and was then second under a penalty; 3lb higher now but should be fine back on turf. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 9 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Dual turf winner at 1m2f and 1m3f for Charlie Johnston last spring; has had some struggles since but he got back to form with a bang when winning by 7l here (1m4f, AW) last Monday; that was off a tumbling mark and he's a major player if he can repeat that form under a penalty. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Not particularly solid on his form (three attempts) for new stable and is 0-5 on turf, with both wins on AW; on a reduced mark but isn't the percentage call. |
20/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won off 3lb higher at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) last March but he's not matched that form since and was beaten 6l over C&D and at Redcar (1m2f) last month; hasn't been with Ruth Carr for long but he needs to raise his game back on AW. |
14/1 |
|
6 (4) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dual AW winner for the Newland/Insole stable; changed hands for 9,000gns in July and his sixth of eight on stable debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 16 days ago was a little more encouraging than it seems; needs a step forward, though, and soft ground would be a query. |

Without a win since October 2023; ran well at Doncaster in August but well beaten in three runs since; visor now joins the tongue-tie. |

|
7th 4 (6) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Runner-up off 1lb higher at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) last month, but he's struggled in both subsequent runs and overall record is now 1-30. |
33/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Heavy defeats in two AW starts, both on this track in 2025; more of the same for much of this year and although there were more hopeful signs in midsummer, he was said to have never travelled when tailed off at Redcar last time. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Patchy form of late, his easy win at Haydock (1m2f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in July flanked by modest efforts on the AW (has run well on Tapeta); not sure what to expect. |
16/1 |
|
8th 2 (8) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt with a convincing success at Haydock (1m2f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in July; up 7lb and will need to show he can also do it back on the AW, but something may have clicked; shortlisted. |
15/8 |
|
6 (6) |
19th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent maiden (1m-1m6f) who has the hood refitted, also going in a first-time tongue-tie, having again pulled hard last time; this mark should be within range if settling but therein lies the gamble. |
8/1 |
