25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
1-30, the win over C&D from a similar mark last September; lost out in a tight finish to a stablemate of Woodleigh at Beverley (1m2f, good; 4-1) last week; no reason why she shouldn't take the swift turnaround in her stride; possible. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won at Newcastle (1m, AW) last September and she's been effective over this far and on turf in the past; however, she's won just one of her 28 races and has to improve upon this year's form (1m-1m2f). |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |

Dual course winner (including at this trip) whose best run this term came when fourth to Krissy over C&D on his penultimate start; didn't build on it over 1m here next time, though. |
16/1 |

8th 8 (5) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |

Veteran who ran his best race of the campaign when fourth over 1m1f here last month; should run his race again but might have to make do with some minor money. |
8/1 |

4th 7 (6) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
11yo who has plenty to prove on the evidence of this year's three runs; however, he's 6lb lower than when winning at Redcar last October and perhaps the return to Carlisle will trigger a revival, with his course form figures reading 4106231. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
In good heart this season and he returned to winning ways over C&D (good) last Monday; a 5lb rise takes this 5yo to a career-high mark but he has a solid record here and could be firmly in the shake-up once more. |
3/1 |

1st 6 (9) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Respectable fifth at Beverley three days ago; largely solid record at Ripon features a success in 2024 and peak effort this season (close second in early June); likely player returned to this course. |

5th 1 (5) |

Only 3-34; a well-held third behind Travis and Reginald Charles at Redcar where he was beaten by the track bias; off the same mark he should make his presence felt. |

25/1 |
|
15th 5 (15) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won two fillies' handicaps (7f and 1m) at Newcastle in November but has lost her form in recent AW starts; it remains to be seen whether a return to turf and step up in trip sparks a revival. |

9th 3 (8) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Off the mark when winning at Southwell (1m, AW) in May and followed up over this C&D next time (good); has posted two good placed efforts since, the most recent at Chester (7.5f, soft) last month off a 2lb lower mark than today's, and makes the shortlist. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 5 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced, he landed a quickfire double at Southwell and Thirsk over 1m last month and was beaten 2l when third of 12 at Newcastle (1m, AW) ten days ago; there may be more to come and he should not be far away. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Chased home the bang-in-form Aisling Oscar over C&D in December, and he's 2-2 since returning from a break, winning at Southwell and Thirsk (both 1m); has risen a combined total of 10lb (3lb since latest) for those two wins, but he has to figure on the shortlist in pursuit of the hat-trick. |

Won a Thirsk handicap for Mark Walford in June 2024 (1m, good to firm); lightly raced since, but was a good third at Leicester on stable debut this year (1m, good to firm); lesser run on AW latest; place chance. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

5/1 |

26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |

Has never won above Class 6 and doesn't look as if he's about to put that right; consistent spell has been terminated by his form taking a dip in last few runs. |

Won consecutive AW races in November (9.4f/8.6f) and has been placed several times since, including a close second off today's mark at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) in early May; needs to get back on track after two below-par runs, though. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |

Made an encouraging start in handicaps when third at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last March but she's had only two runs since and has finished out the back in both of them; still lightly raced but has plenty to prove on second run for current yard. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Justified favouritism at Redcar (1m2f; good to firm) before following up at Doncaster (1m, good to soft); carries 5lb extra for latest win (and now rated above this 0-55 grade); Cian Horgan's claim reduces the weight burden; player if able to run to similar level back on AW (0-11). |

11th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Had one run (1m2f, AW) for Jane Chapple-Hyam and sold for 15,000gns in November; that debut was a lot better than his two runs this spring, in demanding company admittedly but he lacks solid claims for handicap debut. |
