1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
17-134; had the run of the race when battling on gamely to edge out Polygram and His Finest Hour over C&D (good; 2-1) last month; disappointing at Doncaster (1m2f) and Redcar (1m) since; needs to bounce back. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable veteran who recently completed a hat-trick over 1m2f before disappointing last week at Doncaster; has to bounce back from that, but he should be fine returned to 1m. |

Veteran who is enjoying a fine season and bagged win number five when completing a hat-trick in 1m2f handicap at Ripon 12 days ago; this likeable front runner merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb. |

9st 10lb |
C&D win (soft) in June off a 2lb lower mark; solid efforts in defeat since and the forecast rain won't be a problem; still needs the new headgear to squeeze out a bit more. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Triple turf winner who scored at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and has finished a respectable third at Pontefract in her last two starts; still unexposed on AW and she should be in the mix again back in this sphere. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |

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. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to make any further progress since winning 1m Ripon maiden a year ago and has been safely held on all three starts this season; might be aided by new tongue-tie and/or cheekpieces, though. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

A fair 1m winner in 2025; yet to beat a rival in a pair of 1m/1m1f handicaps at Ayr this season though so has plenty to prove. |

8th 4 (4) |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Usually a front-runner; doesn't have the best of strike-rates (2-22) but three good runs in blinkers at Ayr (1m; all on good to firm; has form on good to soft) in June and he stays this trip; a possible. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent racer; galvanised by first-time blinkers when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last month and although he has been expensive to follow since, he has still performed with great credit; the headgear was left off at Ayr last week but returns today; big run expected. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 2 (10) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Handles all surfaces; many good runs on turf over the last year, making all in first-time blinkers here (1m, good to firm) in July and two solid efforts since; headgear left off now tackling 7f for the first time since 2yo days in Ireland but has another good run in him. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Course regular who has registered four wins and five places from 21 starts here, including when scoring over 8.5f in April; has proved his stamina for 1m2f since July and has soft ground form too; may well make an impact. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Off the mark for the year at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in April and he has run several good races in defeat since; he should be in the thick of the action once more. |
9/2 |

5th 6 (1) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |

Four wins here and nearly made that five last month on two occasions, since when he's again gone close at Pontefract; likely contender off the same mark as for last two runs. |

Won three times over 1m here last summer and 5lb lower than for the most recent; hasn't threatened in her last five starts, though, and another furlong would be preferable. |

6th 13 (6) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Won three times for two different stables at Brighton last year (1m, good to firm-good) but was soundly beaten on first three starts for current stable this spring (all 7f); considered only if lively in the betting. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Combination of a first-time visor and drop to 0-50 classified company enough to see her end a losing run a fortnight ago; win last August came off a stone-higher mark and she's shortlisted now back in the groove. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (10) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner; on the downgrade now but fairly consistent in handicaps in recent months; went without her usual cheekpieces on last two outings; big player in this grade if first-time visor has any positive effect. |
11/4 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner over the extended 1m here; losing run up to 13, but 16lb below her last winning mark and looked unlucky not to finish closer when fourth of six here (1m, good) three weeks ago; stays this far and could go well. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

4th 9 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 4 |
