11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
All wins over 7f, but he did run well over C&D in June 2023 and was staying on at the finish at Haydock (7f, good) last month; significant rainfall would aid his claims. |

3rd 8 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Down the field on his reappearance at Thirsk three weeks ago but last summer's form brings him right into the reckoning and he could take a step forward today. |

10th 5 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Prominent racer who enjoyed a purple patch last September, winning back-to-back Carlisle handicaps and coming up just shy in his hat-trick bid at Beverley; returns from 170 days off on a tough enough mark and others make more appeal. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a good mark on 2025 best and he has been running himself into form this time around, third of ten (beaten 1l) at Carlisle four weeks ago; conditions no problem and he is one to consider. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Record is only 1-14 but he's attractively treated and proved resurgent with rallying fifth at Thirsk (7f, good) last month on third start for new yard; not ruled out. |
11/2 |
|
5th 12 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Began 2025 in good form, winning a handicap at Catterick and then finishing a good second at Ripon (both 6f, good); modest form in two runs back with Seb Spencer but his return to action at Doncaster three weeks ago certainly didn't get to the bottom of him, travelling well under restraint and then meeting some trouble as the race was unfolding; capable of better, perhaps markedly so, and the betting should be revealing. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
He needs to improve upon his last few showings and was held in fifth over C&D most recently; however, this two-time course winner is 6lb lower than when second at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) in March and is not written off. |
10/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
4lb lower than for his win at Newcastle (7f) last September; up and down in 2026 and others bring stronger claims. |
12/1 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
More productive on AW (5-17) than on turf (2-28) and was only run out of it inside the final furlong at Newcastle (7f Class 5; 9-1) in March; less effective since (0-2) but is slowly easing in the weights, and is perhaps best suited by 6f. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Gained five of his nine wins over C&D, the latest eight days ago (good ground); still on workable mark under 4lb penalty and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
2/1 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Gained four of his eight wins over this C&D; made the frame off today's mark on consecutive starts at Carlisle last month (7f, soft/1m, good) and is sure to be suited by the return to this track; respected. |

Second to an in-form subsequent winner over C&D (good to firm) last month and again ran well when close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) nine days ago; remains on a workable mark; must be considered. |

|
3rd 6 (7) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |

On the go since the turn of the year but largely in good nick and he came second of nine in 7f Ayr handicap three weeks ago; must enter calculations off the same mark. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
A two-time 1m scorer at Newcastle last autumn; yet to hit top form this season though, only seventh of 14 back over 1m there last month; mark is slipping but he still needs to take a step forward. |
10/1 |
|
7th 5 (9) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
He hasn't been at his very best this year and a refusal to settle is becoming an issue; however, he was returning from a break at Doncaster three weeks ago and that run may have got the freshness out of him; impressive when winning two in a row over C&D last autumn and not written off. |
20/1 |

5th 12 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two clearcut wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) last autumn but he wasn't at his best on Tapeta during the winter; has scored over C&D in the past but he's never won a Class 4 and this is competitive on his return; others preferred. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Won twice over 7f last November; comparable form when second at Carlisle (1m, soft) last month; not so good last time and she faces a stiff task at the weights; slower ground ideal too. |
7/1 |
|
9th 3 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Scored over C&D (soft) just under a year ago and has been in good form lately; close second off today's mark here (7.7f, soft) a week ago and also suited by good ground; likely contender again. |
4/1 |

2nd 3 (4) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

2lb lower than when seeing off 15 rivals in a 7f handicap (good ground) at York last summer; neither run this year points to him being the answer today though. |
25/1 |
|
6th 10 (2) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won off this mark in first-time blinkers at York (7f, good) last July and he could improve for last month's respectable comeback at Southwell (7f, AW); however, he does need to build on that and blinkers are left off. |
8/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Scored off 1lb lower in first-time cheekpieces at York (7f, good) last summer and is also suited by Tapeta but we haven't seen him since a low-key run on soft turf in September. |

8st 11lb |
Won a Thirsk maiden (7f, good to soft) in July; hasn't repeated that form but a close third over C&D (first-time eyeshield) last week was her best effort since; not discounted off the same mark under promising Harry Vigors. |
9/2 |

3rd 8 (10) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won twice over 7f as a 2yo for Jim Bolger; sold for 10,000gns last October; seventh of ten on stable debut at Ayr (7f, good) in July and needs to come down the weights before she can come into consideration. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins for Michael Dods were on ground softer than good; picked up for 1,000gns and ran quite well on his stable debut over C&D as he was quite fresh after a break; possibilities if building on that. |
9/2 |

4th 1 (7) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Wins for Michael Dods came on soft (2yo debut) and good to soft, and he hung left both runs on good to firm; 4lb higher than his last winning mark and returns from ten months off, having been picked up for 1,000gns; hard to find many positives. |
12/1 |
|
11th 10 (12) |
9th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Added a first handicap success over C&D (good to soft) in July to go with his debut win here; may have found the ground too lively when below that form at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) since and must be respected back here. |
