14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Dropped in the weights and much more competitive in recent starts, second at Chelmsford and Southwell before finishing third behind Sturlasson back at Southwell two weeks ago; better off at the weights with that rival today but might not reverse the placings. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Her losing run goes back more than a year but she's been running well of late and confirmed her liking for this C&D when losing out narrowly to a well-treated rival (pair well clear) last week; solid claims. |
11/4 |

1 (6) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Dropped a long way in the weights this year and she returned to form with a good second at Chelmsford last month (ran without the declared tongue-tie); back up 2lb but still well treated on last season's best; C&D winner; considered. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Made all over C&D (good) in August but had to give best to Thistle Nil and Harb when going unpenalised here (good to soft) next time; sound effort off new mark at Doncaster recently and fitting a tongue-tie might be helpful but soft or slower ground raises a new question. |
100/30 |

2nd 10 (6) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Easily made all at Hamilton (5f, good) last month and she's continued in good form, fourth of 21 at York (5.4f, good to soft) last Sunday; this drop back to a bare 5f seems a likely positive and she's on the shortlist. |
13/2 |

Ready win at Hamilton last month but turned over as favourite back there ten days later; those were Class 6 events though and this will demand more. |

Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |
16/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |

Hit and miss this year and although he ran a fair race at Ayr (5f, good to soft) 18 days ago, he doesn't look the answer this time. |
14/1 |

10th 3 (21) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Gained last two wins on Newcastle AW; has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark since returned to turf but isn't out of form; respectable fifth at Hamilton most recently; could go well. |
14/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW (4-26) than on turf (3-39); 4lb below his last winning mark, but has to put a modest effort at Ayr (5f, good to firm) last month behind him. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Losing run stands at 14; twice a runner-up at Kempton over the winter (6f) but he hasn't beaten many rivals in five starts since April; return to 5f, drop in class and latest change of headgear not enough to tempt. |
25/1 |

10 (1) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark in 6f novice at Salisbury as 2yo but he's had some seriously poor results either side of wind surgery, failing to beat a rival on last four starts; visor replaces cheekpieces; hard to see the light. |
20/1 |
|
10 (5) |
12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won 6f turf novice as 2yo; finished placed in three of first four AW starts for this yard but he's been through difficult times since the spring, including when back from wind surgery latest; now in cheekpieces; risky. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |

Better on AW than turf but handicapped accordingly; not beaten far at Wetherby on his penultimate start but this is a better race and he has since finished down the field at Wolverhampton. |
16/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has won here but at his best at Newcastle where he has gained his last four wins; can ruin chance by starting slowly but is not firing on all cylinders at present anyway; best to wait until he returns to Newcastle. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better on the AW, but has a 15lb lower rating on turf; Newcastle winner in March; not disgraced on latest turf start at Beverley last month, but modest effort in a visor (on again) on Tapeta last time; a possible. |

9st 5lb |
Runner-up three times this winter (including twice over C&D), but he was disappointing after another slow start at Chelmsford last month; needs to bounce back and he's now 0-13 since his sole win last June. |
7/1 |
|
5 (9) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made all at Yarmouth (5f, good) in June on handicap debut, his only win from 11 races; wore headgear for last six outings and the last three were major backward steps, so others have more pressing claims. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Should be on a very good mark and was a close fourth at Newcastle last week (5f) after a prominent position throughout; that was his best run for a while. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Course winner (6f); most recent wins have come around the bend at Wolverhampton; prominent in the betting but left the impression the run would bring him on when seventh of 12 at Southwell last week (after three months off); due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but still looks on a good mark. |
7/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has a course win (6f) on his record but better known for his exploits at Wolverhampton more recently; odds-on to hang to his right but he returns from a break on a dangerous mark; market to guide. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Reeled off a hat-trick last September, with second leg over C&D (good); got back near best when scoring at Leicester (5f, good to firm) in the spring but he's been disappointing since and has been a long way below form in last two runs; down the list. |
16/1 |
|
9 (10) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Reeled off a quick hat-trick last September, including over C&D; better than ever when winning at Leicester in April (5f, good to firm); not so good since but he is now 1lb lower than for the Leicester win. |
14/1 |
|
3 (4) |
28th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Well held in last two starts but he ran into two well-handicapped rivals when third at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last month; now only 1lb higher than for his front-running win at Leicester in April and has claims if he can get back near that level. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won just two of his 36 starts and the second of them was way back in May 2024; he has run some solid races this season, including C&D, but he is prone to fluffing the start and that won't make life easy from stall 3. |
10/1 |

13th 15 (20) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

On a long losing sequence but is in form, having made the frame in four of his last six races, and remains attractively treated on historical data; return to winning ways is not out of the question. |

3rd 5 (3) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
In very good form on the AW through the winter (scored twice at Newcastle) but he's yet to show any worthwhile form on turf and came in last of ten in 5f Carlisle handicap last time; others appeal much more. |
16/1 |
|
10th 9 (2) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Has something to prove back on turf but is a leading player provided AW form is transferred back to this sphere; runner-up off 10lb higher at Southwell (5f) most recently. |

7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Hard to predict and was out the back over C&D last time but he scored at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in June and was successful off 1lb higher in this race last year; comes with risks attached but has claims if he can bounce back again. |

12th 15 (3) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |

Back to winning ways at Doncaster (6f) in June and comes here on the back of a resurgent fifth of 11 over C&D 24 days ago; scored twice here in 2025 (including over C&D) so ought to be thereabouts. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |

Losing turf run goes back to summer 2024 but he was unlucky not to put that right at Redcar (6f, good) in August and he's finished in the frame more often than not on this course; on the premises. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Needs things to fall just right for him but he is on a lowly mark and some of this summer's form gives him leading claims; wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Leicester run and he holds each-way claims again. |
