6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Didn't run badly when midfield at York (7f, good) last month, having been dropped in from stall 20 of 20, and is back on a good mark now; not ruled out, particularly if there's significant rain about. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Encouraging return when sixth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March, but didn't back that up when last back there (6f again) three weeks ago; only 1lb above his winning mark from last autumn but he'll need things to fall right from stall 20. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner; finished well for fourth at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in May but has rather mixed record since returned to turf in April and never really got involved at York last time. |
9/1 |
|
18th 2 (18) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Tends to come from well off the pace and sometimes meets trouble; did well in the circumstances when a never-nearer fourth of 14 at Carlisle two weeks ago; won over C&D last spring; big player if the gaps appear. |

Promising second on reappearance at Newcastle and better than the bare results suggest since, meeting significant trouble in running in a big field at York last time; could play a major role if getting the breaks. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Haydock (7f, good to firm) last May and at Newcastle (5f, AW) in November but he's a more reliable proposition on AW, on which he's 7-19 as opposed to 1-15 on turf; not at the top of his game on grass of late. |
12/1 |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Seven wins in 2025, including a turf success (7f, good to firm) off a 3lb higher mark; this looks more manageable than the 20-runner 0-85 handicap he contested at York eight days ago; not ruled out. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won two 6f events (good/good to soft) for Michael Dods as a 2yo; drew a blank in 2025; makes stable debut in a competitive race after 259 days off; likely best watched. |
28/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Hasn't won for over a year and yet to tackle AW but ran well on first outing over 7f at Musselburgh last time, faring the best of those held up; another to consider. |

3rd 5 (2) |
13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |

Sprinting filly who is 0-7 this season, albeit has slipped to an attractive mark; something to prove over this new trip but the combination of sharp track and forecast sound surface may enable her to see it out. |

4th Jun 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 20y |
9st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap at Naas in May 2024; solid effort when over 1m at Bellewstown in April and backed that up with a close third over 6f at Naas last month; 1-22 record on turf is a concern but those recent efforts have been encouraging |
7/2 |

3rd 9 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap (good) on this card in 2024 and he's just 1lb higher now; solid effort over 1m at Bellewstown latest (soft); should get a strong pace to aim at here and not discounted. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 1 (14) |
11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 205y |
10st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner is 1-19 on turf; is 2lb below that last turf win which came at Naas (5f, good) in May 2024; handles an ease but this trip may just stretch his stamina. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well handicapped on his old form but he's been tailed off in three runs (1m, AW/good to firm) for new yard this year and has a lot to prove |

7th 1 (7) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well below best on final starts for previous trainer and he's beaten a total of one rival in two AW runs (1m) for this one in 2026; has a lot to prove. |

Prevailed narrowly in big field at Ascot (6f, good to firm) on return from break, opening his turf account; rested a further six weeks since, keeping him fresh; one of two last-time winners for his yard in this field; shortlisted. |
5/1 |

1st 12 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Yet to win a handicap and he finished down the field on his seasonal return at Southwell in February; down in the weights but he has more to prove than many of these. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Quirky customer with two C&D wins on his record and now 6lb lower than for last July's success; running himself into form this year but his stable look to hold stronger claims elsewhere. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |

Does plenty wrong during his races but it hasn't stopped him from winning seven times, two of them over C&D; running himself back into form this year but others appeal more. |
12/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
No stranger to the Ayr winners' enclosure, winning five at this track (5f-7f), including this race two years ago; has struggled for form in two 5f spins at Musselburgh this year, which makes him hard to fancy; on the plus side, the handicapper is beginning to give him a chance. |

10st 4lb |
Scored over C&D last July and he signalled he is ready to go in again on the back of breathing surgery when a very good head second of ten in 6f Chester handicap a week ago; merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb. |
5/2 |

2nd 10 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Both wins over 6f (good to soft and good) and he ran well from off the pace here (5.5f, soft) in September; fairly encouraging return when fifth of 12 at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) last month after which he had wind surgery; handy stall but being 5lb 'wrong' tempers enthusiasm. |

Best form on soft ground, his only win coming over C&D in October 2024; makes her seasonal debut and would be interesting if the ground eases. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won nursery here last October (6f, soft) on sole previous course visit and he's run some good races in defeat for his new yard this season, including on good ground and when fourth of 13 at Ayr three weeks ago (6f, soft; showed pace); each-way contender now back down in trip. |

9st 10lb |
Often threatened better as a 3yo and he has made good progress this year, albeit he only has one win (5f, good to soft) to show for it; not beaten far into fifth in a blanket finish at Thirsk 17 days ago (5f, good); now sports a hood for the first time and that could help this free-going sort. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Placed twice off higher marks on Tapeta (6f/5f) at start of this year and may not have been suited by the soft ground when safely held over C&D last month, after a break; others appeal more all the same, though. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time AW winner but not since March 2024, and his turf strike-rate is 0-28; probably worth another crack at 7f but has been out of form over sprint trips for a good while now; considered only if lively in betting. |

Won six times on AW in the first part of 2024 but there hasn't been much to cheer about since; 0-27 on turf but has run well over C&D and the forecast rain won't bother him; still too much to prove for comfort. |
