30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Formerly useful; hasn't won since 2021 and ended last season with a pair of duck eggs; best watched on reappearance, unless the market suggests otherwise. |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
1-1 over C&D; two good efforts since returning from latest seven-month absence but ran moderately when twelfth of 14 at York last time; 11l margin of defeat does him some disservice though (squeezed out then eased) and this drop in grade can help him bounce back; easiest task on turf for years; interesting. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

Had some long spells on the sidelines since his solid 2022 campaign; two solid efforts since returning from latest seven-month absence; has run well over C&D and should give it a good go from the front. |

One turf win from 15 attempts, in a four-runner race at Chepstow (5f) last July; two fair C&D runs since returned to turf in May and was out on a limb when finishing sixth to Another Abbot and Sudden Flight 14 days ago; however, he'll do well to win at this level off his current mark. |

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

Has made a good start for Ruth Carr and emerged from midfield to edge home over C&D a month ago; on that run and past exploits, he remains on a useful mark up 4lb. |

Two good runs since joining Ruth Carr, fourth of 12 at Newcastle in March and third of 17 at Musselburgh three weeks ago; up in class but should give it another good go. |

Two wins (AW/turf) for previous yard; close fourth at Newcastle (5f, AW) on stable/seasonal debut; fighting chance provided he builds on that effort; similar type to Emerald Harmony. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three poor efforts since returned to turf; now back to the mark off which she won at Yarmouth (sole turf win) last July but she'll need a major revival against some in-form sprinters. |
50/1 |

6th 6 (3) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Prolific winner but never off a mark this high (Bath victory in early summer came off 5lb lower) and she's not still improving at her age; an easy 6f or stiffer 5f is optimal and she'll need to bounce back from a couple of lesser efforts. |
7/1 |
|
8th 3 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Majority of her turf wins have come at Bath and Chepstow, most recently when making all on the former track in June, but she's a C&D winner too (good to firm) and she lost her chance early when back on this course 16 days ago; on a career-high mark but not ruled out. |
10/1 |

7th 7 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
C&D scorer who got back to winning ways when making all in 5.5f handicap at Bath 22 days ago; has a career-high mark to overcome now but can't be ruled out. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 5f win at Wolverhampton and posted a good second at Bath (5.5f) in April; off since a below-par fifth there (5.5f) in May but she has won when fresh. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have come over 5f but he has won three times over 6f, including around here; held lately, but he drops to this level for the first time in over two years and is 4-9 in 0-60 handicaps or lower; interesting. |
7/1 |

11th 11 (7) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (3) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who came close to ending a losing AW run when a fast-closing runner-up here (5f) in March (5f); returns to this C&D for the first time since and ought to go well if the race falls his way. |

Last season was a good one on all sorts of ground; yet to recapture best form this year without being disgraced; on last winning mark. |
10/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Last season he won three turf handicaps (5f); a dual winner on the AW and it wasn't too shoddy a run at York last week after 53 days off; 2lb above last winning mark. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (11) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ended 2024 on the up and he continued the good work last season, winning three turf handicaps (5f); the handicapper has been on top since and this year's two runs leave him with a point to prove. |

Won two Class 5s before a strong-finishing third at this level here last time having been last at one point; however, stall 11 could be a killer. |

3rd 9 (3) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Course win (5f, good) last July; arrives in top form, winning Class 5 events at Bath and Newbury (5f, firm and good to firm) this summer; 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. |
5/1 |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Ran twice over C&D last summer and performed with great credit on both occasions, finishing second to Faustus in July and filling the same position one month later; career-best effort when winning at Bath last week (5f, firm); penalty demands more but he can't be discounted. |

5th 1 (6) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Four 5f turf wins for this yard in 2025 and in good form this summer, doing well to get as close as she did from the widest draw at Chester two starts ago; however, she's 0-5 on the AW and it may be significant that she hasn't run on sand since March 2025. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |

Regressive maiden who's with his third yard; ran poorly back from a break when last seen in June and is having just a second start at beyond 5f, so has questions to answer. |
