19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time Polytrack winner who ran well below market expectations in two previous starts on Tapeta; back on his last successful mark but didn't build on a decent comeback effort last time. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Resumed from four months off with a good third of 15 in 7f Doncaster handicap 15 days ago; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |

3rd 12 (11) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Doesn't have time on his side, being the oldest contender in this field; however, looks interesting back at Doncaster, being 1-1 here (win off 1lb lower last July); Harry Vigors takes off a useful 7lb. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Useful 2yo form, including a 7f novice win on AW; three heavy defeats in handicaps this year have seen him drop down the handicap and he now tackles his first Class 5 handicap; a revival may be foretold by the betting. |
12/1 |

6th 6 (11) |
1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Landed the odds in a Wolverhampton novice (7f, AW) last September but he's struggled in three subsequent runs, including two handicaps; record is now 1-7 and has plenty to prove back in trip. |
25/1 |

10th 5 (7) |
6th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Came good with 7f Tapeta novice win in September, his fourth start; well down the field when dropped back to 6f on that surface for seasonal/handicap debut in April, though, and arrives here with a point to prove. |

String of consistent efforts on Tapeta since sporting headgear, culminating in last weekend's Wolverhampton win off 5lb lower; not a lot of luck round Newcastle prior to that and it would come as no surprise to see him follow up. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Notched two wins over this trip at Catterick last October and he has returned in fine form, making much of the running when a close third over C&D (good ground) last month; solid claims again from an unchanged mark. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won a pair of 7f handicaps at Catterick last October; returned from a 142-day absence with a fine third at Newcastle three weeks ago, doing best of the smaller stands' side group; runs off the same mark today and should make another bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ended a long losing run with back-to-back wins from the front over 7f at Catterick last October; found out in a higher grade at Musselburgh on final start; fifth is the best he's managed in four AW starts (all here) and it's likely best to look elsewhere on reappearance. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Low-mileage son of Golden Horn who got off the mark at Thirsk (7f) in September; resumed from seven months off with a good third of 13 in another 7f handicap there 27 days ago; could do better still back up in trip with a hood fitted and rates a player. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 13 (6) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Lost his action and weakened at Catterick when last seen 199 days ago; prior to that he had comfortably seen off nine rivals in a C&D handicap (soft) in September; only had seven starts and there should be more to come. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned only over 7f-1m; justified favouritism at Newcastle (AW) on seasonal debut, registering a first win since joining current yard; back up 5lb but remains well treated on peak form and he's 2-3 at Pontefract; should remain competitive, provided he stays the new trip. |
5/1 |

1st 1 (10) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

Has form at different tracks but may be ideally suited by Catterick and, back away from that venue, his consistent spell ended last time; no win since 2024. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (5) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has added to his strong record over 7f at Catterick with a pair of runner-up efforts on good last month; successful on his fast-ground C&D debut, which was his only previous visit to Redcar; should go well again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His C&D record of 112153422 shows his affinity for the track and he made a pleasing return to action when second to the reopposing Evocative Spark here two weeks ago (pair clear); should make his presence felt again off an unchanged mark. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two of last summer's three wins came over C&D (good/good to firm) and she returned to form when third at Ayr (7f, good to firm) last Tuesday on her second start of the season; she's on the shortlist. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three 7f handicaps (including here); 5lb lower than for the last of them and last month's return to action should have sharpened her up. |
4/1 |
|
8th 13 (14) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
She lost her form last autumn but won four times during a busy 2025, two of them over C&D (good/good to firm), and a break may have helped; she's 3lb below her last winning mark and could have a big say. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Four C&D wins (mostly on soft), the latest when seeing off Chief Of State last October; has twice finished behind Evocative Spark over 7f here this year, so has work to do with that reopposing rival; latest effort - runner-up - was a definite step back in the right direction. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 8 (12) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
His last four wins have come over 6f here (good and soft), the latest last October; reappeared with 5l third of 12 over C&D last month but only seventh of nine over C&D (also good) since; 6f seems his optimum trip. |
25/1 |
|
7th 7 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
All four of his turf wins have come at Catterick but over 6f; creditable effort back from a break when third (5l behind Evocative Spark) two weeks ago; can build on that but perhaps vulnerable to stronger stayers. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Disappointing (0-13) since joining Lizzie Quinlan, last of 12 at Catterick (7f, soft; 50-1) over a fortnight ago; hopes pinned squarely on these newly applied cheekpieces and an AW return (0-7) providing the spark; risky even from this plummeting mark. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

0-12 (Flat and hurdles) for current stable; edging down the weights but she doesn't look in the sort of form required to capitalise, especially from the widest stall. |
33/1 |

9 (6) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

8st 9lb |
4-15 at Beverley, with the wins all in Class 6; the most recent win was last month (8.4f) but he's taken two backward steps since and most form in the last two years suggests a supporting role. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |

Successful four times at Beverley, all in Class 6, most recently on penultimate start; placed in Class 5 at Thirsk latest; could go well but this isn't his ideal grade. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 6 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four of his five wins have come at Beverley, the latest nine days ago (8.5f, good to firm); 4lb higher in a stronger race but as the only last-time-out winner in the field he has to come right into the reckoning. |

9st 6lb |
Arrives in great form, having won three of his four turf starts this season, two of those here over 7f and the latest over C&D; up another 4lb but looked like he had a bit more up his sleeve last time; big player. |
9/4 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Thrives here - form figures 72111 - twice accounting for Vince Le Prince over 7f last month; weakened at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago, but this track is a much better fit, and he's unlikely to be hindered by rain; still fairly treated off 67 based on historic form. |
7/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran who has been back in fine form of late, landing a pair of 7f handicaps at Catterick; up another 3lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood. |
