17th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Winner at Redcar (2m, good to soft) and Musselburgh (1m6f, soft; by 10l) last term; not disgraced back on Flat at Newcastle (1m4f) in March; cheekpieces get their first airing since October and stepping back up in trip should suit, so he needs a close look. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made light of a six-month absence when landing 12-runner handicap over C&D 19 days ago; up 3lb but he's not taken lightly. |

|
1st 5 (8) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Consistent first year with Ruth Carr included solid second over C&D (good to firm) and a win over 1m5f at Hamilton (good) in July; form tailed off markedly on final two starts of 2025 but no surprise if he resumes in better form following a break. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Consistent first year with Ruth Carr, winning over 1m5f at Hamilton in July and reaching the frame on six other occasions; possible soft didn't suit when below par latest; had course form for previous yard; considered. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Won over 7f here on his seasonal reappearance in 2024 (good) and was fourth over 1m here after a break in May last year, so could go well despite lack of a recent run. |
14/1 |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Two-time course winner, the latest in July (1m2f, good to soft), and she's effective on soft ground; well beaten at Musselburgh on last two starts and has something to prove, but the latest was over 1m6f and perhaps the drop back in trip and return to Ayr will be the catalyst for a revival. |
20/1 |
|
3 (4) |
1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Scored off 2lb lower at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) in July but has mixed record since and was out the back here (1m, good) last time; has something to prove again after that and he's untried beyond 1m2f. |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Went close off 8lb higher in this race (good) last year but he's generally struggled since (Flat and hurdles) and was a remote fourth of five here last time; that took his losing run to 12 and others are preferred. |
15/2 |
|

14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won over 1m6f here last August off 3lb higher but below form since; showed a bit more when third of five over C&D (good) 19 days ago, however, and a further 2lb drop in the weights gives him a fighting chance. |
5/2 |
|
2 (3) |
26th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Now 1lb lower than his win here over 1m6f (good) last August but he's been well beaten in three starts this summer, on this track and at Ayr; bit to prove. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Dual 1m4f winner on Tapeta elsewhere; placed three times from six starts over this sort of trip on Tapeta and could make the frame from just 2lb above his last winning mark. |
12/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No AW win since January 2023 (Newcastle, 12.5f); managed to score at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last July but fortunes dipped markedly towards the end of the turf season; more than enough to prove after layoff. |
16/1 |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (12.4f, good) in July and respectable efforts in next two runs but his form nosedived at Hamilton last month; has something to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back; stablemate of Elemental Eye. |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Longstanding maiden; effective at the track and ran creditably over 1m4f here last week; still looks opposable for win purposes. |

4th 9 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |

Placed several times (including C&D) but this 10yo remains a longstanding maiden and failed to beat a rival on her Newcastle reappearance seven weeks ago. |

10th 8 (8) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win from 19 attempts came off this mark at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last August and he's also effective on turf; however, he's been soundly beaten on his three outings this spring. |
20/1 |

6th 8 (9) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Came good off a similar mark at Newcastle (1m2f) last summer but well held in two outings there this year; his hopes are pinned on a change of headgear (first-time cheekpieces for blinkers) sparking a revival. |
