30th Aug 2026 Soft 2m 0f 32y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
A clearcut winner at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time blinkers) and nearly followed up at Ayr, over 1m5f on good; stays this far and handles slow ground, so has to be considered. |
7/2 |

2nd 1 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and change of headgear when clearcut winner at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW; first-time blinkers) nine days ago; 6lb higher here and too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but the return to turf won't be a problem. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
0-5 on AW and he was never a threat over C&D in March; remote third over 2m at Musselburgh (good) three weeks ago and he now drops back in trip with added blinkers. |

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. |
2/1 |
|
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. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Last two wins have been at Ayr, the most recent coming over 1m2f last summer, but she's been well held there on her last two starts; others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
9th 9 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner, the most recent over this trip (Class 6, good to soft) over a year ago; no obvious excuses (form figures 9549) in 2026, but does have a capable 5lb claimer aboard, and further rain could assist; stablemate of Golden Valour. |

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. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Poor strike-rate but there have been several good runs in defeat this year and his record at Hamilton reads -30222; has run well on soft but a slightly quicker surface may be ideal. |
11/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Sole win from 27 starts came on the AW at Newcastle last August but he's been runner-up on turf six times, including when caught late at Hamilton (1m4f, good) two weeks ago; switch of headgear today; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 8 (9) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent gelding who went close over C&D in early June and came back to that sort of level when behind Patrick Street three days ago (8lb better off back into a handicap); often pulls hard and it will depend on his mood. |
