4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
In the first three late last year in his three qualifying runs (1m/1m2f, AW/soft); finished in rear on handicap debut at Ayr last month but that was in a Class 2 event after a lengthy absence; should benefit from that run and he needs checking in market on this big drop back in grade. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
In the first three late last year in his three qualifying runs (1m/1m2f, AW/soft); it's a big ask to win a race this competitive on his first outing of the year but his trainer is very much among the winners and this 3yo's pedigree provides optimism he can be better than his opening mark. |

Record of 4232 in novice/maiden events on turf and again ran well when runner-up on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last October; shaped on that latest outing as though the drop back in trip may be a positive and this unexposed 4yo could have a big part to play on her reappearance. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
210,000gns yearling; record of 4232 in novice/maiden events and she finished a clear second behind a subsequent winner at Ripon (1m, good) in July; out of a 1m2f Listed winner and she's an interesting contender now upped to this trip on handicap debut. |

Haydock second last summer reads well and she was entitled to have needed her AW comeback after ten months off; that was a solid effort considering she was buzzy and this look the ideal opening (taken out of a handicap last month thanks to fast ground). |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 7f nursery in good style 12 months ago; off the mark for the year when well on top at the finish in a 1m2f handicap at Doncaster in July; fair efforts in two of his three runs since (unsuited by ground when disappointing on penultimate start); drop back into a Class 5 will help but stamina for this trip has to be taken on trust. |

3rd 8 (6) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Can pull hard and has worn a hood for last five outings; raised his game, though, with the move up to 1m2f this summer, including for a clearcut win at Doncaster and a creditable fourth over C&D; flopped back at Doncaster last month but that was on tacky ground and he could bounce back on this return to AW. |

14th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |

Hard to settle and has worn a hood for last four outings; raised his game, though, with the move up to 1m2f for last three starts, coming from off the pace, including for a clearcut win here (good; unraced on softer) on penultimate occasion; 6lb higher this time but he's in calculations. |

9st 12lb |
Won three times under Jake Dickson last August/September (1m2f, good to firm-good to soft); no impact in two runs this season but she caught the eye with her late headway at Carlisle (1m3f, good) last Friday; has claims if she can build on that and she won't mind what the weather does. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

She won three times under Jake Dickson last August/September (1m2f, good to firm-good to soft) and may have needed her comeback run at Hamilton (1m3f, good) 12 days ago; however, she was well beaten and a swift and major turnaround is necessary. |

Won off 3lb higher at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) last March but he's not matched that form since and was beaten 6l over C&D and at Redcar (1m2f) last month; hasn't been with Ruth Carr for long but he needs to raise his game back on AW. |

Dual AW winner for the Newland/Insole stable; changed hands for 9,000gns in July and his sixth of eight on stable debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 16 days ago was a little more encouraging than it seems; needs a step forward, though, and soft ground would be a query. |

Hasn't threatened over 1m1f on her last two starts but before those she reappeared with a good second at Catterick (1m4f, good) and is 3lb lower today; has won here and could have a big part to play back up in trip. |

Wins for David O'Meara both came over C&D, including a division of this race two years ago; not beaten far at 100-1 here two months ago but looked flattered in a messy affair and he's generally struggled for this yard. |

Form figures of 5075 at this meeting in the last four years; one win a season had previously appeared his quota but he's already exceeded that in 2026, having scored at Pontefract (1m4f/1m2f) on last two outings; that demands some respect but this race is a higher grade. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |

Four-time Flat winner, including C&D, who has been all or nothing since scoring over hurdles at Cartmel in July; three AW no-shows followed good second over C&D (soft; 40-1) in October but market support predicted a going day when scoring here (1m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago; might not want the ground to get too quick but otherwise a key player under 2lb nudge. |

7-47 on AW but has struggled for form since finishing third at Newcastle (1m, Class 5; from 12lb higher) last November; failed to beat a rival in each of his last two starts (9.4f/1m4f) so it's difficult to have confidence. |
