4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner who shaped well when runner-up in 6f York handicap in June; refitted with cheekpieces when a below-par ninth at Ayr (6f) following month; goes well on soft ground so this veteran can't be dismissed after a break though. |
8/1 |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Veteran who still retains most of his ability and gave a good account when keeping-on second of 21 at York (6f, good) last month; still only 1lb higher than for C&D (heavy) win in October and will be favoured by any rain. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Without a victory since 2024 and he was retried in a visor when beating one in 6f Hamilton handicap 11 days ago; blinkers and tongue-strap are fitted here. |
25/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on his old form but last win was over two years ago and he's been out of sorts this season; this drop back in trip is no problem but he needs a major revival; visor reapplied. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run stretches back over two years; best effort this year when fifth of eight over 7f at Goodwood (soft) on Sunday, but he'll need more if he's to exploit his reduced mark. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Fairly useful on his day but he's not one to rely on and failed to beat a rival in 6f Hamilton handicap two weeks ago; others are much preferred. |
12/1 |
|
10th 4 (1) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
His wins have come on slow ground but he was beaten only 3l in a big field at York (7f, good to firm) last month; that was a creditable effort after a slow start and he ran well over this trip at Ayr on his penultimate run; could be dangerous. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins this year, the latest a front-running C&D success in June; solid third off this mark at Hamilton 11 days ago; has other pace to contend with this time. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner whose three turf wins have all been on ground slower than good, the most recent coming when holding on at Chester (6f, good to soft) two months ago; may not have things all his own way in front but commands respect off this 2lb higher mark. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
His two turf wins (6f) came on soft and heavy; in good form this year and he made all at Southwell (6f, AW) in April; latest fourth at Carlisle was a fair effort on Tuesday and he's well drawn to attack. |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Record is only 1-13 but gained the win off 3lb higher in sole C&D attempt (for previous yard); interesting back here, assuming she takes to blinkers (replacing the cheekpieces worn last time). |
10/1 |
|
13 (11) |
24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
6f AW winner for William Haggas last summer; ran well for second (short head behind Station X and now 5lb better off) on her stable debut here last November; slow start to this campaign but there was much more to take from her latest Ayr fifth (behind Lord Bertie and Station X); unexposed on testing ground and she's one to consider. |
18/1 |
|
5th 7 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up in two 6f nurseries on heavy/soft ground last autumn; down the field on both outings this year and has something to prove, but those were on good going and maybe today's testing conditions will trigger a revival. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Record of 0-9 this season but she's much better off with Jannas Journey on C&D running four starts ago; successful off higher marks in this race for the last two years; very attractively weighted and warrants respect. |
11/2 |
|
6th 9 (3) |
9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
9 (4) |
30th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 4 |

In reasonable form, having made the frame in last three starts, latest over C&D when one place behind Quest For Fun; 2lb below last winning mark; enters the reckoning. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Hat-trick of wins in 2024 (7f/1m); not scored since, and mainly out of form this year; handles these conditions and really well treated at present, but needs to bounce back. |
7/1 |

11th 4 (2) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Dual C&D winner but his last success was in May 2024 and he's not finished closer than fifth in his seven runs this season; needs to find more back up in trip. |
15/2 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Winless since 7f success here in May 2024 and has yet to find his true form this year (beaten favourite three times; behind Mr Cool here last time) but he ran well on occasions in better 6f races than this in 2025 and won't mind what the weather does; quite well treated now and a revival could be imminent. |

9st 5lb |
All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well handicapped on his old form but he's been tailed off in three runs (1m, AW/good to firm) for new yard this year and has a lot to prove |
20/1 |

All wins at 6f on ground ranging from good to soft to heavy, the last three in 2024; well below best on final starts for previous trainer and he's beaten a total of one rival in two AW runs (1m) for this one in 2026; has a lot to prove. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |

In good form on the AW this year including two wins over 6f; 0-12 on turf, but has gone close on a couple of occasions and should have no problem with this sharp 7f; player. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Fantastic servant who has added another three C&D wins to her haul this year; unplaced here on her last three starts but drops back into a Class 6 today and a 13th course success isn't out of the question. |
11/2 |

5th 10 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

12-time C&D winner including three this summer; no impact in her last three starts, but her last success was off only 1lb lower and she battled well when landing this race last year; not ruled out. |
16/1 |

9th 14 (6) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

Course specialist having won over this C&D 12 times, most recently last month off a 1lb lower mark than today's; below her best when dropped back to 5f here ten days ago but she's the type to bounce back on her return to this trip. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Hasn't fulfilled the promise of his 2023 2yo campaign but he was a close third off this mark at Salisbury four weeks ago (6f, heavy) and will be bang there if repeating that form. |
5/1 |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Won a 2yo novice over C&D in 2023 when with Eve Johnson Houghton; mixed results since and ran very moderately on his return to Britain in a 6f handicap at Ripon. |
12/1 |
|
11th 1 (8) |
4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Runaway win in a 2yo novice at Salisbury (6f, good) for Eve Johnson Houghton in 2023; mixed results in eight runs since but he was a front-running third in a conditions race in Qatar (7f) in May; on dangerous mark now back in Britain and he's not ruled out on this return to sprinting. |
