9th 3 (16) |
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. |
13/2 |

2nd 5 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Veteran who retains plenty of ability; fourth in big field at Doncaster on return and fared best of those drawn high when seventh over C&D next time; back to his last winning mark and impossible to discount. |

7th 22 (18) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
10yo who may prefer slow ground but the going was good when he was fourth of 21 in this in 2024; often runs well here and he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March; each-way possible. |

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. |

|
5th 5 (7) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Losing run stretches back over two years and neither start this year suggests he is ready to exploit his lowly mark; the prospect of slow ground does pique interest though. |
14/1 |

9th 6 (1) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Six-time winner, notably the 2023 Ayr Silver Cup, but two years have passed since the last victory; retained ability in a mixed 2025 campaign and he should be sharper with a run under his belt; drying ground won't be in his favour here though. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Didn't run badly when midfield at York (7f, good) last month, having been dropped in from stall 20 of 20, and is back on a good mark now; not ruled out, particularly if there's significant rain about. |
20/1 |

11th 4 (20) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Encouraging return when sixth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March, but didn't back that up when last back there (6f again) three weeks ago; only 1lb above his winning mark from last autumn but he'll need things to fall right from stall 20. |

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. |
7/2 |
|
4th 1 (12) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
All his wins have been at 6f, the latest at Southwell in April, but effective at 5f; goes particularly well on soft/heavy ground so today's conditions should be ideal; fair run last time at Hamilton (1.25l sixth of 13); could go well from his high draw. |

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. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Gained all four wins over 7f+ and is yet to hit top gear this season but attracted stewards' attention when keeping on for sixth under tender handling over C&D (soft) last month and remains well handicapped; one to keep a close eye on in the betting. |
14/1 |
|
6th 12 (11) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Four-time winner, all over 7f-1m, but none since May 2024; has run well over C&D in the past and rain won't bother him; beaten favourite in Class 5 events on his last two starts and this is tougher. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (3) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His losing sequence goes back 16 races to May 2024 and his form has gone the wrong way; however, he's dropped to a dangerous mark and ran respectably when fifth of nine over 7f at Ayr a fortnight ago (11-8 favourite), when shaping as though the return to 6f may help; not ruled out. |

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 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
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 |
9st 9lb |
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. |
4/1 |
|
5th 7 (2) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Hold-up performer who was successful over 6f at Wolverhampton and Southwell last month; proved himself at 7f when his strong finish only just failed to reel in the thriving Goldmoyne (won three times since) back at Southwell last time; it's likely he's still on a good mark. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Competitive coming from off the pace over 6f on all five starts this year, winning in clearcut style at Wolverhampton and Southwell on last two occasions; he's now getting close to his career-best form, with more to prove on this third attempt (first on AW) at 7f but he's been finishing well. |

Bagged a remarkable 11th C&D success in June; only sixth of eight in 7f Musselburgh handicap 11 days ago but no surprise to see her bounce back here. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Has run well over C&D in the past but Hamilton is her spiritual home and she has added another two wins at that venue this summer, the latest a comfortable front-running success (6f, good to firm) in Class 6 company five days ago; 5lb higher over an extra furlong on a different track and in a higher grade so this may not be her day. |
5/1 |

Battled well for narrow C&D (good to soft) win a fortnight ago and lost out only by a neck over C&D (good) last week; back in action before latest 1lb nudge takes effect; likely contender again. |

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. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

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. |
