2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Trip, track and ground should all be suitable but this veteran has a point to prove after a disappointing run at Ayr when last seen 11 weeks ago; close fourth in this race last year when rated 8lb higher. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Began this season with two perfectly respectable 1m6f runs last month (good/soft) and continues to edge down the weights but his last win was in 2023 and he's not the percentage call in this field. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Rallied for third of six at Redcar (1m6f, good) on seasonal debut and remains well handicapped on historical data; just no certainty to step forward, being a veteran who hasn't won since 2023. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; now 6lb below his last winning mark but not easy to recommend after a heavy defeat over C&D one month ago. |

Won twice last year, including over 12.5f here, but his losing run is beginning to mount up; cheekpieces left off last time are back on and he needs to show improvement. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has done her winning on turf, most recently in May; form has dipped sharply in three runs (hurdles/Flat) since, the penultimate over C&D; not the percentage call. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Three-time Flat winner since joining Ben Haslam last summer, most recently at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) in May; 2lb nudge for that looks fair but suffered a heavy defeat over hurdles when last seen in June; market support would boost her claims. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

Only win came over C&D last August when rated 1lb lower; below form both runs this season but should do better having had wind surgery. |

8th 14 (4) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Made fairly encouraging seasonal debut at Catterick (2m, good; behind Arctic Fox) last month but his only win from 18 starts came on Tapeta and others have more pressing claims; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

5th 6 (6) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He lacks a recent outing and was inconsistent last year but reappears on a competitive mark and his trainer won this last year; ran well last May on his sole previous visit to Catterick and could have a part to play. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the Flat here (2m, soft) in November; fourth on hurdle debut here (1m7f, good to soft) later that month and improved when runner-up at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in December; he's high on the list today. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular who landed a fourth win here (his third over this trip) when 28-1 and beating Edwardtheninth one month ago; flopped under a 5lb penalty the following week (Team Endeavour second) but that tactical race may be best ignored; could well bounce back. |
7/1 |

5th 1 (4) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Won his fourth race at this track and third over C&D when scoring at 28-1 last Thursday on his return from a break; 5lb penalty doesn't leave him well in but this is a weak event. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Good few short-priced defeats for two previous yards to go with his sole win, which came off 2lb lower at Newcastle in May (picked up last month for just £2,000); never been the most consistent. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Made it 13th-time lucky at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) 18 days ago, but that race was run at a farcically slow gallop; just 2lb higher, but not hard to have serious reservations. |
6/4 |

1st 4 (4) |
19th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

Maiden who's been turned over as favourite on four of his last six starts, two of them over C&D (behind Angelardo in March), and also behind Lady Phoebe at Pontefract; will be happier back on Tapeta. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
A fair 2m Flat winner for George Boughey; in the frame on all his four runs since sent hurdling, undergoing wind surgery before a solid fourth of eight on his handicap debut over C&D two weeks ago; considered. |
16/1 |
|
4th 5 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Progressive triple winner (1m4f-2m) on the Flat for George Boughey last year; mixed results in three hurdle runs for new yard this spring but he's was only beaten around 6l when third in a Chepstow maiden (2m, good) last time; had wind surgery since and he needs a close look now switched to handicapping after a short break. |
7/2 |

3rd 11 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Progressive on the Flat last year; tailed off on hurdle debut at Stratford last month before 32l third over this C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago, behind two useful sorts; this race should take a lot less winning. |

8st 11lb |
1-24, the win coming by a nose at Wetherby (2m, good to firm) over two years ago; 28-1 when second of five over C&D (Quercus Robur last) three weeks ago but that was a messy event and he'll need a bit more today. |
12/1 |

2nd 5 (6) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Signed off for Ian Williams with two runner-up spots at this trip on AW in 2023; all starts on turf since and was second of seven at Catterick three starts ago; beaten 16l at Ripon (2m, good to firm; Lillistar just denied) last time; not entirely ruled out back on this surface. |

9st 3lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; hasn't been in the same form in two turf outings since returning from a break but is back on his last winning mark and Phil Kirby has tasted recent success in this race. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; he was returning from a three-month break when weakening over 2m at Catterick this month and drops back down in trip today, but he has to prove he's fully effective on turf. |
