15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner from the front last October; mostly creditable efforts in defeat this year and should give it a good shot back at a venue which suits, particularly if he can obtain an uncontested lead. |
9/2 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A dual 7f Catterick scorer in October; back in very good form this season, and probably best forgiven his latest 11th in 7f Thirsk handicap when missing the start and unable to lead; the sort to bounce back. |
11/1 |
|
11th 8 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Notched two wins over this trip at Catterick last October and he has returned in fine form, making much of the running when a close third over C&D (good ground) last month; solid claims again from an unchanged mark. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Two-time C&D winner and has also run with distinction in defeat here on numerous occasions; retains plenty of ability despite his advancing years but he would be better suited by slower conditions. |
9/1 |
|
12 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of C&D form in big fields, notably wins on good to soft in July of 2023 and 2025; behind Leadman when fifth at the Dante meeting last month but well in front of David O'Meara's charge and looked a bit unlucky (met trouble) when third of 22 back here three weeks ago; solid. |
6/1 |

3rd 10 (7) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of C&D form in big fields, notably wins on good to soft in 2023 and July 2025; while not so striking as Leadman, he didn't have the best of runs when fifth of 22 over C&D eight days ago, so might step up a bit today. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; Beverley reappearance was promising but he was only midfield in a big field at York three weeks ago; down in class but needs a full revival. |
12/1 |
|
10th 19 (3) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; made a respectable return to action one month ago and enters each-way calculations. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained last year's two wins in August but has recorded his other two successes (2023/2024) in the month of April; drawn against the inner rail and could be a danger, provided he's in top form on seasonal debut; market support would heighten interest. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
7lb below his last winning mark but that was back in October 2024; retains ability and he has been placed in all three C&D runs; should give his running. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner on soft ground, the latest off a 6lb higher mark in October 2024; plenty of sound runs since (placed over C&D on four occasions); each-way chance. |
11/2 |
|
5th 7 (2) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has form at different tracks but may be ideally suited by Catterick and, back away from that venue, his consistent spell ended last time; no win since 2024. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Still seeking his first handicap success and he has been beaten as favourite in both starts this year; on a dangerous mark and likely to be popular again. |
5/1 |
|
6th 1 (1) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Novice winner; 0-8 in handicaps but produced one of his best efforts when 1l second at Hamilton (1m, good) on seasonal debut; possibilities off same mark. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (8) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Novice winner on soft and has gone close in a 7f handicap on good to soft; well beaten upped to 1m at Leicester on final run in October but that was too bad to be true; has dipped to a dangerous mark and, at this trip, may have improvement lurking. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth and fifth in his two big-field C&D races last term; Newcastle win in March ensures a career-high mark today but it's hard to judge him harshly on last week's C&D result as he didn't see daylight at various stages. |
20/1 |
|
16th 17 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Couple of sound performances on Newcastle AW this year, winning over 7f latest; back on career-high mark but he's a five-time turf scorer who has form over C&D and appears to hold solid claims. |
10/1 |
|
1st 11 (5) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Spring has been quite a productive time for him which provides hope that he can build on a promising reappearance third over 6f here 15 days ago; has raced mainly at 7f/1m in recent years so the step back up in trip should help if anything. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Difficult to recommend judged on last five starts, in which he's beaten very few opponents; supporters will cling to the hope that blinkers (replacing a visor) will help and that his two successes have come at Catterick. |
16/1 |
|
2 (6) |
22nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Below par on his last four starts, but Catterick (5f, good) a fortnight ago was a step back in the right direction and he won there (6f, good to soft) in July on his last encounter with slow ground; not ruled out. |
10/1 |
|
10 (7) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

6f win here in July off 1lb higher; not beaten many home in three runs since and a visor is now reached for (has been wearing cheekpieces). |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

7f winner at Redcar last November; two solid efforts (6f/7f, good ground) last month but he will need more if he is to defy this mark. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ended 2025 with a breakthrough win at Redcar (7f, good); similar form when second of ten at Ripon (6f, good) on his return to action 11 days ago; runs off the same mark today and he is one to take seriously back up to 7f. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (8) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Runner-up to an odds-on favourite in a C&D maiden (40-1) last June and mostly competitive since; made the breakthrough in a tight finish at Redcar (7f, Class 5, good; 28-1) last November; 2lb higher for seasonal reappearance, representing an in-form trainer. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a maiden over C&D last summer; back to form with a front-running second of seven in a fillies' handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm; tongue tied first time) nine days ago; on a dangerous mark and one of two solid contenders for David O'Meara. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Thirsk maiden last June (7f, good); good third over this C&D next time (good to firm) but has been very disappointing on her last four starts (two of them this season); customary hood is absent and first-time tongue-tie goes on; has plenty to prove. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
The handicapper has been in command since his runaway win at Leicester (6f, good) in April; today's return to sprinting is in his favour but he's likely to be vulnerable at this level. |
40/1 |

9th 10 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |

Raced exclusively at shorter, gaining most wins over 6f; looks likely to be outstayed and outclassed upped in trip/grade. |
66/1 |
|
8th 4 (3) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Kept trying when third at Doncaster last time (6f) but was beaten over 3l and he's not looked well handicapped since scoring by 6l in April; he's also only 1-16 over 7f. |
