13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Gained two of his ten wins over this C&D and returns here after bouncing back to form with commendable second in last week's Epsom Dash (5f, good to soft); still well handicapped after 3lb rise; likely contender. |
11/4 |

2nd 19 (18) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Prolific winner down the years and he arrives off an 11lb lower mark than when fifth in this 12 months ago; yet to shine this year (poor draw at Chester on penultimate start) but it wouldn't be a huge shock to see him fare better today. |
16/1 |

11th 11 (11) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Prolific winner over the years, including over C&D; no impact yet this season but he wasn't disgraced from a wide draw at Chester last time and he's tumbling in the weights; solid each-way claims. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Below par in three AW outings this year but is well treated on last year's turf exploits if first-time blinkers spark him back to life. |
9/1 |
|
11th 8 (11) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Below par in two AW outings this year but might have been building up his fitness and this former course scorer is starting to look well treated on the pick of last year's turf form; no shock were he to bounce back to form. |
12/1 |
|
7th 9 (9) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Got the better of Pilgrim at Ripon (5f, good) last April off a mark 2lb higher than today's, and he ended the season with some solid placed efforts; faded at Newcastle (5f, AW) last month on his first start for 111 days but he may well have needed it. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Faded in the closing stages over 6f at Newmarket last time but 5f is more her trip and her latest attempt over the minimum distance resulted in a creditable third at Lingfield (AW) at the beginning of September; has dropped to only 1lb above the mark she defied on turf at Lingfield in August. |
16/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Has placed form over the trip but she's 0-9 over 6f+ as opposed to 3-16 at 5f; didn't run badly on AW three weeks ago but perhaps vulnerable to stronger stayers this time. |
12/1 |
|
1 (8) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Turf win here last month (5f, good); not so good at York a fortnight ago but that was a warm race; promise in each of her three AW starts thus far; not ideally drawn though and others perhaps stronger for win purposes. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won off an 11lb mark at Musselburgh last August (5f, good); hasn't run as well since and below-par over same C&D last time (good); dropped another 3lb so no surprise if he were to go well. |
7/1 |
|
7th 4 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained last season's win over C&D (good); slightly disappointing in first-time blinkers (retained) on AW a week ago but now 2lb lower than when fourth of 17 behind Right And Exact at Thirsk (5f, good) two starts ago. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 |
29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Useful 5f turf form in 2025 but his season slowed down later in the year and he's been below best, despite the reduced mark, this term; 0-3 on Newcastle AW but he did handle that Tapeta earlier in his career, so perhaps the switch to this track might pay off in first-time headgear. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Picked off late in the 3yo Dash 12 months ago; gelded prior to his seasonal return and he has run well on both starts in 2026, following his close third at Musselburgh with an impressive win at Goodwood five weeks ago (5f, good); a 9lb rise asks a stiffer question but he is progressive. |
6/1 |
|
1st 10 (2) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Gained a deserved success at Catterick (5f) in October and resumed from five months off with a good third of 14 in 5f Musselburgh handicap 27 days ago; a likely player off an unchanged mark. |

Absent since running respectably when favourite for AW contest in January; on a two-year losing spell but is attractively treated off his lower mark back on turf; further market support should be noted. |
9/1 |
|
7 (8) |
31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
On a losing run and he has yet to win over this trip; sent off favourite for the corresponding race 12 months ago but faded into tenth; 6lb lower this time around and he has finished second in two of his last four starts; vulnerable to stronger stayers. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Has mostly duck eggs in his form figures this term but won at Ripon (6f) in April and the return to this venue, combined with first-time visor, may have positive effect; scored over 5f last year. |
7/1 |
|
13th 11 (10) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner; has done well since joining Mark Walford, first home on his side in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon (6f, good to firm) last summer and winning over the same C&D (good to soft) in April; has to bounce back from poor run at Ascot last time but that's certainly possible. |
14/1 |
|
10th 11 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Had a good season for new yard in 2025, winning on second start and running two excellent races at Ripon when returned to 6f, notably when first home on his side in the Great St Wilfrid (good to firm) in August; confirmed his liking for that course when winning there three weeks ago and needs to prove he's the same horse elsewhere. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ideally suited by going around a left-hand bend, with his six wins coming here and at Wolverhampton; 10lb higher than for his win in this race last year and the widest draw isn't a big selling point today; cheekpieces join the hood today. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
6yo who posted career-best performance when dominating from the front over C&D (good) last month; used up energy to get across to lead from a wide draw when fifth of ten over 5f here a fortnight ago and can be treated as if still in good form. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
6yo who posted career-best performance when dominating from the front over 6f here (good) last month; 5f on ground slower than good also suits but he's not ideally drawn and recent 4lb rise demands even more from him. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |

Is enjoying an excellent season and gained a third success when making all in 5f Beverley handicap two weeks ago; up 3lb but not taken lightly in his hat-trick bid. |
5/2 |

1st 1 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Began his campaign with a second and first over C&D in April; his progress has continued, adding a win at Redcar (5f, good) 13 days ago; well drawn for a prominent racer and should go well despite his career-high mark. |
5/2 |

1st 8 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

9st 8lb |
Won over 6f on this track as 2yo; winless since that season but he's shown enough to think he can be placed to advantage off a reduced mark; had a troubled start to the season at Beverley but it's too soon to write him off; hood refitted with cheekpieces added. |
10/1 |

7th 6 (8) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Not a prolific winner; rather disappointing for this yard in a light campaign last season, best run when third at Haydock in September (5f, good; hood on for first time); no hood this time; on a good mark and could go well. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW but he has won on fast turf; good fourth at Ripon in April but he could only manage a midfield finish at Thirsk in May; 2lb lower than when short-headed by Brazen Bolt in this race 12 months ago but he arrived in top form then. |
14/1 |
|
11th 3 (18) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
25-1 winner of a division of this race 12 months ago; arrives in form following a success at Southwell and a creditable fourth of eight at Ripon; should be in the thick of things again. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Placed three times on AW over the winter before resuming winning ways over 5f at Southwell 18 days ago; hasn't been successful above a mark of 76 so a career best will be needed if he's to follow up. |
13/2 |
