20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Another who has a better strike-rate on AW than turf; not beaten far into fourth in a 5f handicap at Doncaster 17 days ago, a race where he fluffed the start; yet to shine at Ayr; one of three runners for Jim Goldie. |

4th 7 (3) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Haydock (7f, good to firm) last May and at Newcastle (5f, AW) in November but he's a more reliable proposition on AW, on which he's 7-19 as opposed to 1-15 on turf; not at the top of his game on grass of late. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Seven wins in 2025, including a turf success (7f, good to firm) off a 3lb higher mark; this looks more manageable than the 20-runner 0-85 handicap he contested at York eight days ago; not ruled out. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Six wins, all at 5f, include five on turf, most recently when making a winning reappearance at Nottingham (good) in April; slight concern that his sole run here was his worst but he's won off this mark and looks a player. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Had an inconsistent spell on AW towards the end of 2025; has a better strike-rate on turf and recorded last year's August double off slightly higher marks; possibilities returned to this sphere on reappearance. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has gained all four of his wins at Newcastle, with the most recent of those successes coming there over 5f 16 days ago; 3lb rise looks fair but he was well beaten when last seen over 6f. |
8/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All three of his wins have come at Newcastle and he has run some good races this winter, including his latest third when keeping on after an awkward start (not his first); capable at this level; respected. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Well handicapped on the pick of last year's AW form and he may have needed his comeback run at Thirsk in May; however, this 9yo was well beaten and is without a win on turf since September 2021; others are more compelling. |
40/1 |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran with a mind of his own and refused to leave the parade ring on last intended start in November; however, perfectly capable of a big run off this mark and he's gone well fresh in the past. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three poor efforts since returned to turf; now back to the mark off which she won at Yarmouth (sole turf win) last July but she'll need a major revival against some in-form sprinters. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a Wolverhampton (5f) handicap in February off this mark, but she has beaten just one rival home in three runs since; others much safer. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
12-time winner, latest on AW in March (6f); fair running-on third over 5f here last time (good; Woohoo, who runs in the 2.30, was second); contender back up in trip. |
9/2 |

5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner; returned from a break with a solid fifth in 5f Hamilton handicap last month; this reliable sort is a player off a 2lb lower mark here with Eireann Cagney up. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Acts on good to soft and softer but his best form is at 5f and latest last of six at Haydock needs forgiving; cheekpieces go on after that; nothing wrong with this mark if they do have a positive effect, however. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
21st May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last summer (5f, good/good to firm) and didn't see out 6f when third of six on recent reappearance at Doncaster (6f, good to firm); has run well on slow ground in the past and he's a key player back down to 5f. |
