9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Trained in Shropshire but has raced mainly in Scotland; followed two wins at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) over the winter with creditable third of 15 at Ayr (2m, soft) three weeks ago; more needed off unchanged mark. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Lightly raced 7yo who is 2-2 since sent into handicaps, both wins over 1m7f on good to soft ground at Musselburgh; an 8lb rise seems harsh enough for last time, for all that he won readily, and this a lot deeper; still respected with him on an upward curve. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Consistent over hurdles for current yard; successful in last two Flat turf attempts, latest at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last month returned to this code; 1-1 over 1m6f and warrants respect. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over 1m6f at Salisbury (good to soft) for Daisy Hitchins last summer; has been running creditably in defeat over hurdles since joining Tristan Davidson, including placed twice here; leading claims back on the Flat in a race where her rivals have something to prove. |
6/4 |

3rd 6 |
11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Ready Kempton winner (2m novices' handicap, good) for Daisy Hitchins last October; consistent for Tristan Davidson (366233), giving her best when a close third in the Sea Pigeon Series Final at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) recently; 2lb higher but bang there with repeat. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Front-runner who won at Ayr (2m, heavy) in January before solid third at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft), and he won again at Ayr (2m, soft) last month; further improvement is necessary today, but possible. |
6/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
In-form contender who registered an account-opening success over C&D (heavy) on penultimate start and ran creditably at Musselburgh (good to soft) latest, both in Class 4 events; solid claims returned to Ayr and dropped back in grade. |
5/2 |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |

Showed a good attitude to get off the mark at Ayr (2m, heavy) 18 days ago, making the running and rallying; up 5lb but may have more in the tank and has to be respected. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Progressive 6yo with 3-4 strike-rate over fences, including two fast-ground C&D wins this season; the form of last month's 20l success in a three-runner race is tricky to evaluate (odds-on favourite below par) but a 4lb rise could have been worse and he may still be on the upgrade. |
15/8 |

1st 2 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Won first two starts over fences (2m1f, good) and shaped just as well when reverting to hurdles off 13lb lower, finishing runner-up at Southwell this month; latest second, over fences at Perth 23 days ago, was perfectly respectable but his current mark looks demanding. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Launched chasing career with wins at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) and Plumpton (2m1f, good) last month, and also ran well when second over hurdles on Tuesday; evidently in very good nick but current chase mark asks a question of him, and today's forecast slower ground is probably not ideal. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won over C&D (Class 5, good; same mark) last July; has mixed hurdling with Flat racing this year and wasn't beaten far when third over C&D (good; 7-1, Just Dottie fifth) 25 days ago; highly likely to give his running, even though he isn't a frequent winner. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Good fourth at Musselburgh in March but tailed off in his last run over hurdles and down the field on the Flat last week; others look more likely. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

Tailed off over hurdles last time but ran well in that code in March; he's on a handy mark on last year's best Flat form; not ruled out. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Three wins from four Flat starts in 2026 include a C&D success last week (had Sophiesticate two necks back in third); likely has more to offer at this kind of trip and could easily shrug off a 4lb penalty; yard took this last year. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Pulled up over hurdles in May but right back on song to notch a second success of 2026 in 1m2f Newcastle classified event 20 days ago; this return to handicap company demands more though. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |

Only won a maiden over hurdles but was placed in two handicaps and gets in off a lower mark for this debut over fences (second in his only point); worth considering. |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Both wins have come here and she made all in maiden over C&D (good to soft) in November; possibly failed to stay 2m4f on handicap debut last time; needs to bounce back but it's possible. |
7/1 |

2nd 2 |
21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Irish point winner who was far too good for Centurion's Sister when winning Musselburgh bumper (good to soft) on rules debut in March; rather disappointing when well-held third at Kelso (good) the following month but was given a wind op during the summer and remains a good hurdling prospect; tongue-tie added. |
5/1 |

3rd 2 |
22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Joined Lucinda Russell after clearcut win on Irish point debut (soft ground) in January and maintained unbeaten record with fairly comfortable success in mares' race at Musselburgh (good to soft) last month; carries a penalty and takes on males here but still commands respect. |
