3rd 1 (10) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple wins include three over C&D earlier in his career; has run well on occasions since a narrow Musselburgh win (7f, good) in April off this mark and a recent never-nearer third of eight there under Jake Dickson puts him in this picture; yard runs three. |
5/1 |

3rd 2 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
C&D win off this mark in April; mixed since but his latest third at Ayr (6f, soft) was a sound effort and today he has the assistance of an apprentice who is good value for his 7lb claim; high on the list. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins this year, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; penultimate Hamilton seventh suggested he was still in good form; no surprise to see him in the thick of it. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days but it was a fairly close third at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; now 4lb lower after four lesser runs; handicapping case can be made but percentage call is to oppose. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Not won on turf since his 2yo days and has gone off the boil, finishing a remote last behind Physique at Beverley a few weeks ago; hard to recommend off the back of that. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner for Roger Varian (7f/1m; AW/good to firm); has slipped to a good mark and he halted the slide in his fortunes with a third at Yarmouth; considered despite an awkward draw. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Dual winner for Roger Varian (7f/1m; AW/good to firm) and he's now 13lb lower than for the second win; ran his best race since joining this stable when sixth of 18 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft; first-time visor) 18 days ago and has claims if building on that; headgear removed. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Triple AW winner but he's 1-13 on turf and was beaten 10l behind Glory Hyde over C&D two weeks ago; has something to prove and all of his wins have been over 7f. |
7/1 |
|
6th 1 (5) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
4-29; runner-up off this mark at Wolverhampton (7f; beaten a neck) in February; in rear throughout at York (6f; 40-1) on return from a three-month break; this is slightly easier (Class 5) and Ethan Tindall takes off a handy 5lb. |
7/1 |
|
15th 16 (22) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Landed a 7f turf win at Doncaster (good to firm) last summer and close second at Wolverhampton (7f) on latest start in February; back from a 12-week break with his stable among the winners but he's done all his winning at 7f. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Effective on AW and turf; respectable third in big field at Doncaster (6f) returned to this sphere last time; remains on a workable mark and gained last two wins over 5f. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 18 (3) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Usually slowly away but his refusal to race at Newcastle in January was a first; won't mind getting back on the grass and he is proven in big-field handicaps; could go well at a price. |
33/1 |
|
7th 2 (1) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Usually slowly away but his refusal to race here last month was a first; ran okay over 7f here last week and capable of a big run but he is a risky proposition. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Seven wins include three on turf and it was a first success at 7f when scoring at Newcastle (AW; stays 1m) in December; took a good step forward from his return to turf when a keeping-on fourth at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; respected. |
6/1 |
|
4th 11 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time 6f/7f scorer in 2025; kept busy and in good form (on the AW) this term until only 16th in 7f York handicap eight days ago; he's the type to bounce back though. |
16/1 |
|
16th 18 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has raced almost exclusively on Newcastle's AW since joining Phil Kirby last autumn, winning three times (6f/7f) and placed on six other occasions, including last four starts; three 6f turf wins earlier in career (including here on good to firm) provide hope that he can continue the good work now back on the grass. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 but he's on a reduced mark and showed signs of a revival when fourth at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) last month; has possibilities if he can build on that and he's effective at this trip. |
12/1 |

4th 10 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 (Newcastle); weakened quickly on turf return at Doncaster (7f) three weeks ago; the only real glimpse of life this year was when a never-nearer fourth at Southwell (5f; 25-1) in February; stablemate of East Tyrone. |
33/1 |
|
8th 1 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner but he's generally struggled this year and was beaten 10l at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month; continues to drop down the weights but he has plenty to prove and is 0-11 on turf. |

9st 10lb |
Won twice over 7f this time last year for Mick Appleby and is 8lb lower than when successful at Ascot on the second occasion, but six starts for this yard so far this year leave plenty to be desired; others safer. |
