17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four wins have been on AW, including one over C&D; no obvious excuses for latest 8l defeat at Southwell (1m, AW) though. |

8th 1 (8) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
All four wins have been on AW and last two were over C&D in the spring; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for her last success and she's run well on turf in last two starts including a near-miss at Wetherby (7f, good to firm); usually comes from off the pace and she's strongly respected back up in trip. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has recorded the majority of his wins on Newcastle AW; below par over C&D ten days ago, failing to build on his Hamilton effort; still hasn't scored on turf since 2022. |
16/1 |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Handy sort who is 1-1 here and ran well returned to turf when beaten a short head and a neck into third of eight at Hamilton (1m, good) a fortnight ago; ground faster than good probably not ideal, though. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since August 2024 but he comes here on the back of a good second of 12 over C&D in July; this C&D scorer must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 6 (12) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Getting on for two years since his last win but this C&D winner has dropped to a tempting mark and he didn't run badly in a stronger race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) six weeks ago; apprentice takes off a handy 5lb too; high on the list. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
15-race maiden who has been performing respectably in 1m handicaps this winter without strongly suggesting his turn is near; today's longer trip needs to help him pull out a bit more. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (10) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Finished behind a couple of today's rivals at Newcastle last time, but shaped as if he's still in reasonably good form; however, still needs to show he has what it takes to win (record is 0-14). |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 (12) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

0-13 but he's on a reduced mark and was an eyecatching third behind Trais Fluors over C&D four weeks ago; that was only his fourth run on AW and has possibilities if he can back that up. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Decent record over C&D but lacks consistency and there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark (Doncaster win last month came off 3lb lower); others hold stronger claims. |
16/1 |

4th 4 (2) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |

Gained his second win on turf when landing a Doncaster handicap under Elle-May Croot 12 days ago, bouncing back from a lesser effort; can't be dismissed off this 4lb higher mark. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Had only won once since the autumn of 2023 until he fired off a hat-trick under Lauren Young this May, culminating with a Carlisle win (good; made all); still looks feasibly treated on that form but he's been disappointing in his last two runs and this is step back up in grade; one of three runners for Jim Goldie. |

Had only won once since the autumn of 2023 until he fired off a hat-trick under Lauren Young up in trip this May, culminating with C&D success (good; made all) off 4lb lower five weeks ago; the Cumberland Plate proved a bridge too far here ten days ago but this is easier. |

C&D win in June (good ground) and he has performed to a fair level in defeat since; has more races in him but suspicion he would prefer quicker ground. |

2nd 3 (8) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

9-70, with the most recent success coming at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in June off a 3lb lower mark than today's; consistent since and this hold-up performer has claims if things drop favourably. |

Losing run is mounting up but he's currently in a consistent vein of form; moved out of Ben Haslam's yard since last run; again has frame possibilities. |

3rd 5 (1) |
19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

4th 9 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Quirky sort who has sometimes snatched defeat from the jaws of victory this season, partly through idling in front; has the ability to record a fourth C&D win, provided new headgear works a treat. |
11/4 |
|
4th 9 (12) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has three C&D wins to his name, including this race in 2023; retains ability but threw away a golden opportunity at Leicester last month and a subsequent Newcastle run was below his recent best too; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
14/1 |
|
6th 4 (9) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of nine races, including C&D, and arrives in good form having finished second in three of his last four races; did rather throw away his latest start at Leicester though, surging to the lead 1f out but dossing in front and picked off close home; has the ability to win but he will need producing late. |

9st 6lb |
Novice winner who is 0-12 in handicaps but has shown positive signs with second-place finishes at Beverley (behind Anificas Beauty on worse terms) and Hamilton the last twice, despite taking a good hold both times; possibilities, especially if settling better. |
7/2 |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |

Only win so far was in a Catterick novice in May 2025 (7f, good to firm); best run this term when second at Beverley last time (8.5f, good to firm); a possible. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 11 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Largely out of sorts this season, beating just two in 1m Ripon handicap last time; not easy to make a case for. |
