9th 3 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
2-10 on the AW and 1-15 on turf; bounced back from a lesser effort at Thirsk (1m) when third of 13 in a classified event at Newcastle (7f, AW) last month; needs to back that up returned to turf. |
7/1 |

3rd 3 (13) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Needs to bounce back quickly from duff effort on turf nine days ago but has been placed here three times (7f-1m) since his 1m course win in February and has a big role to play if back on song. |
12/1 |

12th 6 (6) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner, the most recent in a classified at Newcastle (1m, AW) in February; ran well there three weeks ago and has to be considered returned to this level. |

8th 10 (9) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last eight starts in classifieds and he didn't always get the breaks when third over C&D 12 days ago; that was one of his better recent efforts and he's firmly in calculations. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive 8yo; running respectably at this level in 2026 but 2l behind Woodrafff at Newcastle last week; never threatened over 1m2f on Thursday; easy enough to look elsewhere. |
8/1 |
|
6th 10 (4) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Spent most of a long career racing at shy of 1m and didn't look to see it out in one try over this far (C&D); not as good now and can miss the break and/or pull hard, so comes with risks attached. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden but he has finished second in similar events over C&D on his last two starts, no match for an easy winner on each occasion; likely to be involved once again. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-15 but has often run well and he was second over C&D a fortnight ago, albeit no match for the rejuvenated winner; could be thereabouts. |

30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Made all to win a 7f classified stakes at Newcastle 11 days ago when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; below best in two previous runs over this trip (has won at 1m). |
5/1 |
|
1st 12 (5) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
No win since 2023 but he did record his best effort since returning from a 296-day break when second in 1m Southwell classified event 15 days ago; claims if in similar form with cheekpieces added. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 9 (2) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in December 2023 (all three of his wins came in 2023); struggled on his first two starts since returning from a 296-day break but he ran better at Newcastle (1m, AW) 28 days ago; blinkers removed. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Eight times an AW winner but he has run just three times on turf and offered little on each occasion; plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
|
8th 10 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Hasn't troubled the judge since returning in December from a short break and finished well behind Spirit Of Bowland over C&D last time. |
33/1 |
|
9th 8 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last win away from Newcastle was in 2021; slow starts have been holding him back so both classified fourths over C&D this month can arguably be upgraded; chance rests largely on the start. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a classified event at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) last February; beaten 3l when third in a similar event at Newcastle in January but she was below her best when visored for the first time (retained) there 28 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
11/2 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Wolverhampton classified event (8.6f) one year ago; promising third in a similar C&D event last month, chasing home two rivals who have more than upheld the form; won't need much of a lift from the change of headgear to play a leading role. |
7/2 |

7 (11) |
18th May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner who comes here on the back of a fair eighth of 13 at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last month; possibilities off an easing mark. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Usually runs at Newcastle and has never won elsewhere; inconsistent results in classified races this year; not beaten far at Southwell on penultimate but lacks solidity. |
25/1 |

10th 5 (1) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who does the vast majority of his racing here, winning three times (7f/1m) in the first half of 2024; needs to better his recent efforts to get heavily involved, though. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Responded well to second-time cheekpieces under Ruby Criscuolo at Brighton (1m4f) nine days ago, ending a long losing spell; placed over C&D the time before; in the mix, even with 4lb penalty. |
6/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
10st 6lb |
Both wins came when trained in Ireland in 2023; has made the frame in five of his last six races; returning cheekpieces replace visor but losing run is mounting up. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 (1) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Yet to add to his two Irish wins in 2023 but has performed well twice this month, finishing second in Windsor handicap (11.4f, good to firm) and fourth in classified race here (1m4f); this drop back in trip ought to suit; probably won't be far away. |
