8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Gained all three wins on Tapeta but kept on well for close second of 17 on turf at York (5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and is respected off just 2lb higher here. |

2nd 8 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Had slipped in the weights before returning to form when second of 12 at Newcastle last month, coming close to landing a gamble; still 4lb below his last winning mark and should be in the mix again. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Five AW wins since last September (6f/5f) and beaten only about 4l when ninth of 17 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) two months ago, when last seen; this is less competitive and she could be involved. |
15/2 |

9th 16 (12) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
The winner of five AW handicaps (5f-6f) since September for her new stable; 6lb higher than for the latest of them and others appeal as being better treated. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a tremendous spell for new yard between September and January, winning five at 6f (two here) or 5f; her handicap mark has taken a battering but a recent second at Southwell suggests she's not weighted out of it; Ryan Kavanagh 2-2 on her and she can be thereabouts again. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1-21; close fourth at Thirsk (6f, good; from 7lb higher) in April; has lost his way since, failing to beat many in 5f contests at Pontefract, Beverley, and Chester; questions to be answered for the time being. |
20/1 |

9th 10 (5) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Only run to form once in four runs back on turf this summer and that was over 6f; still 1lb higher than for his AW win in December; others appeal more. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Blitzed his rivals at Southwell in December (5f) when a visor was first used; mostly creditable efforts since until down the field at Pontefract on latest; needs to bounce back from that. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Has won twice on the AW since finishing well held in this 12 months ago but hasn't offered all that much in his last three races. |
20/1 |
|
8th 4 (8) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Added another two AW wins to his tally earlier in the year; unplaced in three runs back on turf but dropping back into a Class 4 should help; others preferred all the same. |
8/1 |
|
7th 7 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Successful twice over 5f at Southwell this year; ran respectably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) in April but he was laboured in similar conditions at York two weeks ago; has bit to prove again after that and he's never won off a mark this high. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Maintained unbeaten Ripon record (3-3; all 5f) when seeing off Rock Of England and Mark's Choice in early July; ran respectably in Class 2 at Goodwood (5f) before toiling at Pontefract; fairly treated but effectiveness over 6f is questionable. |
16/1 |

8th 8 (7) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Soundly beaten over C&D (good to firm) two runs ago but prior to that he won at Ripon (5f, good), and he posted a respectable effort at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last time; he's won here four times; not ruled out. |
16/1 |
|
11th 24 (11) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Exposed ten-time winner who was down the field in this 12 months ago when 1lb higher; won at Ripon this month (no headgear) before finishing fifth of seven 11 days ago at Pontefract (visored); a long time since he wore blinkers. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Veteran; goes well on soft ground and ran a fine race when second to Trilby (2lb worse off for 0.5l) at Haydock last time (5f, soft; tongue-tie tried); tongue-tie retained and sound each-way chance. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
21st May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
His mark continues to fall but for good reason and this 9yo arrives with plenty to prove; wears a first-time tongue-tie; visor is removed. |
