26th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Weakened quickly 2f out when 11-10 favourite trying 2m at Musselburgh in April and he was pulled up; absent since (withdrawn in May with a bruised foot) and he wasn't seen last term after August, but he scored over about 1m4f (on good to firm/AW) on his last two completed starts and, tongue tied first time, this lightly raced 4yo could still have potential. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Runaway winner of four-runner novice at Catterick (upped to 1m4f, good to firm) last August; had wind surgery in November and a clearcut win when favourite for seven-runner handicap at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) five weeks ago; should stay and 6lb rise doesn't look harsh; well related and could easily have more to offer, so the hat-trick beckons. |

30th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won Wolverhampton novice (9.4f, AW) last December and placed this year in her first four handicaps, including a close call over C&D; creditable fourth at Lingfield was much the best of her last three starts; blinkers replace recent cheekpieces; chance if back to her C&D best. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won Wolverhampton novice (9.4f, AW) last December and placed this year in her first four handicaps; close fourth at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) recently after two-month break but form has to go to a new level in this hotter contest. |
33/1 |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Only made her debut last October and has proved consistent on the AW (5221222), the win coming at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) in December; return to an artificial surface a positive, but she may need further than this now and could be vulnerable to the 3yos. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual AW winner (1m/1m2f) who hasn't improved for the fitting of cheekpieces and needs to put a modest effort at Kempton (2m) 16 days ago behind her; not solid on turf debut. |
8/1 |

8th 6 (1) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won a novice here and her one handicap win was on Newcastle AW; moved up from 1m4f to 2m for warm race at Lingfield (AW) eight weeks ago and, although below best, did not appear beaten by the trip as she plugged on into fourth of 14 with first-time cheekpieces; may have more to offer as a stayer. |
13/2 |

4th 9 (2) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced since her debut early last year, winning at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) and Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta); steps up another half-mile in trip, but she shapes like a stayer and is worthy of respect, especially if strong in the market; cheekpieces are given a go. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Out of her depth in Listed company at Pontefract (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but suggested she retains ability after returning from another lengthy absence in March; return to a longer trip may suit and respected down in grade. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't won since landing a Doncaster novice in July 2024 but has been fairly consistent in handicaps; out of her depth in a Listed contest at Pontefract last time but should run her race here. |
7/1 |

9th 3 (1) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Has fairly useful figures but an underwhelming strike-rate and this is the most difficult task of her career (has the worst chance at the weights); fifth in the Thirsk handicap won by Brielle most recently. |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Went back-to-back over C&D and at Chester last summer; 0-10 since last success but that was off 5lb higher and he gave it a good shot when a close third at Pontefract (1m4f, good) last week; has leading claims if he can back that up and he's still unexposed on AW. |

3rd 1 (6) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Went back-to-back last summer (about 1m4f, AW/good) but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; soft ground provides a possible excuse at Beverley last time but others are still preferred. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Went back-to-back last summer (about 1m4f, AW/good) and he's been beaten 3l or less on his last four starts, including in first-time cheekpieces (retained) four weeks ago; soft ground would be an unknown but he's below his last winning mark and drops back down in grade. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Not as good as he was in France and last two runs have been well below his best; however, on too good a mark to dismiss and inmates from this yard can return to form from nowhere. |

3rd 3 (6) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |

Not as good now but remains generally consistent and is back on the mark off which he won here (1m2f) in the winter; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort over C&D when last seen six weeks ago. |

14th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Absent since June but he will appreciate the return to AW and is 1lb lower than for his last win; this looks too competitive though. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won three handicaps at Lingfield (1m4f-1m5f, AW) this winter; never a threat when fourth back on turf at Windsor last month; others hold stronger claims. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All eight wins have been on AW but he's lost his way with heavy defeats at Newcastle (12.4f, Tapeta) and Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in last two runs; still lightly raced on turf but he needs a major revival back in this sphere. |
