1st 14 (11) |
16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
3yo who won at Epsom (6f, good to soft) in August on first start since being gelded; hasn't run badly when fifth at Chester (6f, heavy) and here (6f, heavy) on his two starts since but needs something extra today. |
16/1 |

5th 14 (2) |
26th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Acts well on soft and heavy and appeared to appreciate good to soft ground when beating six rivals at Epsom (6f; first run since gelded) in August; was up against it from a wide draw at Chester since but he came home strongly and has more of a level playing field this time; possibilities. |
16/1 |

5th 9 (14) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Back from a break (gelded) before doubling his tally for the season in 6f handicap at Epsom (good to soft) 19 days ago; up 4lb but the runner-up has gone in since so he's in the picture if he can overcome his wide berth. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 1-11 but his won was off 1lb higher at Southwell (5f, AW) in January and he ran well for a long way in a Class 4 handicap at Newmarket (fifth of eighth) 11 days ago; headgear is now added and he could make a bold bid on this drop back in grade. |
5/2 |

5th 8 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
In good form on AW prior to respectable fourth at Sandown (5f, good) in April off 4lb higher; however, two lesser runs have followed; upset in the stalls and withdrawn at York on last intended start (22-1 at the time). |

Began the year with two good runs at Southwell but backwards steps in three runs back on turf; others look stronger. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Best efforts have come over 5f on Tapeta and he's now 2lb below the mark off which he won a C&D nursery last winter thanks to a couple of below-par runs on turf; does need to bounce back, though, following a short layoff. |
7/1 |
|
10th 8 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't run badly at Windsor in May but that run is sandwiched by two lesser turf runs; connections now turn to a tongue tie and cheekpieces. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (1) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Held since winning a couple of nurseries on Tapeta last backend, latterly off 3lb lower; looked to find the sixth furlong beyond him last time but he has to prove this mark is within range on turf. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Up and down over 5f during this 3yo campaign; steps back up in trip for the first time since his debut but others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
8th 7 (6) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Up and down during this 3yo campaign but he was a good third at Musselburgh (5f, good) in April and would have been closer than sixth at Chester (5f, good) recently granted a clear run; could be involved. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
A winner for the Crisfords; nearly won again at Musselburgh in April (5f) but has trailed home last in his two races since, latterly with a tongue-tie and blinkers tried (now removed); drawn wide. |

19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won two of her last three races, at Thirsk in July and Windsor in August (both over 6f on good to firm); had a break since last win; a possible. |
6/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made the most of her declining mark when regaining winning form off 2lb lower at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last month; lost her race at the start at Bath a fortnight later and a major player if breaking on terms this time. |

17th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
5f novice (good) winner last spring whose best form this term came when fourth of 14 at Beverley (5f, good to soft) in May; way below that level in four subsequent starts, however; cheekpieces, worn on the last two occasions, are removed. |
16/1 |
|
13th 7 (10) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a victory since his debut and tried in cheekpieces when a below-par eighth of 12 in 5f Beverley handicap 16 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |
40/1 |
|
8th 12 (6) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ran quite well over C&D in May and he is 7lb lower today; that is a result of two lacklustre efforts subsequently and connections now turn to cheekpieces; risky but not impossible. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won a Southwell novice (5f, Tapeta) in February but she's finished down the field in five handicaps since; had a wide trip over C&D (first-time visor) two weeks ago but she's now 1-11 and others are more convincing. |
8/1 |
|
6th 3 (7) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won a Southwell novice (5f, Tapeta) early this year, but she's struggled in four handicaps since April; continues to drop down the weights but she has plenty to prove and needs new headgear to make a big difference. |
20/1 |
|
10th 12 (9) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has run well over C&D in maiden and novice events but her win came over 5f on Southwell AW and she has yet to cut the mustard in handicaps; her mark is sliding slowly but she needs more for the win. |
16/1 |
