27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
1m2f winner on good ground at Nottingham in April (4lb lower) but has dropped his guard the last twice and he's been contesting Class 5s, so this demands a fair bit more even if back in the groove. |
20/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Unraced on ground slower than good; off the mark for this yard when winning over C&D in April and he ran another solid race when third of ten at Kempton (1m3f, AW) next time; however, he was reported to have ran flat at Newmarket 19 days ago and needs to bounce back; hood removed. |

Lightly raced 7yo who can race freely; off the mark for this yard when beating 13 others at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April; backed that up with creditable third (AW) when 1m3f just looked to stretch him 11 days ago; player. |

9st 7lb |
Nine-time winner, the most recent coming on the AW at Newcastle in February off a 1lb lower mark; beaten 1l when runner-up at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April and his last two efforts have been respectable; each-way chance. |
8/1 |

4th 5 (5) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Grand stable servant who wins in his turn; successful at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February and has made the frame back on turf on his last two starts; place claims once again. |
8/1 |

4th 1 (5) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |

Second in the 2024 running of this; nine wins include five on turf, all around this trip on a sound surface; won at Newcastle (AW) in February and it was a fine effort from the widest stall when second of 14 at Nottingham (also 1m2f, good) 11 days ago; big shout. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
0-5 in Ireland for Dermot Weld but he caught the eye on his stable debut over C&D 46 days ago, staying on for third behind Caph Star having been denied a clear run; that was his first start since October and this unexposed gelding is on the shortlist. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (15) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
0-5 in maidens at up to 1m4f in Ireland for Dermot Weld; sold for 16,000euros in November; remains unexposed but the betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations on handicap and yard debut after seven months off; drawn widest. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time winner, the latest coming at Bath (1m, good) in April off a 2lb lower mark; had an excuse when below his best at Thirsk and bounced back to form when third of seven behind Jack Sparowe at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) 24 days ago; could go well. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk last time but he can be given a pass as he was tight for room at a crucial stage; Billy Loughnane back on board today and his record for him reads 4111; one to take seriously. |
4/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his Wolverhampton win on Boxing Day; added further wins at Wolverhampton (twice) and Bath (1m, good) since; similar form when fourth at Nottingham two weeks ago (1m2f, good); shouldn't be far away if the ground is deemed suitable (untried on faster than good). |

9st 6lb |
Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative. |
10/1 |

8th 8 (3) |

A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025; back to form when third of nine in 1m Pontefract handicap ten days ago so ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Held up; ran creditably sole start here (2024); latest of his two wins came when dropped into Class 6 at Bath (1m2f, firm) in May, before a Class 4 at Yarmouth saw a lesser effort; should be competitive in this race. |
9/1 |

5th 5 (7) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Dropped into Class 6 company at Bath (1m2f, firm) last month and proved far too strong for eight rivals; a 7lb rise against better opposition asks more of him but he's still one to consider. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Resumed winning ways at Lingfield (1m, AW) in June but scuppered his chance (not for first time) with a very slow start when beating one at Wolverhampton (8.5f) since. |
7/1 |
|
12th 3 (4) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Hasn't always looked straightforward but found things falling his way when winning narrowly off 2lb lower on Polytrack two weeks ago; fine on Tapeta but his jockey, who doesn't claim, has only ridden twice under rules, including once over hurdles in Ireland. |
10/1 |

1st 4 (5) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Tapeta win last summer came off this mark and the booking of Rossa Ryan is a positive as he returns to the AW after three ordinary efforts on turf; not always looked straightforward and interesting to see whether support comes this time. |

Low-mileage 4yo who arrives in good form, third of seven in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster 15 days ago; not out of things in his bid for a maiden victory. |
7/2 |

3rd 3 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Form figures of 323 in maiden/novice events but he's been well held in four handicaps; may have had stamina issues over 2m at Lingfield (AW) last month but he needs to raise his game on this big drop back in trip. |
7/2 |

4th 2 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |

Low-mileage 4yo; safely held in first three handicaps (1m-1m2f) but this big hike up in trip is an interesting move; cheekpieces removed after one use; well worth a glance in the bettting. |

9st 6lb |
Two course wins on slower than good, the latest off 2lb lower last September; added a 1m2f success at Lingfield in January and his subsequent modest effort at Nottingham may have been needed after three-months off; more appealing than many. |
7/1 |
|
9th 3 (8) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Back to winning ways on Lingfield's AW (1m2f) in January; his four successes prior to that all came on turf (including 1m here) so he should remain competitive off only 2lb higher if fully primed after three months off. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Landed her seventh win when scoring at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month but has run below par at Ripon and Musselburgh since; the step back in trip is also unlikely to play to her strengths. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Landed hat-trick last August and hit the target at Pontefract two runs ago (all 1m2f); follow-up effort at Ripon, where she's won three times, was bitterly disappointing 13 days ago and her favoured hold-up tactics aren't easy to execute around here. |
5/1 |

7th 2 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All of her seven turf wins have been on good/good to firm but she's effective on good to soft; well held in first three runs this season but she got back on the scoresheet with a strong finish at Pontefract (1m2f, good) two weeks ago; up 3lb for that narrow success but she's 3-6 over C&D and she defied this mark here last summer; key player. |

Made all on good to firm at Newbury (1m; first-time cheekpieces, kept since) in July and doubled his tally when picking up AW handicap (1m2f) in March; raced freely when underwhelming on last two starts but drops in grade and has already dipped below his last winning mark. |
