1st 4 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has done well since switched to Flat turf for his last two starts with the visor added, winning at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) in April before second of 12 in an apprentice handicap at Ascot (2m, good) last month (winner followed up at Chester on Saturday); up just another 1lb and high on the list. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Beaten a nose, a head and a neck in three bumpers; earned his mark over 1m and predictably did better upped in trip when scoring at Kempton (1m3f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) in March; rebounded from a blip next time when going in again at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm; first-time visor) a fortnight ago; dam half-sister to St Leger winner Brian Boru and this new trip could unlock more again; key player. |

1st 2 (6) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has worn cheekpieces since switched to handicaps, winning at Kempton (1m3f) then below par at Lingfield, both on AW; may rebound and have more to offer, provided he responds well to the fitting of visor. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dug in to score on his last spin over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft; from 3lb lower) in December; runner-up three times in succession on the Flat at Beverley recently, beaten 2l there (1m4f; 13-8 favourite) just ten days ago. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win on the Flat came here over 1m2f in June 2024 and he's finished runner-up over this C&D on his last two outings; no reason why he can't go well again. |
2/1 |

2nd 3 (3) |

Course winner who comes here on the back of a good second over C&D 11 days ago; can go well again eased 1lb. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Hasn't won for more than two years, but sound effort when length second over C&D in May (good to firm); each-way chance. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
No win since June 2024 off 15lb higher and he's never made much of an impact in his five AW races; he's still shown more than enough on turf this season to be considered, however. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Has won six races here, from 7.5f to 1m4f, the latest last August (1m4f, good to firm); creditable third here in May (8.5f, good) but below-par last two runs; could go well. |
11/1 |

7th 6 (11) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Loves it here and he's fine from this trip up to 1m4f; placed over the extended 1m here in May before finding the ground too slow at Carlisle; a wide draw isn't ideal, though. |
10/1 |

9st 2lb |
All six wins in Britain have been at Beverley, the latest over 7.5f last August (good); has also won at up to 1m4f there so has a chance following good run last time; soft ground a slight concern. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won two handicaps last July (1m4f, good and 1m6f, firm); he has finished second in two of his three runs this year, latterly beaten a short-head at Leicester 11 days ago (1m4f, good to firm); had just one run on slower than good and finished well beaten, so conditions may be a concern. |

A dual 1m4f/1m6f winner last summer and back in decent form of late, fifth in 1m4f Beverley handicap 16 days ago; possibilities. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Five-runner race at Carlisle (1m3f) last Saturday was first win since 2023 and she's a dependable sort who finished a C&D second (twice) and fourth in July 2024 and 2025 on her only three appearances at York; going back up 5lb since Carlisle seems to pose the difficulty but she should be on the premises. |
13/2 |
|
1st 3 (5) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Five-time winner who hasn't won since 2023 but she's run with credit on many subsequent occasions, including on her only visit here when second under Joanna Mason in this race last year; back in form on her last two starts and she's in calculations. |
4/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No win since completing a three-timer at 1m4f-2m in the autumn of 2023; however, she ran her best race of the year when going close at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last month; has a good run in her back up in trip. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won a Class 6 handicap in April (1m4f, good) but tailed off in his next Flat race and suffered the same fate back over hurdles at Uttoxeter (first-time blinkers now removed); looks risky. |
14/1 |
|
10th 3 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Has shown promise in five runs over hurdles, but was beaten 35l on handicap debut at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) in March; has won low-grade handicap on the Flat since; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; steps up in trip and not out of this. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Needed a drop to Class 6 to open his account in Catterick event (1m4f, good) last time; back up in grade but may build on that win and also have more to offer in the retained cheekpieces. |
