16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner who posted five wins last year and reappeared with another at Musselburgh (1m, good) in April; unplaced on both starts since and, while she didn't run badly back at Musselburgh last time, she's taking on 3yos this afternoon and may again prove vulnerable. |

7th 3 (9) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runs; major improvement for this yard in 2025, winning five times, including over C&D; improved on those efforts when coming clear in fine style over 1m here (good) on reappearance but she ran poorly when going unpenalised at Redcar next time and now has an 8lb higher mark on her plate; probably wouldn't want much rain. |

Started the season with three second-place finishes at around 1m; 50-1 and finished out with the washing in a Class 3 at Hamilton 18 days ago; this is more suitable. |

Three wins from 27 starts include one here over 8.5f last May; has finished second in each of his three starts this season (good to soft/soft) but has a bit to do to reverse placings with Return To Unit from their meeting at Nottingham (8.5f, soft) two months ago. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained a first success for current yard at Ayr (7f) in May and has proved reliable since, runner-up in 11-runner handicap at Musselburgh (7f) two weeks ago; he can go well again nudged up 1lb. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Never really looked dangerous in recent big-field York race won by Jonny Concrete but was in good form beforehand, most notably when winning at Ayr (7f, good to firm) in May; each-way claims at least if back on song. |

Won at Ayr (7f, good to firm) in May and has continued in good form, beaten a short head when second of five at Hamilton (6f, good) a fortnight ago; back up in grade today but could give another good account. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Ex-Irish; beaten a neck by Saytaar over C&D (25-1; from 5lb higher, on stable debut) in March; form has nosedived since June, weakening quickly in an added visor (now discarded) at Redcar latest; return of Conor Whiteley is a plus. |

Ex-Irish 5yo; started off for current stable with two good runs over 1m in the spring but has suffered a worrying slump in form since and needs to be perked up by the addition of a visor. |

Went close over C&D in March on stable debut and another good run when fourth at Musselburgh (1m) next time; below par at York on his last two starts but he tackled 1m2f last time and is not ruled out back down to 1m. |

9st 7lb |
Three course wins (6f-1m) and a multitude of placed efforts, including a close third to Saytaar (Harry The Rogue second) over C&D in March; has struggled on turf in his last three appearances (7.5f-1m2f) but his mark has eased accordingly. |

All three wins from 36 starts have been on the AW at Newcastle (6f/1m); solid effort when third at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last month but he needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract (1m) three weeks ago; has stamina to prove for this longer trip. |

Won at Newbury (1m, good) in May on third start for this yard and followed up when unpenalised at Yarmouth (1m, good) five days later; runner-up off this 6lb higher mark at Goodwood (1m1f, good to soft) last time, when outstayed, and he could play a leading role back down to 1m. |

Suffered two near misses in July, on the AW and over C&D (good to firm; prominent in both those races); turn looks near, though she'd have questions to answer should the ground ease. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins for Robert Eddery came over a stiff, undulating 7f, so has that in her favour; lacked consistency for new yard, below par in first-time cheekpieces latest (headgear now off, tongue-tie on), but could easily bounce back. |

10yo who gained the latest of his eight career wins over this C&D (good; wore blinkers) last summer; soundly beaten on both outings this year but has blinkers refitted today and it won't be a shock if he stages a revival. |

Dual winner at Ayr (7f, good to firm/good) this year but his recent record is very mixed and he was last of five over that C&D 11 days ago; not easy to predict here and probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |

Down the field over 6f and then in a higher grade than this on last two starts but he has more going for him back over C&D, having won his first attempt last August (good) and then quite readily in May (good to firm); solid claims for last year's winning trainer-jockey combination. |

Six wins last season included one over C&D; went close at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) in June and Ayr (1m, good) last month, before landing a 0-80 at York (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago; steps back up in grade but can't be discounted. |

Consistent type who won six times last season and arrives on the back of two close seconds; this race looks deeper than his last two but he's in fine form and unlikely to be far away. |

All 13 wins have come elsewhere but he does have course form and he did so well when going close at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) last week; however, he's now 6lb higher than his September win which might be a step too far. |

Rounded off last season with a game win here (1m Class 5, good to soft; from 4lb lower), that his 13th win; struggled in a competitive Sunday Series Handicap at Musselburgh 24 days ago, and it might be a similar story here; stablemate of Pearl Eye and Motawaared. |
