17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
2-2 in AW novices last year and she retained her unbeaten record on handicap debut at Doncaster (also 6f, good to firm) in May; drop to 5f and soft ground didn't see her replicate her best in Ayr Listed event four weeks ago but better can be expected in this scenario. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Looked a good prospect when winning 6f novices at Kempton and Southwell last September; maintained her unbeaten record with a narrow success in a handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) seven weeks ago; drops to 5f on the slowest ground she will have faced but hard to knock an unbeaten filly. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Scored at Wolverhampton (6f) in January and largely in good nick since, challenging wide when sixth of ten in another 6f handicap there last time; can make his presence felt. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Only 3lb higher than for January's C&D win and has continued to run well; 6f specialist with a solid chance, despite stall 10. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won three times over 5f in 2025; got back on track in first-time cheekpieces with fourth of ten in 6f Chester handicap in June; no forlorn hope off a 2lb lower mark here with headgear retained. |
9/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Acts on good to soft and softer but his best form is at 5f and latest last of six at Haydock needs forgiving; cheekpieces go on after that; nothing wrong with this mark if they do have a positive effect, however. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner over 6f (good/good to soft), the most recent coming at Doncaster last summer off a 3lb lower mark; fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup in September (soft) and he ran well when second of 17 there last month; has to be respected. |
6/1 |

2nd 1 (14) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Fifth over C&D (soft) in Bronze Cup in September and filled same position in 19-runner Doncaster handicap (6f, good to soft) on reappearance in March; slightly disappointing on good to firm ground last time but conditions ought to be suitable for him today; one to consider. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent and winless this year and well beaten at York (6f, good to firm) recently; however, that was more competitive than this and two starts ago he ran well when third of 17 at Ayr (6f, good); may have a chance. |
6/1 |
|
19th 14 (18) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won a good C&D handicap last year and also successful at Ayr last September; 0-7 in 2026 but he retains all his ability and ran well for third (of 17) at Ayr 19 days ago; high draw a potential stumbling block. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner; finished well for fourth at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in May but has rather mixed record since returned to turf in April and never really got involved at York last time. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
In good form last June, winning off this mark over C&D (good) before an excellent second at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm); some fair efforts this season and on a good mark now; not out of it. |
4/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten on his last 14 starts and he's been expensive to follow in that time, but he was denied a clear run at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month and again ran well when fifth of 19 at York (7f, good) last time; could be thereabouts. |
