10st 3lb |
Second runner for yard; won at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) in May; some consistent efforts since and found his way back to the winner's enclosure at Navan (1m, good) eight days ago; respected on these terms but trip may be too short (first try at 6f). |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time winner (8.5f-1m2f) who is often slowly away; ran well when third at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) last time in a race won by a subsequent winner; has since left Iain Jardine having been bought for £5,000; has the hood removed for his stable debut and has stamina to prove. |

Has never won above Class 6 and doesn't look as if he's about to put that right; consistent spell has been terminated by his form taking a dip in last few runs. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran who led close home over 1m5f here (good to firm) last month, his 13th success; also suited by this shorter trip, but was effectively 3lb below that last winning mark when only fourth over C&D a week later and his new mark has taken effect; younger rivals look better treated. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran who was recording his 12th win at the track when leading close home over 1m5f last week; able to race off a 3lb lower mark today and he has to be of interest from a handicapping perspective. |
5/1 |
|
1st 6 (3) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Long in the tooth now and needs to better his recent efforts but was close third off 4lb higher at Hamilton (1m1f, good to firm) in May and is probably better suited by today's trip; can't rule out. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
In-form 5yo who won twice over C&D last month (good/good to firm); probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 4lb rise but ought to be on the premises again. |
4/1 |
|
1st 1 (9) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple turf winner who made it 2-2 over C&D when bouncing back with a comfortable success (good) three weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 3lb higher and he won't mind if the forecast rain arrives; key player. |
4/1 |
|
1st 7 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Needs to rebound from a substandard AW run ten days ago but made the frame on two of three turf starts in the spring (both times over 1m1f) and this longer trip probably suits better; can't be ignored off current mark. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two-time course scorer who came in a close third at Ayr (Off Spin in second) before extending her run of good efforts with a close fifth of 12 in 1m2f handicap there 13 days ago; a player once more eased 1lb. |
11/4 |
|
5th 11 (11) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner (1m/1m2f); not the force of old but returned from break with respectable runs of late, most recently when a never-nearer third over C&D (good) yesterday; should be in the thick of it if turning out again. |
8/1 |

3rd 6 (8) |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Gave good account when second at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) 11 days ago and is also suited by this C&D but his strike-rate now stands at 0-32 and he's not the percentage call. |
10/1 |

2nd 6 (2) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |

She won a heavy-ground 2yo novice in October 2024 but is 0-13 since and judged on recent evidence it's probably best to look elsewhere. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Only win in 17 races came in a 2yo novice for former yard; fairly well held this year from 6f to 1m2f but has never been lower in the weights. |

6th 13 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won 1m2f Bath novice as 2yo but just middling form from the front here of late, over 1m2f, 7f and 6f; dropping down the weights but this is competitive and the other two from the yard look more interesting. |

Maiden prior to registering wins at Hamilton in June and on penultimate start; creditable third, one place behind Storm On Jura, when favourite over C&D (heavy) eight days ago; remains in form. |
5/1 |

3rd 3 (2) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |

Prevailed by almost 3l at Hamilton (1m3f, soft) last time, adding to his June C&D success; raised 5lb but Lauren Young (back on board) claims the same amount; enters calculations. |

6th 10 |
23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Lowly rated three-time Flat winner (7f-1m2f); hasn't managed to beat too many rivals in her last three starts (1m2f-1m3f); no reason to expect better, in a refitted hood, on hurdles debut. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Well beaten on his last two starts, over C&D (soft) most recently, but he has a good record here and he won at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) three starts ago; also effective on slow ground; not discounted. |
11/1 |

6th 6 (7) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Plenty of good efforts since the blinkers went on, including an all-the-way win over C&D (good to firm; acts on soft) in June; also made all over 1m1f at Musselburgh towards the end of August and it may be worth forgiving a lesser effort at Carlisle last week after a slowish start meant he was unable to take up his usual front-running role (also pulled too hard); C&D form figures of 23122 earn him a place on the shortlist. |
10/1 |

10th 3 (4) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

He was gaining his second win of the summer when making all in a 1m1f handicap at Musselburgh 16 days ago; up 3lb but won't mind what the weather does and he'll be fine back at 7f; high on the list. |

Yet to make any further progress since winning 1m Ripon maiden a year ago and has been safely held on all three starts this season; might be aided by new tongue-tie and/or cheekpieces, though. |

Veteran (5-81) stablemate of Zebra Star; respectable third over 1m here (good to firm) in July, but could make only minimal inroads over C&D (fifth; 22-1) latest; this is a slightly easier task. |
