21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Only 1lb above a winning return to turf at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in May; not so good in two runs on grass since but his efforts in soft-ground sprints in 2025 suggest he might well be a factor back on this surface. |

Not as good or consistent as he was and is always capable of fluffing the start; has been running over 6f on turf in recent times and will need things to fall just so back to 5f. |

Won this in 2024 (good) and fourth of 16 last year (soft); went close at Newmarket (5f, good) last month and, although this 8yo wasn't seen to best effect when third of four at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) eight days later, he's firmly in calculations back at Doncaster. |

Commendable third of 18 on seasonal debut at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in May and bounced back from lesser effort when close second at Newmarket (5f, good) last week; remains on a workable mark and the forecast rain won't faze him; shortlisted. |

Won at Southwell (6f, AW) in April and was only beaten a head here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago with a yawning gap back to the rest; 4lb rise not the end of the world and good to soft ground wouldn't be a problem, but another furlong may have been preferable. |

Broke her duck in a Southwell handicap last month then bungled the start before seeing little daylight when fourth of 18 at Ascot (6f, good to firm; Fantasy Master third) 19 days ago; looked to finish that event with a fair bit more to give and she's a key player. |

Won at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) and Brighton (7f, good to firm) this summer then runner-up at Brighton (7f, good) when bidding for a hat-trick; he's back into a bigger field today but ran well in such a scenario at Ascot in May and this in-form contender might have a part to play. |

Kicked off campaign with two good runs in competitive Class 4 handicaps (6f/7f, good to firm/good) and he capitalised on the drop back in grade to win at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) last month despite hanging badly left; the placed horses have both won since and he's gone up just 1lb; key player. |

Sterling work in 2025, winning five times over 6f, including two over this C&D (good to firm; has also won on soft); winless this year but she lost her lead only late on to Melissa Honey here in August and looks sure to be involved in her first course run since. |

Five-time winner (soft/good to firm); runner-up at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in July and went close at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) next time, but she was down the field on the AW at Southwell two weeks ago (has won there); needs to bounce back but could do. |

Ex-Irish 7yo who had a much higher mark this time last year; well backed all day and on course when winning over C&D 12 days ago, and there's every chance he can defy a 3lb rise under Ashley Lewis, who has plenty of experience for his 3lb claim in this company. |

Bids for his third straight win in this race, 2lb higher than for his 2024 win and 1lb higher than 12 months ago; slow starts have been an issue in recent outings but he retains ability and it will be no surprise to see him go well with cheekpieces now given a go. |

Far from straightforward and his best form has come on AW; two good runs and three poor runs since joining Ruth Carr, his latest Newcastle fourth (blinkered first time) falling into the former category; not the most solid option but he is better than this level on his day and it is always worth a second look when Billy Loughnane is booked for the stable (four wins and four seconds from 22 rides). |

Blew hot and cold for Jack Channon and signs that it may be the same for new connections, shaping well at Wolverhampton in February but turning in lesser efforts twice since; well handicapped if this is one of his good days and the return of cheekpieces (first time for Ruth Carr) looks a plus. |
