29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won comfortably after travelling strongly at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month but he's not hit the same level in two subsequent runs; ran respectably back at Leicester last time but he needs to find more to get back on the scoresheet. |

3rd 2 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won comfortably after travelling strongly over this C&D (good to firm) last month but his jockey reported he never travelled when fourth of nine under a penalty at Salisbury (6f, good) 30 days ago; now 2lb higher but he can't be dismissed. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Picking up his share of prize money this season, making the frame five times either side of his Pontefract (6f, good) win last month; despite that he is still 5lb lower than when a close fourth in this race 12 months ago; each-way shout. |
11/1 |

2nd 3 (7) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Finished second in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 4lb higher; back to winning ways at Pontefract (6f, good) this month and his latest C&D third was another good run; place claims once again. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Off the mark for the year when comfortably seeing off nine rivals at Pontefract (6f, good) 11 days ago; 2lb well in under a penalty; ran well over C&D last summer; solid claims. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Has a patchy profile but he won at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in May and finished close-up in sixth there 18 days ago; remains feasibly treated on his win in this race last year and he's 2-2 at Nottingham; interesting contender. |
11/4 |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Resumed winning ways at Thirsk (6f) in May but comes here on the back of a below-par fifth of nine in 6f Pontefract handicap two weeks ago; needs to bounce back. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Often front-runner who won at Leicester (7f, good) in April and over this C&D (good to firm) last month; bit below his best at Chepstow 17 days ago but soft ground may have been against him (also lost a shoe). |
9/2 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
In fine form since returned to turf this spring, winning at Leicester (7f, good) in April and at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) ten days ago; up another 3lb but this gutsy front-runner is a likely player once more. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Eight-time AW winner but he's 1-21 on turf; placed a couple of times this season, including over C&D (good to firm) in April, but he's not easy to predict and was out the back at Doncaster last time; has another switch of headgear and he comes with risks attached. |
9/2 |
|
8th 6 (9) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 6f scorer last season; comes here on the back of a good third of eight in 6f Leicester handicap last month so needs considering. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
He has a much better strike-rate on AW than turf and was well beaten over C&D last time; however, prior to that he was second of six at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) and is not written off today. |
9/1 |
