21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner whose last success was over C&D in May; hasn't made a serious impact since then but he did best of the hold-up performers here (fifth of 11) here last time and is now back on his last winning mark; dangerous. |
11/2 |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and in good form until just seventh of 12 in 6f Newmarket handicap 25 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |
10/1 |

7th 2 (11) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Multiple sprint wins but has run only three times over 7f, returning to the trip for the first time in three years when outstayed late after making the running at Thirsk 12 days ago; won over 6f next time but stamina still in question over this far. |
13/2 |

7th 4 (1) |
5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Both his wins in 2026 have come over C&D, the latest last month off a 2lb lower mark; beaten favourite off the same mark back here 11 days ago but ran okay; new mark has kicked in but likely to give a good account |
5/1 |
|
4th 16 (1) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Prominent racer who took his C&D form figures to 1131 when seeing off 11 rivals in an apprentice race on good last Thursday; same mark here so ought to make a bold bid, particularly from the inside draw. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Recent form-figures look unappealing but he's probably in better heart than they suggest, ending up with too much to do at Ripon last week; successful on only previous start at Redcar, much earlier in career, and he's now 6lb lower than when winning at Thirsk in the spring; no forlorn hope. |
12/1 |
|
8th 12 (10) |
26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark for 2026 at Thirsk (5f) in May and has proved reliable since; had usual headgear left off when well held at Beverley (5f) ten days ago and no surprise to see him bounce back in refitted cheekpieces. |
40/1 |
|
10th 9 (12) |
16th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Scored at Thirsk (6f) in May and largely in good form since, coming home third in his group when midfield in 20-runner handicap at Ripon (6f) last time; can make his presence felt off a 2lb lower mark for yard that has taken past two runnings. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer who won twice at around 7f on turf in the spring but he's been well held in last three runs; has won on AW in the past but he needs to rediscover his spark back in this sphere. |
14/1 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Prominent racer; successful over C&D in May off 2lb lower but not in the same form twice since; well drawn to attack but there are other pace influences to deal with. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (1) |
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). |

16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
1-22 on turf compared to 8-27 on the AW but that turf success came over this C&D last May (good to soft); ran well here two months ago when last seen, taking his course form figures to 5323313522, and has solid place claims. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
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. |
