28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Successful over 1m in May and 1m2f latest start, both times at Ayr; broadly consistent in between; back up 2lb and in class but Lauren Young takes off a handy 5lb; could go well. |
12/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Scored here (1m) in May and she's run some good races since including a close call at Hamilton (1m3f) in June; remains feasibly treated on that form but both wins have been on good to firm and she was well below form on soft ground at Haydock two weeks ago. |

6th 7 (4) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Consistent in defeat since winning over 1m at Ayr (good to firm) in May but looks to be biting off more than she can chew from out of the handicap in this higher grade; has raced mainly on good or firmer and needs to prove she's fully effective on softer ground. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Ayr winner in July (1m, good to firm) and solid runs since then off today's 5lb higher mark, finishing just ahead of Milteye (Walsingham further back) on his return to Ayr and then beating all bar a Prescott 3yo on the AW; hard to knock. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Gained his seventh success when winning at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in July and ran another solid race there last month off the same mark as today's; respected but he is yet to win off a mark this high. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran; inconsistent this season and needs to bounce back quickly from down-the-field run at Nottingham (1m2f, good) on Thursday but this C&D suits him and he has slipped to a tempting mark; can't be ruled out. |
14/1 |

11th 7 (2) |
1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
He's well handicapped on his season's best form but this 11yo needs to produce more than he's managed on his last few starts and he hasn't won beyond 1m since 2018. |
10/1 |

5th 10 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |

Contesting this race for a sixth time and he won it back in 2020; well beaten last year but he's run some good races in defeat this campaign and a long time since this low in the weights. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Notched a pair of C&D handicap wins at the end of last year and progressed again to score twice over 1m at Carlisle at the beginning of the summer; operating below his best since and has a 5lb penalty for each win so he's not favoured by the conditions of this seller. |
9/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 208y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won a total of four 1m handicaps at Newcastle (AW) and Carlisle between last November and June; broadly not in the same form since; others are more appealing at the weights. |
8/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Went up the weights for his 1m wins on fast ground at Carlisle this summer but back to some form with a 4l fifth on heavy at Beverley 13 days ago; hard to know whether the return of cheekpieces (in which he's 5100) is a good thing or not. |

10st 0lb |
C&D winner (from a similar mark, beat Criminal Shore) last October; runner-up to well-treated rival over C&D (9-1) penultimate start; reluctant to load, fluffing his chance with a slow start at Redcar (1m; last of 14) latest; possible if back on song. |
13/2 |

14th 5 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Strong traveller who sometimes flatters to deceive; close second to a recent Glorious Goodwood winner on latest turf start, at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) in June, and also ran well on AW last month but has modest 2-32 strike-rate and others appeal more for win purposes; usually wears blinkers or cheekpieces but goes only in a first-time tongue-tie here. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 9 (9) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who comes here on the back of a good second of five in 1m Doncaster handicap last month, just failing; not out of things despite a 2lb weights rise. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |

Veteran who has been a prolific winner down the years, including at Carlisle; not solid on 2026 form but this drop back in grade may have positive effect; successful in last Class 5 attempt. |
11/1 |

6th 10 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
18 visits to Ayr have yielded nine wins, the latest last September; the return to Ayr could be the catalyst for a big run but he's struggled at Musselburgh and Thirsk this year and a major turnaround is needed from this 12yo. |
25/1 |
|
12th 15 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Sprung a 66-1 surprise in this on good to firm in 2022 (also fourth in 2024); added career win number 17, as an 11yo, at Ayr (1m, good to soft) last September but arrives with something to prove after finishing tailed off behind a couple of these on his Musselburgh reappearance. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Missed the break when down the field at Hamilton (1m1f, good) in August; before that he won in good style at Nottingham (1m, soft) in his second handicap; this lightly raced 4yo is unexposed on slow ground and could have a big part to play; the blinkers worn on his last two starts are left off. |
7/1 |
|
10th 2 (7) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Won a maiden at Nottingham (8.5f, good) last October and doubled his tally when landing a handicap on soft ground over that same C&D in first-time blinkers two months ago; now 8lb higher but this lightly raced 4yo should still have more to offer; stable won this in 2022. |
3/1 |

1st 4 (2) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Improved with each run as a 3yo, getting off the mark in a C&D maiden last October (good ground); couldn't land a blow on his seasonal/handicap debut at Ayr (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago, but still has potential and blinkers could help unlock it. |

When successful in a division of this race 12 months ago she was recording her seventh win of the year; just one win to her name this time around but she has run several good races, including a close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) four weeks ago; solid claims. |

Successful seven times (including over C&D) in 2025; back to winning ways at Carlisle (1m) in July but she went too freely when ninth of ten in 1m Ayr handicap 13 days ago; she's the sort to bounce back. |

0-11 this year but on a dangerous mark and was a good second over C&D (soft) 12 days ago; soundly beaten third over C&D (soft) one day later but that may have come sooner than ideal; this three-time C&D winner can make a bold bid. |

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

She returned to form when runner-up over C&D (soft) yesterday, a race she finished third in last year before winning a division of this race a day later; has to be taken seriously. |

Maiden win for previous yard but 0-9 for current stable; reacted well to a tongue-tie (retained since) when third in handicap company at Southwell (1m, AW) last month; not in the same form when filling the same position in 1m1f Musselburgh seller since but may still provide the main threat to First Ambition. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Yet to win for this stable but he posted two good runner-up efforts at Pontefract (1m, good) and Hamilton (8.5f, good) in June/July; below that level in both starts since and has a tongue-tie added for his AW debut. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Ripon novice (1m) in 2024 is his only win from 16 races; inconsistent this year but way down the weights and fourth of 19 at Redcar (1m) last time was a reminder that he can be competitive on turf; much more to prove on his slight AW record; hooded first time today. |
