4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) in June and gained his fourth success when landing a 2m1f handicap in first-time cheekpieces (discarded today) last month on his final start for Brian Ellison; 3lb higher on this stable debut and he's won his only previous start on the AW. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) in June when back from a break; unplaced at odds-on over hurdles next time and also below par when back on the Flat at York (2m, good to firm) most recently; however, the first-time cheekpieces could give him a lift and there can be optimism that this trip will be within range; trainer won this last year; in calculations. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Four months off before winning a six-runner race at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) early last month; disappointing in a maiden hurdle (fourth at 10-11) 12 days later but remember also that he raised his game markedly when upped to 1m6f on Flat last autumn; this first 2m Flat assignment is interesting. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
Added to his Musselburgh win last spring when scoring at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in May; mixed results in four subsequent runs but he didn't get the breaks when fifth at Southwell last time; that was an eye-catching effort and he could be dangerous back on turf. |
15/2 |

5th 7 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins, including one over this C&D in May off a 5lb lower mark than today's; respectable effort when fourth behind younger rivals over 1m6f at Southwell ten days ago and won't mind this drop back in trip; could go well. |
10/1 |

27th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Resumed winning ways over 1m3f here in May; turned in a rare poor run with eighth of 12 in 1m4f handicap at Newcastle last time; the sort to bounce back, though. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Plenty of minor honours this term, mostly at 1m4f; one 1m6f attempt casts doubt on him over this new trip and it's hard to ignore that this is his 31st attempt to get off the mark. |
5/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Largely running well this season but only eighth of 12 in 1m4f Newcastle handicap last month; more is needed if he's to gain a first win at the 30th attempt. |
10/1 |
|
8th 9 (2) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
28-race maiden but he has been running with credit, finishing in the frame on his last eight starts; acts on AW and he makes more appeal than some. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Usually claimer ridden; all three wins came in just over a month last term but she's consistent (three seconds this season) and should be on the premises. |
11/2 |
|
4th 7 (1) |
25th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; couldn't pose a serious threat at Ayr last week but that was a Class 4 event and she finished second at Redcar (1m2f) in her two previous runs; still looks on workable mark and has possibilities on this drop back in grade. |
4/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; her last win was 12 months ago but she's finished runner-up in three of her last four starts including at Redcar (1m2f, good) last week; only 1lb higher from out of the weights here and she should give it another good shot. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last two wins were over 2m and back in early 2024; comfortably held on the Flat and over hurdles in his last four starts; others are preferred. |
12/1 |
|
7th 3 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Ran well for a long way when third of seven on latest hurdling start, at Doncaster (2m, soft) in February, and will be fine on the faster ground here but recent Flat form has been underwhelming; others appeal more. |
