1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
17-134; had the run of the race when battling on gamely to edge out Polygram and His Finest Hour over C&D (good; 2-1) last month; disappointing at Doncaster (1m2f) and Redcar (1m) since; needs to bounce back. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable veteran who recently completed a hat-trick over 1m2f before disappointing last week at Doncaster; has to bounce back from that, but he should be fine returned to 1m. |

Veteran who is enjoying a fine season and bagged win number five when completing a hat-trick in 1m2f handicap at Ripon 12 days ago; this likeable front runner merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Had cheekpieces on for the first time when winning over 1m at Pontefract in June and went close at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) next time; bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when runner-up there over 1m2f last time and may have a bit more to offer at this trip. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Gained a first win of 2026 at Pontefract (1m) in June but he beat only one in 1m Redcar handicap a week ago; much more is required from this course scorer. |
8/1 |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Clearcut winner in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m, good) in June and probably bettered that form when very close second at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month but was below form after racing too freely over C&D three weeks ago and needs to bounce back with a career best. |

9st 5lb |
Both wins on this track, the latest over C&D off this mark in first-time cheekpieces in June (good); hasn't done as well since, but an interesting contender on a track where his record is 2131. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Game win at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) in June, in first-time cheekpieces; not in the same form since though and stamina not conclusive over 1m2f; better candidates to be found elsewhere. |

10st 0lb |
Five turf wins at around 1m (good/good to firm), the latest off this mark at Leicester in May; not at his best on last two starts but he could go well in a modest event. |
5/1 |

6th 2 (10) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and has continued in good form, refitted in cheekpieces when fourth of seven at Musselburgh (1m) 16 days ago; that form has been franked so he can go well again. |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time winner (8.5f-1m2f) who is often slowly away; ran well when third at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) last time in a race won by a subsequent winner; has since left Iain Jardine having been bought for £5,000; has the hood removed for his stable debut and has stamina to prove. |

Has never won above Class 6 and doesn't look as if he's about to put that right; consistent spell has been terminated by his form taking a dip in last few runs. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
13-race maiden; beaten less than 2l when fourth at Ayr last time (1m2f, good to soft; second run after wind op); fair run in first-time cheekpieces in June and they are tried for the second time; each-way chance. |
8/1 |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden; didn't run badly when sixth over C&D (good to firm; first run after wind op) three weeks ago and continues to slip down the weights, but needs to find something extra today. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

11-race maiden; only one effort of note since joining Jim Goldie but he drops into his first 0-60 having undergone wind surgery since last seen; interesting to see how strong he is in the market. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
10yo who gained the latest of his eight career wins over this C&D (good; wore blinkers) last summer; soundly beaten on both outings this year but has blinkers refitted today and it won't be a shock if he stages a revival. |
14/1 |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

Veteran who has loads of Carlisle form, including six wins; however, has become inconsistent with age and isn't guaranteed to give his running. |
20/1 |

9th 11 (5) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
10yo who has an up-and-down profile last year and this is his first run since September; however, he was a good third over C&D (good) on his reappearance last April and won here (1m1f, good) in July; not ruled out each-way. |

Sits on last winning mark (Ayr, 1m) and has held his form well, finding one stronger in three of his last four, including when picked off inside the final furlong at Doncaster (7f; 11-1) recently; is a modest 1-22 on AW. |

6th 8 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |

Course winner who added to his tally at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May; good runner-up efforts there in recent weeks and has to enter calculations. |
