8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
This year's wins at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) and Thirsk (1m4f, good) were from the front; last two defeats suggest his progress may have levelled out, for all that he was tried over 1m6f both times; probably needs his best yet. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won from the front in handicaps at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April and Thirsk (1m4f, good) in June; only third when 8-13 for a four-runner race at Sandown (upped to 1m6f, good) on latest outing but he was close up and that represented further progress in form terms; a more strongly run race at the trip would probably suit him. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Back on the up with a second all-the-way win of the year at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last Friday; has a likeable way of going about things and this longer trip could suit him even better; leading claims under a 6lb penalty. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
In good form on AW in the spring and she won at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in April; beaten 14l on turf in June and 23l on her return to AW three weeks ago, however; needs to get back on track but that's not beyond the realms. |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Beat Crown Inn To Win over C&D in April and was second to that horse on her return visit, after which she was again runner-up back here; Thirsk was disappointing but could bounce back from that. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (6) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Productive on AW this spring (form figures 3122); career best when runner-up to the progressive Kakirra (won twice since) at Wolverhampton (1m4f; from 2lb lower) four weeks ago; needs to prove herself conclusively on turf but this sharp left-handed track looks suitable. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Placed in a Redcar novice (1m, good; 16-1) last October but has gone backwards since introduced to a tongue-tie and sent handicapping; 2lb lower than when sixth of nine at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) latest; new trip. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Steady improvement at two; only 9-2 for handicap debut at Redcar (1m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) but she was in trouble a good way out. |
6/1 |

7th 6 (2) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Steady improvement across her three 2yo starts, all here, finishing third in a C&D novice (good) last October when last seen; begins handicap life on a fair mark and in a first-time tongue-tie; not discounted. |

He has been beaten increasingly big margins in three handicaps; new cheekpieces have some work to do. |

27th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Only modest form shown as 2yo and has been well held in a pair of handicaps here (1m3f) and at Thirsk (1m4f) this season, racing freely each time; others appeal more. |
50/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Initial promise when a never-nearer fourth to Myrrh at Hamilton (8.5f, soft) last September; gelded over the winter and struggled to get competitive on handicap debut at Southwell (1m3f, AW; 40-1) five weeks ago, beaten over 15l; others are more obvious candidates. |

Did well last season at about 1m but yet to get overly competitive in four handicaps, from 1m2f to 1m4f; perhaps this drop in trip can halt the slide. |

8th 7 (9) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Low-mileage filly; needs to prove her wellbeing after weakening quickly at Thirsk a fortnight ago but is now 6lb lower than when placed on seasonal debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) in April, and won't be bothered by the forecast rain (gained her 2yo win on soft ground). |
6/1 |

6th 2 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Carried persistently left when awarded the race at Hamilton (8.5f, maiden) last September; twice placed since, including when third on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) in April; latest Redcar fourth was broadly similar on RPRs; new trip but considered. |
