9th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |

Beat some of these over C&D last month (good) and couldn't get involved from off the pace at Ripon (soft) nine days ago; could be given another chance. |

6th 4 (9) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft; all five wins have been on turf and he's scored three times since May including at Redcar (1m2f, good) last Saturday; that was a narrow success but he's only 2lb higher and he has won at Ripon in the past; key player. |

Recorded his second win over C&D (good to firm) in May and followed up at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) the following month; has been in a battle with the handicapper since and probably needs to come down a few pounds. |

He's not consistent but he won over C&D last November and ran really well when second of 18 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago; major player if he's once more on song. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A win and two places from four 7f runs here; the step up to 1m in cheekpieces has opened new doors of late, keeping on well into third of 17 at Doncaster before delivered late to win at Ayr; was quite impressive for his win here last September and he can do better back on this surface. |

Campaigned mainly over 6f/7f but looked suited by step up to 1m when keeping-on third of 18 at Doncaster (good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) three weeks ago; could still have more to offer over this trip; high on the list. |

1st 3 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

2nd 6 (12) |

Getting on for two years since his last win but this C&D winner has dropped to a tempting mark and he didn't run badly in a stronger race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) six weeks ago; apprentice takes off a handy 5lb too; high on the list. |

22-race maiden but he has finished in the first three on seven occasions; however, he was down the field at Wolverhampton on his yard debut three weeks ago and needs to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces. |

Not the force of old but gained his fifth success, at Kempton (1m, AW) in May; beaten 4l at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last month in an 18-runner contest but this smaller field should play to his strengths (all five wins have been in races with less than ten runners). |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Has a patchy profile and he's been well in last two runs (1m2f), but both wins have been at this trip and latest was over C&D (good) in June; has claims if he can recapture that form and he's in this mix on this drop back in trip and grade; cheekpieces added. |

A repeat of the form of either May's Doncaster 7f win (good to soft) or last September's second over today's C&D (soft) would see him go close; over four years now since his sole win on fast turf, however. |

Close third over C&D (good to firm) early last month and that performance puts him in the mix, but he's been inconsistent this year and was only fifth of six behind Clipsham Noble over C&D (good to firm) last time; the cheekpieces adopted on that latest start are left off. |

Sole win from 12 starts came in a 1m Lingfield maiden last August when trained by the Crisfords; has dropped a fair way in the weights since joining this yard and he ran well when third over this C&D 18 days ago on first try over this far; can go well again with cheekpieces now added. |
