6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
The oldest contender in this field but he's still quite useful and prevailed at Redcar (6f) most recently; record in this race includes a success in 2023 (off 6lb higher) and 1l third in 2025; may remain competitive. |
10/1 |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Getting on for four years since he last contested a Class 4 handicap; in better form than his figures suggest, having nowhere to go at a crucial stage at Windsor two weeks ago, and he is one to take seriously. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Beaten on his last 20 starts going back to June 2023 but he's shown promise in fifth this spring on his first two starts for this yard, most recently behind a couple of these in a big field at York (6f, good); he continues to edge down the weights and might not be far away. |
10/1 |

5th 14 (1) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Beaten on his last 19 starts going back to June 2023 but, following a wind op, he was an encouraging fifth off his reduced mark behind Strike Red on last month's stable and seasonal debut at Leicester (6f, good to firm), where he was short of room late on; could build on that with a big run today. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Easily beat his main market rival (subsequent winner) on AW debut here last autumn; inclined to pull hard and said to have hung left when well beaten at a short price on his 7f Kempton comeback; will be happier back sprinting on his turf debut. |
5/1 |
|
6th 3 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Beat only three rivals at Lingfield (6f, AW) in sole 2yo outing but had them well strung out and registered an emphatic success from the front, looking a useful prospect; likely to stay 7f; commands respect. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Below par last time but consistent otherwise of late and may well rebound, especially back at Pontefract; form here features two wins in 2025 and a close second this spring. |
6/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Closed out last season with a pair of soft-ground wins and has resumed in good form off his revised mark, latterly when having two of these behind at Chester last weekend; adaptable as regards ground and tactics, and can't be discounted. |

9st 2lb |
Yet to win a handicap and he finished down the field on his seasonal return at Southwell in February; down in the weights but he has more to prove than many of these. |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last two starts, rallying both times; on a two-year losing spell but remain 7lb below last winning mark; enters calculations. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Winless in two years but has slid to a handy mark and resumed in decent form; holds each-way claims but this is a stronger race than the Thirsk handicap in which he was a bit unlucky not to finish closer last time. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
His six successes include four last season; his second at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in May shows he retains all his ability and two lesser efforts since have resulted in him dropping to 1lb below his last winning mark; has done most of his winning over 6f but scored over 7f in 2024. |
20/1 |
|
7th 13 (6) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
His six successes include four last season; retains all his ability but he's still above his last winning mark and he was only eighth at York last Saturday. |
