25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Arrives on a recent high after a win at Musselburgh and a second at Ripon (both 1m, good); should give his running but he's up in grade here. |
12/1 |

2nd 3 (7) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Prevailed narrowly in cheekpieces at Musselburgh (1m, good) last time, registering a first win since 2024; back up 3lb but remains well treated on peak form, which includes a Ripon success; headgear removed; should remain competitive. |

Winless since November 2024 and tried in cheekpieces when a below-par sixth of 12 in 1m Redcar handicap last month; needs to bounce back with headgear retained. |

9st 3lb |
Gained his second win on turf when landing a Doncaster handicap under Elle-May Croot 12 days ago, bouncing back from a lesser effort; can't be dismissed off this 4lb higher mark. |

1-27 on turf; has a chance on his head second at Musselburgh in June (1m, good) but well beaten back on the AW last time. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this season, a Musselburgh handicap in June (good) and last time a C&D classified (good); this is tougher but has an each-way chance. |
6/1 |
|
1st 2 (7) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who tends to start slowly but has respectable recent handicap form at Musselburgh, namely a 1m win and two efforts in the frame; reasonably solid. |
7/2 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Yet to master the start; it was seventh-time lucky over 1m here this month and quickly bounced back from a soft-ground disappointment to be third under same conditions as win last week; extra furlong here gives him more time to catch up; not ruled out. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
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. |
11/2 |

4th 1 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Gained his second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and posted a good third of 12 in 1m Carlisle handicap a week ago; this course winner rates a player off an unchanged mark. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
1-27 on Flat turf, the win coming on soft ground over 1m at Redcar in May 2024 (first-time hood); gave it a good go from the front when runner-up over this C&D last month but she failed to beat a rival home at Ayr (1m2f) two weeks ago; needs to bounce back. |
14/1 |
|
10th 11 (1) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ran well from out of the handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last week, poaching a big lead but reeled in close home; whether she can repeat that form in this bigger field remains to be seen. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winner under both codes in 2024; creditable second over 1m1f at Musselburgh in April but below that level since, including weakening when stepped back up to around 1m4f last time. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to make any further progress since winning 1m Ripon maiden a year ago and has been safely held on all three starts this season; might be aided by new tongue-tie and/or cheekpieces, though. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A fair 1m winner in 2025; yet to beat a rival in a pair of 1m/1m1f handicaps at Ayr this season though so has plenty to prove. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Won three in a row over 1m and 7f at Musselburgh (all on good) last June and July but she wasn't seen after August and two runs this year have been poor; risky. |
33/1 |
|
11th 9 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won three in a row over 1m and 7f at Musselburgh (all on good) last June and July but she wasn't seen after August and finished down the field on her recent reappearance; dropped just 1lb and likely other days. |
40/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
In top form when last seen on the track last summer, completing a course hat-trick (first over C&D); she needs to hit the ground running after ten months off though. |
7/2 |
