25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Made it 3-6 since joining Daragh Bourke when winning at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) ten days ago, when she idled in front and was value for more than the 0.75l winning margin; went close over 16.2f at Newcastle previously; she might still be ahead of the handicapper up 3lb for last time; a first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
5/1 |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and has run well on all three starts since, runner-up over 1m3f and 2m on last two occasions; latest was quite a rare run in cheekpieces; should be bang there. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and ran another sound race when neck second at Carlisle last time (1m3f); fair efforts on previous tries at 2m; one to consider. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Sole success from 29 starts came over C&D last summer; enough good runs this year to bring him into the reckoning in this field. |
14/1 |

4th 7 (9) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Poor strike-rate but there have been several good runs in defeat this year and his record at Hamilton reads -30222; has run well on soft but a slightly quicker surface may be ideal. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won by 3l at Musselburgh (1m5f, good) in July and remains on a handy mark; she's run some good races here but her last four wins have come at Musselburgh and she was well beaten at Hamilton (1m3f, soft) last time. |
25/1 |

6th 2 (3) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
She had been running with credit this season prior to her comfortable win at Musselburgh (1m5f, good); up 6lb but she still has handicapping scope on last year's best; all wins on good ground but appears to handle soft. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Inconsistent maiden but went very close over C&D (heavy) eight days ago, despite briefly coming off a true line; possibilities off same mark, provided she backs up that effort; likely to go up a bit in the weights once reassessed. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 7 (9) |
20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |

Inconsistent maiden who still has no placed form; opposed. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |

Yet to register a victory and she failed to beat a rival in 1m4f handicap at Hamilton last month; hood is reached for now. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Out of form on the Flat in recent weeks; not beaten far when fifth of eight on handicap hurdle debut at Kelso (2m2f, good to firm) eight days ago and remains unexposed over jumps but overall profile is not persuasive. |
20/1 |
|
5th 6 |
16th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Landed a juvenile hurdle at Hexham in June 2024 when trained by Ben Haslam; has been in the doldrums on the Flat for current yard and hard to be confident of improvement now back over hurdles. |
16/1 |
|
8th 10 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Returned to form with a close second in an amateur jockeys' handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last month but she's been back in the doldrums since; has plenty to prove again and her sole Flat win was in 2024. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice in June, over C&D on the first occasion; close second over 1m4f here three weeks ago but couldn't land a telling blow when fourth over C&D last week; minor money perhaps his best hope this time. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D and at Musselburgh in June; flopped in his next two runs, but he's got back on track since then and was only narrowly denied by a subsequent winner here (1m4f) two weeks ago; that was a brave effort under a prominent ride and he's a key player back in trip. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (8) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice in June, here over 1m2f and over this trip at Musselburgh; put two lesser runs behind him when second at the latter track (1m5f, good) in July but found the drop back to 1m1f against him there four weeks ago; steps back up in trip with claims. |
