28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ex-French; didn't get the best of runs when pipped by Seven Questions here in May and overcame some bother in running to go one better at Doncaster last time (5f, good to firm); 4lb rise is fair and this sort of race should suit his style. |
20/1 |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
0-10 since arriving from France but twice finished runner-up in the spring (5f, good) and he was a close fifth in a tight finish at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) last week; might not be far away. |
4/1 |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Runner-up on two of his starts this spring (both 5f, good) and he was contesting the competitive Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft) when mid-division last time; this isn't so hot and he could be in the mix. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent mare in a good run of form and from off the pace she was only a length behind Managing Director in a big field at York last time (5f); solid chance. |
13/2 |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Tough cookie who arrives in peak form after a close third over C&D two weeks ago; one of three with serious claims for her local yard. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 8 (1) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Ready win in a Class 5 at Thirsk last month; similar form when second in a Class 3 at Doncaster last week; she will need more to come out on top today but she's arriving in top form. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's just 1-25 on turf but was runner-up over C&D (good to firm) last month and wasn't beaten far in a competitive Class 2 at favourite course Newcastle (5f, AW) last Friday; could be in the mix. |
7/2 |

7th 14 (9) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won this race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark and recorded his seventh C&D win when scoring in December; solid second on turf three weeks ago; should run his race. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won six 5f handicaps on AW at Newcastle in 2025; now back on last winning mark but he's 1-24 on turf and that success was in a novice over four years ago; looks opposable back in this sphere after a short break. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Another who has a better strike-rate on AW (7-19) than on turf (1-17); patchy form so far this year, but has dropped 3lb below his last winning mark and this is a drop in class; stable also runs Thunderstorm Katie. |
7/1 |

8th 7 (2) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Another who has a better strike-rate on AW than turf; not beaten far into fourth in a 5f handicap at Doncaster 17 days ago, a race where he fluffed the start; yet to shine at Ayr; one of three runners for Jim Goldie. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Haydock (7f, good to firm) last May and at Newcastle (5f, AW) in November but he's a more reliable proposition on AW, on which he's 7-19 as opposed to 1-15 on turf; not at the top of his game on grass of late. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Right behind Accrual here before justifying favouritism at Nottingham (5f) three days ago despite an awkward start; the penalty might just find him out. |
3/1 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ultra-consistent and arrives following a solid effort at Thirsk (same mark as tonight; his last winning rating); boasts a good record at this time of year and this is less competitive, so his claims are obvious. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 2 (11) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Successful off this mark at Wolverhampton in March; solid efforts on his last three starts and he should make a bold bid to win this race for the second season in succession. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
9yo who has dropped down the weights and showed spark when second of four at Nottingham last month; however, well beaten at Thirsk since and he's winless on turf since September 2021; others appeal more. |
50/1 |
|
12th 9 (5) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Talented veteran but has temperament to match his ability; no turf win since 2021 and when second at Nottingham 11 days ago there were only four runners; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winless on turf since 2021 but showed more on his second run back from a break last time, is now 2lb lower and this is easier than the handicaps he's used to contesting; tends to be held up and a speed-favouring 5f in a small field may not be optimal but he's capable. |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Placed just once in eight starts since returning for this yard in April, but has been contesting much warmer handicaps than this on turf; won on Tapeta for previous yard and worth a second look down at this level. |
6/1 |

8th 12 (9) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |

Course winner who should be well handicapped now but stall 9 won't make life easy. |
