2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Has enjoyed a terrific season, including four handicap wins on good/good to firm; last week's second on unfavourable terms in a Beverley conditions race was a career-best RPR; course winner; has to enter calculations. |
20/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Ran well for third behind Jm Jungle in a Listed race here last month but he is 3lb worse off today and has since finished down the field in the Portland. |
8/1 |
|
17th 4 (22) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
As good as ever as a 9yo, recording four wins this year and running with credit in Listed event at Beverley (5f, heavy) 13 days ago; should run his race but there are likely to be better handicapped opponents today. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Turned in a career-best effort when winning a 5f handicap at Chester (good to soft) three weeks ago; this is a stiffer test of his credentials. |
25/1 |
|
1st 2 (7) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who has been running with great credit in useful handicaps this summer, most recently finishing fourth of 19 at York's Ebor meeting (5f, good); unlikely to be far away. |
4/1 |
|
4th 4 (11) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Front-runner who was sixth of 18 to Naana's Shadow at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good to firm) and has been placed at Pontefract either side of that (5f, good to firm; most recently on Sunday); back into a more competitive race today but this track should suit his style and he has an each-way chance. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won soft-ground maiden in Ireland as a 2yo; winless since but he hasn't been far away in some good 5f handicaps this year, including over this C&D (good to soft) in August; a subsequent defeat at Beverley may have come too soon and he should be competitive in this company; now blinkered. |
9/2 |
|
8th 4 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Ex-Irish (one win); has started to threaten for this yard and he wasn't beaten far when fourth of 11 at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) last Friday; dropped a further 2lb and he won't mind what the weather does; considered. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (13) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo; has steadily found his form for current yard and wasn't disgraced at a higher level last time at Ascot; could go well as he handles any conditions. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Has done well since the blinkers went on but appears to have no margin for error off this mark, 2lb above his win in May; behind two of these here last time. |
6/1 |
|
5th 7 (9) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Back in form since fitted with blinkers, scoring over C&D (good) in May; has reached the frame on all three outings since, although latest fourth of seven at Pontefract was no more than respectable. |
11/1 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Took this prize in 2024; back in fine form of late since fitted with blinkers, scoring at Hamilton (5f) in May and in the frame in big-field 5f handicaps at Thirsk and Newcastle since; ought to be thereabouts. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Gained a first win of 2026 at Ripon (5f) in July but failed to beat a rival at Pontefract (5f) or Ripon (6f) on his last two outings; not easy to make a case for. |
33/1 |
|
10th 4 (8) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Maintained unbeaten Ripon record (3-3; all 5f) when seeing off Rock Of England and Mark's Choice in early July; ran respectably in Class 2 at Goodwood (5f) before toiling at Pontefract; fairly treated but effectiveness over 6f is questionable. |
16/1 |
|
8th 8 (7) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Soundly beaten over C&D (good to firm) two runs ago but prior to that he won at Ripon (5f, good), and he posted a respectable effort at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last time; he's won here four times; not ruled out. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Gained a third success of 2026 at Beverley (5f) in July; runner-up in Great St Wilfrid over this C&D last month and posted another very good effort with fifth of 23 in the Silver Cup at Ayr (6f) one week ago; well in the mix eased 1lb. |
9/1 |
|
5th 10 (12) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runs; all five wins at 5f, including on heavy; useful 6f form when runner-up in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last month, albeit helped by racing against the stands' rail; dropped right out in the Portland at Doncaster since and this is also highly competitive; yard has won two of the last seven runnings. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Notched a pair of 5f Pontefract handicaps in midsummer; not so good since but he was badly hampered last 1f when seventh of 11 over C&D last time; no forlorn hope off a slipping mark. |
25/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a pair of 5f Pontefract handicaps this summer but he's been well below par there and at Thirsk (5f) since; needs to bounce back. |
16/1 |
|
7th 7 (6) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beat the same horse in bagging two Class 5s at Pontefract (both by a length) but he trailed home last there four weeks ago in a Class 3; might be high in the weights now. |
