18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to form to make all at 28-1 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago in a reapplied tongue-tie (retained); strong claims up 3lb if he can back up that latest performance. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Record at Redcar comprises his two wins for previous yard and best effort for new stable; York form comprises poor efforts in this race last year and in latest outing; something to prove. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won two in a row at Redcar (1m, good to firm) last spring for George Boughey; now 2lb lower than for his last success but he's been disappointing since including for new yard this spring; this is a big drop back in grade but he reared at the start at York last time and others are more convincing. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row (7f, good to soft/AW) before solid second at Newmarket (1m, good); didn't run badly in mid-division in Class 2 at Epsom (8.5f, good to soft) last time and he could be in the mix back down in grade. |

Acts on soft ground; better than ever this season, winning at Doncaster (good to soft) and following up at Southwell (again 7f, AW); solid second to Sterling Knight (1m, good) last time but he'll need more from the same mark. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Three-time turf winner who won two in a row at Wolverhampton (8.6f/7f, AW) in March and is 1lb below his last winning mark; he ran okay on his final few starts for the Newland/Insole yard but this 8yo needs something extra on today's stable debut, following 8,500gns sale. |
8/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner who scored twice at Wolverhampton (8.6f/7f) in March; hasn't threatened in his last four runs but he was respectable fifth over C&D on Monday; this is a quick turnaround but his last win was off this mark and he could be dangerous if he gets the breaks; cheekpieces reapplied. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Ended his losing run at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March and he did well to follow up over 7f one week later; not quite so good since but he has the ability to go well off this mark; headgear tried last time is now quickly dispensed with. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two wins last summer and he showed spark as recently as this April; he's dropped to a dangerous mark but has failed to shine on his last three outings and arrives with something to prove. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Well treated on the form he showed last August, including win at Haydock and close third at the York Ebor festival; absent since finishing rather tamely over C&D two months ago. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won 1m AW maiden at Dundalk in February but not at the top of his game on final two runs for Jessica Harrington and well beaten at 28-1 on stable debut at York three weeks ago; he may be best watched. |
20/1 |
|
14th 5 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won a 1m AW maiden in Ireland and was close up in a 1m Lingfield handicap three starts ago; however, not so good on his final two runs for Jessica Harrington and sold on for 5,000gns. |
25/1 |

AW winner over 1m, has a bit to find with Akecheta on running at Cork last time; trainer may have a better chance with Diamond Exchange. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
11yo who needs to produce more than he's managed on his last three starts but he's 3lb lower than when a close third at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May and has won at Ripon seven times; went close here in August 2024 when he last wore these blinkers (which replace cheekpieces); not discounted. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner; best form this term when placed a few times in spring, showing that he retains plenty of ability aged 11; gained last win off 7lb higher over C&D and can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Tough front-runner; ran a rare poor race last time but had been in good form prior to that, notably when a close third at Ayr last month (1m, good to firm); major chance. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
In good heart this season and he returned to winning ways over C&D (good) last Monday; a 5lb rise takes this 5yo to a career-high mark but he has a solid record here and could be firmly in the shake-up once more. |
3/1 |

1st 6 (9) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Respectable fifth at Beverley three days ago; largely solid record at Ripon features a success in 2024 and peak effort this season (close second in early June); likely player returned to this course. |
9/2 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Only 3-34; a well-held third behind Travis and Reginald Charles at Redcar where he was beaten by the track bias; off the same mark he should make his presence felt. |
7/1 |
