5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Front-running wins at Thirsk and Catterick (both 6f on good to firm) this summer; ran well for second at Catterick six weeks ago but other pace and a wide stall dent confidence this time. |
16/1 |

2nd 3 (5) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-running wins at Thirsk and over this C&D in July (both on good to firm), the most recent coming off a 3lb lower mark than today's; below his best here on his last two starts but is worth forgiving for the latest effort, having come across to the near side rail; may be able to bounce back. |

Front-running wins at Thirsk and over C&D last month; only fourth behind Miss Rainbow here 13 days ago but he used up a lot of energy getting to the front from the widest stall; better drawn today and he should have a big run in him. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
16-race maiden but she went close in C&D handicap (good to firm) in July; return to AW didn't go well, when stuck behind some rivals and last at Newcastle (6f) last month; no surprise if she fares better this time. |
10/1 |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

15-race maiden; in fair form on turf this summer, placed over 6f twice before fair 7f efforts on her last starts; the return to 6f won't hurt and she did run well on AW once when trained in Ireland. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Prominent-racer who likes it here, winning for Connor Beasley over C&D last month off 4lb lower from stall 1; always wide from stall 9 behind Daytona Lady last time and that's best ignored but there's not much wiggle room off this mark. |
8/1 |

8th 4 (9) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins this summer, the latest over C&D 13 days ago when having a bit to spare; a 4lb higher mark may prove less of a hindrance than the widest stall. |
9/2 |

1st 2 (1) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

Often front-runner; course winner over 7f last June and gained her fifth success when winning at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) five starts ago; behind Barmyblade when third over this C&D before a lesser effort at Thirsk 11 days ago; could bounce back in this lower grade. |

Won 6f Hamilton handicap last May; fairly close fourth on his last three starts, including a course classified last month and handicap (again 7f) three weeks ago. |

|
4th 11 (11) |
8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Any number of defeats at short prices to go with a single win; blown plenty of easier openings this year, often in sprints, and again looked to have no excuses from the same stall in a C&D 0-50 classified event last time. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (11) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

1-26, the win coming in a handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) last May; close third in a classified event at Thirsk two starts ago before a solid effort in a Beverley handicap (7.5f, good to firm) last time; drops back into a classified with good claims. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Close up in 7f events as a 3yo but she hasn't been her old self at 7f and 6f this year, in different headgear in two of her last three starts (none today); looks unlikely for now. |
20/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
4yo maiden who has raced mainly at further; two duck eggs this term leave a doubt over current form; chance of revival depends on the effects of this belated return to sprinting, combined with first-time visor. |
13/2 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Below best at the end of last season and also well held on 7f Catterick reappearance, taking her record to 0-13; a subsequent wind operation needs to have had a positive effect. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Seven of his eight wins have been on the AW, the most recent coming at Newcastle (6f; first-time tongue-tie) in February; well beaten on his last three starts but he did have an excuse here two weeks ago (blindfold was removed late). |
33/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time AW winner who is 1-7 on turf; paid for setting a strong pace when returned to this sphere last time but ended up achieving nothing in terms of form and he has become inconsistent. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (1) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time tongue-tie when causing 28-1 surprise on AW in February (6f) but absent since running as though something was amiss the following month and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon; not the percentage call on first turf start since summer 2024. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
6lb lower than when winning a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton (for Jack Jones) in February; 25-1 when no match for Yaahobby over C&D last week; due to be 3lb lower from the weekend. |
33/1 |
|
7th 5 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Can't fancy on her three turf efforts since joining current stable but the fact she's gained all three wins on AW provides some hope back from two months off. |
25/1 |
