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. |

7th 7 (3) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
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. |
9/1 |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

Made all at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last month and bounced back from a disappointing effort when winning over this C&D two weeks ago (again made all); can't be dismissed off this 3lb higher mark at a track which suits. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
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. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Remains a maiden after 14 starts but she's returned from a break in good form this summer, finishing in the first three on her last three starts (6f/7f, good/good to firm; including here); could be thereabouts. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (7) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Exposed maiden but she has run with credit in two 6f handicaps this summer, finishing second of seven at Catterick last week; returning to 7f will be in her favour and she is high on the list. |

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 |
9st 11lb |
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. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Won this race last year and she scored over 5f here (good) last month; can be a bit up and down but she's finished a creditable third in last two runs, including at Catterick (6f, good to firm) on Wednesday; shortlisted. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
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. |
7/1 |

4th 7 (11) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Only 1-25; the blinkers were left off when going close over 6f at Thirsk last week; that was a classified race and he's probably better at 6f than 7f. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (8) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Close second in a Hamilton handicap (6f, good to soft) in June but he's not come close to that form in three subsequent runs; overall record is now 1-24 and he needs to rediscover his spark; blinkers worn in last three starts are removed. |

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 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
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. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time AW scorer who holds weak claims on her two efforts since joining new yard and returned to turf, last of five at Catterick (5f) latest; 0-8 in this sphere; others preferred. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Ex-Jack Jones (bought for 3,600gns in April); all three wins have been on AW; fair run on stable debut when seventh over 6f at Thirsk (good); well drawn and could go well on a rare run at 5f (races mainly at 6f). |
16/1 |
|
7th 4 (11) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Won twice for Jack Jones, both times over 6f at Wolverhampton; hung right and weakened when last in action at Southwell (5f) ten weeks ago; changed hands for 3,600gns since; best watched on stable debut. |
