2nd 4 (13) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 18 starts came on his debut in a 5f maiden on soft ground in May 2024 but he has posted some good efforts since; midfield finishes in three starts this year, including when drawn wide at York over 7f on his last two outings; drops back in trip and down in grade with the visor returning. |
7/1 |

9st 1lb |
Beaten 16 times since his winning 2yo debut but there have been several good runs along the way; two midfield finishes in good handicaps this summer; edging down the weights and he should be popping up soon. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Has been in good form in 6f handicaps this season, including second over C&D in April (good to soft) and third at Carlisle in May (good to firm); won his first race on turf when prevailing at Newbury last week (good to soft); has a penalty but sound chance. |

A Southwell maiden win last summer remains his only success after 15 attempts but he has run good races in defeat in all three starts this year; conditions should suit well and he is more appealing than most. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner over 6f (good/good to soft), the most recent coming at Doncaster last summer off a 3lb lower mark; fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup in September (soft) and he ran well when second of 17 there last month; has to be respected. |
6/1 |

2nd 1 (14) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Fifth over C&D (soft) in Bronze Cup in September and filled same position in 19-runner Doncaster handicap (6f, good to soft) on reappearance in March; slightly disappointing on good to firm ground last time but conditions ought to be suitable for him today; one to consider. |

Back on last winning mark but is by no means certain to take advantage, having finished last of nine at Doncaster on seasonal debut; admittedly may fare better with that outing under his belt. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |

Won over 6f at Haydock in May 2025 (good) and a couple of fair runs over 7f after that; acts on fast ground but he lacks a recent run (has been off since October). |

Veteran who still retains most of his ability and gave a good account when keeping-on second of 21 at York (6f, good) last month; still only 1lb higher than for C&D (heavy) win in October and will be favoured by any rain. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won his first two starts (6f, good and soft); generally struggled since but his reappearance third at Pontefract (only run in cheekpieces) was a promising effort; sold for 58,000gns since latest; starts out for David Loughnane off a reduced mark; worth a market check. |

Won last June on first two starts (6f, good/soft) and encouraging third in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (6f, good) on his reappearance; soundly beaten over 7f at Goodwood since when minus the cheekpieces (same today) and, while the drop back to 6f could help, others are more compelling. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
All four wins have been on the AW; ran an encouraging race when fourth of eight on his stable debut at Newbury (6f, good to soft) in June but he wasn't able to build on that when dropped back to 5f at Newmarket (good to firm) last month; back up in trip. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Better known for AW exploits and has had few chances on turf, running his best race in this sphere when fourth of eight at Newbury (6f, good to soft; stable debut after 223 days off) four weeks ago; potentially well treated and he's interesting with that run behind him. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |

Not the force of old but handicapped accordingly; only seen once since February and he didn't offer a great deal; usually held up so he will need plenty of luck in running from the inside stall. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |

Long time since he won on turf and isn't as good now but remains consistent; returns from three months off but he can go well fresh; down to a career-low mark but he'd have preferred plenty of rain. |

In good form on the AW this year including two wins over 6f; 0-12 on turf, but has gone close on a couple of occasions and should have no problem with this sharp 7f; player. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Impressive in this race in 2024 when rated 3lb higher; mixed bag this summer but his two best turf runs have come over C&D and this represents an ease in grade; can't rule out. |

4th 7 (5) |

C&D winner who won two in a row at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and was a close third over C&D (good) in May; he's dropped back down to a handy mark but has finished down the field on his last three outings. |

His wins have come on slow ground but he was beaten only 3l in a big field at York (7f, good to firm) last month; that was a creditable effort after a slow start and he ran well over this trip at Ayr on his penultimate run; could be dangerous. |

Plenty of racing last year, when finishing well held in two runs on Tapeta; offered a bit more on latest start but still has stamina to prove, having just a second go beyond 6f, and this race is more competitive. |
