28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has progressed well with blinkers since his latest C&D win in April (good), scoring at Kelso and Perth (both over 2m on good) and finishing good second off a pound lower than today at Cartmel last month; chance. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Resurgent 10yo who led close home at Perth (2m, good) last month and has now won three times since April; unlucky to come to grief when back at Perth last week and remains of strong interest, albeit he was well beaten over C&D on his only previous start here. |

11st 1lb |
Off the mark for this yard off a 6lb lower mark at Hexham in May (2m, good); not disgraced when third stepped up to 2m4f next time; a possible. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
The booking of Patrick Mullins was a likely factor in him going off 6-4f last time at Hexham where he raced freely and didn't last home over 2m4f; had made steady progress for this yard and, back over shorter with Joshua Thompson taking off 5lb, he should be involved. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Dual Flat winner for Charlie Johnston (8.5f-12.5f); yet to score over hurdles (0-7) but doesn't have a massive amount to find with Lets Mingle and Summergrounds based on their recent C&D clash; the task isn't an impossible one. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Former smart Flat horse who is 0-6 over hurdles and was beaten a little under 10l on handicap debut here a month ago; he was boxing on over 2m and this longer trip could bring him on (stayed well on the Flat). |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Poor strike-rate (1-37), finishing down the field at Ripon (1m2f; 25-1) a fortnight ago; nothing special over hurdles either (0-5; beaten 34l at Market Rasen in April), so difficult to consider. |
40/1 |

15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Poor strike-rate but he arrives after a creditable third at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month; likely one or two will have his measure today. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Cork juvenile hurdle second last November (2m1f, yielding to soft) but last home whenever completing for current yard, faring no better after wind surgery; needs to have derived benefit from five-month break. |
33/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Juvenile hurdler who was runner-up in her final start in Ireland in November but she's struggled in both runs for current yard and latest was on handicap debut at Exeter (2m2f, good to soft); still early days but she needs a transformation at this new trip. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Returned to form with a close second in an amateur jockeys' handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) last month but she's been back in the doldrums since; has plenty to prove again and her sole Flat win was in 2024. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Sole Flat win came at Redcar in May 2024; was out of the handicap when running well to finish second in similar event at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) under Kayla Ruddy last month; hasn't matched that in two subsequent starts but the return to this sphere may help; not discounted. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Better known as a chaser now and has not really been firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in April; not yet proven over this far and needs to be perked up by this switch back to hurdling; usually avoids ground slower than good. |
20/1 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Triple hurdle winner who is 0-8 over fences but he's on a dangerous mark and wasn't beaten far when third at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) on penultimate run; has possibilities if he can get back near that level and yard is in good form; wore blinkers last time but regular cheekpieces now return. |

10st 4lb |
Latest of his two wins was in 2021; runner-up over hurdles last May but very opposable on what he's done since; off 260 days before latest start when he was remote at 200-1; first-time headgear this evening. |
