2nd 9 (2) |
15th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Gained a first success at Doncaster (6f) in July and added to it over C&D in August; posted another good effort with second of seven in 6f AW handicap at Lingfield 12 days ago; must enter calculations again nudged up 1lb. |

2nd 3 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has been running well on turf since the visor went back on, winning at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in July and at Redcar (6f, good) 12 days ago; up 7lb and makes his Polytrack debut, but this sharp 6f should suit; shortlisted. |

4th 1 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Chelmsford novice (7f, Polytrack) a year ago and has twice gone close in handicaps since returning in March, the latest when beaten a neck at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta; first start since being gelded) 16 days ago; up 2lb but still high on list. |

2nd 3 (2) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Newly gelded; had excuses with one thing and another this year; this mark looks within range and there are positives back on the AW, and under Oisin Murphy, who boasts a decent record for the yard; shortlisted. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has run well over C&D in maiden and novice events but her win came over 5f on Southwell AW and she has yet to cut the mustard in handicaps; her mark is sliding slowly but she needs more for the win. |
16/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

AW winner; below par returned to turf last time but may rebound in this scenario, having finished second in both C&D attempts. |

12th 12 (11) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won seven in a row over 6f on AW at start of this year but has been safely held on all four turf starts (5f-6f) since returning from a break in July; sure to be suited by this return to Tapeta but will needs to be back in prime form to overcome combination of wide draw and current AW mark. |
20/1 |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ended his time with Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole with 6f Haydock success in April; beat only two home for his new yard in 5.5f Doncaster handicap 12 days ago so plenty more is needed. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (8) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 4 |

Signed off for Richard Newland and Jamie Insole with victory in 6f handicap at Haydock in April; up 6lb and needs to hit the ground running for his new handler after an absence. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Couldn't reward market support on his handicap debut at Lingfield (7f) in March but he got the job done dropped to 6f at Southwell (Tapeta) one month later; only midfield at Wolverhampton last month but things didn't go to plan that day and he remains unexposed at this trip. |
11/2 |

6th 10 (10) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Showed improved form when getting off the mark at Southwell (6f, AW) in April; never figured when fifth of nine at Leicester (6f, good) last month; not one to give up on. |
