2nd 2 (3) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Raced mainly on stiff/galloping tracks; largely consistent winning off current mark at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) in April; in the mix, provided he's as effective back on a sharper course. |
6/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways at Beverley (8.5f) in April and has continued in good form, runner-up in 1m Redcar handicap 13 days ago; winner has gone in since so a bold showing is on the cards off an unchanged mark. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
The visor has had a positive effect and he may have bumped into one when a clear second off this mark 11 days ago (Polytrack); goes well here and is one of the likelier winners. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointed on his reappearance in June but he's been running well in three starts since the visor was applied, most recently finishing third of 11 in a 0-75 at Haydock (7f, good) 13 days ago; drops in grade with good claims. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Overall record of 2-40 but he's finished runner-up four times this season including at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) on his penultimate run; remains well treated on old form and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (7) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |

Two wins last season, the second over C&D last August off this mark; runner-up on his last three starts, beaten 1.25l by a previous winner over C&D last time; contender. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Wins have come on turf in the summer and her record on Tapeta would be mixed at best; generally been running consistently of late but over shorter and this is a different test upped from 1m1f. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 3-33 on turf; good third at Doncaster in July (1m, good to firm) but well beaten last time (1m2f, good to firm); lacks consistency. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Sole win was on AW in 2024; well handicapped on his old form but he's been tailed off in two runs for new yard this summer and can only be watched; reapplied visor replaces cheekpieces. |
40/1 |
|
13th 11 (8) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win came over 1m here in 2024; on a useful mark at present but has a question mark about current form, having dropped out on his final start for previous yard and on debut for this one, at Chester 13 days ago. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four C&D wins in 2024 (including a Class 5); unfortunate (hampered) not to justify market support when runner-up to Dinah Myte here in June; excuse - bled from nose - next time; recent Southwell run (fifth) should have him spot on for this. |
9/2 |

5th 3 (13) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
The last four of his five wins were over 1m on Newcastle Tapeta (hampered on sole start here); looked an unlucky loser at Newcastle on penultimate start but bled from the nose when a disappointing favourite there on latest; player if straight back to form. |

Ran well when third of six to Amber Hamur at Hamilton (8.3f, good) last month but two lesser performances have followed and she's now 0-9. |

8th 11 (6) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Eight-race maiden; kept on for third of six at Hamilton (8.3f, good; wore cheekpieces) last month but safely held on AW since; sports first-time blinkers for first attempt at 1m2f; others appeal more. |

Maiden (0-13); with the now-retired Noel Wilson when runner-up at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm; 10-1) in July; ran poorly (last of seven) back there next time; returns to AW for first start for Phil Kirby. |

Losing run is mounting up but he's currently in a consistent vein of form; moved out of Ben Haslam's yard since last run; again has frame possibilities. |

Maiden (0-8); he's failed to beat a rival in his last three starts (6f-7f); will need wind surgery to have had a transformational effect; all equipment is removed. |

Seven-race maiden who has struggled to get competitive off basement marks in handicaps in recent months; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
