8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat scorer for Ben Brookhouse last summer; only eighth in 2m Newbury maiden on his hurdling debut in December but returns to this sphere having been in good form on the Flat; not out of things. |
9/1 |

Perhaps best over further but he was only nabbed late on over C&D last week and, although 1lb higher, Toby Moore rides him for the first time claiming 7lb; can be inconsistent but he's run three excellent races in defeat around here; solid chance. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Made all at Ripon (1m4f, good) in May on stable debut and he's been a good second on two of his three starts since (1m4f, good/good to firm), including here; didn't convince with his stamina for 2m back in January 2025 but a staying trip is worth another go and he's a major player if seeing it out. |
5/4 |

2nd 2 (2) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who has done all his winning at Newcastle (AW) and Ripon, most recently in May on debut for new stable; has remained in form; should take well to Catterick, given his style of racing; possibilities. |

16th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 140y |
11st 11lb |
A wide-margin Flat winner here in 2025 got off the mark over hurdles on return at Cork last time, still showing greenness; a 13lb hike is plenty but has to be considered with more to come. |
3/1 |
|
1st 11 |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
10st 10lb |
Record of 1-22 on the Flat, winning good-ground 1m4f Tramore handicap last summer; four maiden hurdle runs have offered little but they were all on heavy ground so possibility of improvement on handicap debut here back on good ground. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He's put it together on his last two starts, a solid third on handicap debut at Southwell (1m3f) followed by narrow win at Wolverhampton (1m4f, also AW) 12 days ago; 5lb rise for that head success could be considered punchy but he's unexposed and likely capable of better again. |
5/2 |

1st 8 (4) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Four-race maiden but showed improvement on his AW/handicap debut up in trip when third of 14 at Southwell (1m3f) three weeks ago; up 2lb with the promise of more to come. |

2nd 8 (3) |
23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Gained breakthrough win at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month, having swapped blinkers for first-time hood, and also ran well when second at Thirsk (1m4f, good to soft) 18 days ago, where taking the scenic route in pursuit on some better ground didn't pay dividends; also suited by Polytrack and probably still has a bigger run in him. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 6 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made the breakthrough at the eighth attempt when bouncing back with an emphatic win at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm; first-time hood) last month; hasn't looked entirely straightforward but that was a clear personal best last time and he remains feasibly treated off his revised mark; respected. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
1m juvenile winner for Adrian Keatley; took a solid step forward on second start for this yard when fifth of 14 here (1m, good to firm) one month ago; one previous go at this trip was disappointing but pedigree suggests that shouldn't be held against him. |
14/1 |
|
5th 11 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Unexposed after only five starts but finished well down the field when 66-1 for seasonal/stable debut at Haydock (1m, good) three months ago; not seen since; considered only if much stronger in the betting here. |
33/1 |
