8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins in May, each off a mark 2lb lower, took his record over C&D to 3-5; continued in good form since, latterly in cheekpieces (removed on today's drop back in trip), and is one to consider. |
5/1 |

All four wins over 7f, including twice in quick succession over 7f at Catterick (good) in May, but he was second on his previous C&D visit; returned to form when 2l fourth of five at Musselburgh (7f) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) three weeks ago but he remains 4lb above those winning marks. |

Has gained five of his nine wins over C&D, the latest in July (good); freshened up a respectable fourth back here eight days later; won't mind what the ground does. |

Gained five of his nine wins over C&D, the latest eight days ago (good ground); still on workable mark under 4lb penalty and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

9st 8lb |
Has recorded the majority of his wins on Newcastle AW; below par over C&D ten days ago, failing to build on his Hamilton effort; still hasn't scored on turf since 2022. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Handy sort who is 1-1 here and ran well returned to turf when beaten a short head and a neck into third of eight at Hamilton (1m, good) a fortnight ago; ground faster than good probably not ideal, though. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last success was 16 months ago but that was off 6lb higher and he didn't get much luck when fifth at Carlisle in June; could be dangerous back up in trip, but he probably wouldn't want the ground to dry out (most of his wins have been on good or slower). |

Had wind surgery prior to Ayr reappearance effort that seemed to be needed; gained most recent success off 4lb higher over C&D (good to soft) just over a year ago and looks interesting back here. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Four C&D wins (good and good to firm; has won on good to soft), seeing off stablemate Keep Me Stable last month; lesser effort here 18 days ago, though, and will need more today. |
12/1 |

6th 9 (8) |
25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Successful four times over C&D, including in last two starts, beating stablemate Keep Me Stable by 1l latest; this 8yo retains plenty of vitality and is still well handicapped on historical data; beaten in this race for last three years (form figures 002) but warrants respect in current form. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Three Musselburgh wins last year (all on good); hasn't found quite the same form this year, despite placing over C&D (good to soft) in August; disappointed at Musselburgh just five days ago. |
16/1 |

7th 8 (1) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Three course wins last summer, at 1m and 7f (all on good); not in quite the same form this year, despite finishing second of five to stablemate Monhammer over C&D in August, and it would have been encouraging to see her at least repeat that run back here since; has some work to do. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
His losing run goes back all the way to May 2024 and he's regressed this year; however, his recent third here (1m, soft) was a step back in the right direction and this two-time course winner is another 2lb lower today; might be in the shake-up. |

Four-time winner (two here) who is stuck on a losing run and hasn't been in great form this year; merely mid-division in a first-time visor (retained) here yesterday. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Consistent of late and justified favouritism at Musselburgh (1m, good; first two clear) on Monday, ending a three-year losing spell; incurs 5lb penalty but looks likely to remain competitive. |

1st 8 (1) |

Winless since 2yo days; competitive at this sort of level all summer but a couple of costly defeats here latterly (7f) and needs to find more. |

Record is only 1-27 and inconsistency has been the characteristic of her 2026 campaign; sold out of Gary Rutherford's yard for £5,000 since C&D defeat last time; others preferred. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Just a single win to her name but showed more on her first crack at this trip at Ayr a fortnight ago, when going off hard in front and only letting Hostelry past; 4lb better off with that one today and this course should suit her style; player. |

Five-time AW winner but 0-24 on turf; will appreciate this ease in grade but has been out of form since returning from a break in June; needs to turn things around. |

Very rarely goes this far and it's a long time since he won at higher than 0-55 level; always a chance he'll miss the break too and he's some way down the pecking order. |
