3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Turned in a career-best effort when winning a 5f handicap at Chester (good to soft) three weeks ago; this is a stiffer test of his credentials. |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who has been running with great credit in useful handicaps this summer, most recently finishing fourth of 19 at York's Ebor meeting (5f, good); unlikely to be far away. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Several good runs for his new yard this year and likely to give his running; surprising if one, or both, of the big two didn't have his measure. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won here (5f, good to firm) in June; ran two fine races at Goodwood's Glorious meeting and again when third behind Air Force One at York last month (travelled best); soft ground wouldn't have been ideal when second of six at Goodwood two weeks ago; drying conditions would be in his favour and he has the ability to get involved. |

9st 11lb |
He has enjoyed more success on AW than turf but has run well in both visits to Ascot, finishing third of 12 four weeks ago; Billy Loughnane booked and he's likely to make a bold bid but he could help tee this up for one of the finishers. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Three front-running AW wins in the spring saw him soar up the handicap; ran right up to his best when second of ten in a Shergar Cup race over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; did best of those drawn in double figures at York 17 days ago and should give another good account. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Versatile ground-wise; particularly effective on downhill tracks and was a ready winner over this C&D in May before having an awkward passage in 6th of 23 at the big meeting here in July; front-running at York didn't come off ten days ago but he has to be of interest on the earlier form. |
11/2 |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Better than ever this year following a gelding operation, winning at Goodwood (5f, good) in May and running with credit at Epsom (the Dash) and Glorious Goodwood since; should give his running but might find one or two better treated today. |

Won at York (5f, good to firm) in July and he was back to form when second on the AW last Saturday; tends to race close to the pace and should make another bold bid with Conor Whiteley claiming a handy 5lb. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Her form can be up and down and she has something to find now up in grade, but she won a handicap by 3l at Catterick (5f, good to firm) last month and her trainer has been a dab hand with female sprinters over the years, so it's possible she will be capable of better still; 2-2 here (6f, good/soft). |
33/1 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
All four wins have been over 6f, the most recent coming on soft ground at Ayr in June; however, she's been held in both starts since and now drops back to 5f; may be high enough in the weights for now. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Group 3 win at Dundalk (only run to date on Polytrack) last October was one of four victories for the year; struggled this season, often being inclined to hang right, and followers will largely be pinning their hopes on the surface switch doing the trick. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

Had a fine year in 2025, winning four times including in Listed and Group 3; not in comparable form in 2026 but he has too much ability to be discounted completely. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Doubled his tally at Redcar (5f) in June but his more recent form is not so encouraging, including a below-par 13th in the Portland at Doncaster (5.5f) last time; needs to get back on track. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won soft-ground maiden in Ireland as a 2yo; winless since but he hasn't been far away in some good 5f handicaps this year, including over this C&D (good to soft) in August; a subsequent defeat at Beverley may have come too soon and he should be competitive in this company; now blinkered. |
9/2 |

8th 4 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

Ex-Irish (one win); has started to threaten for this yard and he wasn't beaten far when fourth of 11 at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) last Friday; dropped a further 2lb and he won't mind what the weather does; considered. |

9st 7lb |
Two 6f wins in 2026, taking advantage of a big weights drop on the AW in August and then by a wide margin at Chester (heavy) last week; back up 9lb and in grade but has to be respected in his current form. |
6/1 |

Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f) in August but saw his run of good form end when beating just two at Doncaster (6f) six days ago; this C&D scorer needs to bounce back. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Made it 2-5 since joining Ruth Carr when justifying favouritism at Ripon (5f, good to firm) last Saturday; a 4lb higher mark will make things harder but he's still well treated on old form. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Capitalised on a reduced mark to make a winning start for Ruth Carr at Thirsk (5f) in August; recorded a solid fifth of 12 in 5f handicap at Beverley ten days ago; very much one to consider off a 2lb lower mark here. |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Won this race in 2024 when rated 8lb higher; well handicapped on even this year's best, 3lb lower than when second in the Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft); stall 1 not ideal for one that comes from off the pace and he will need luck in running; big chance if the gaps appear though. |
5/1 |

6th 10 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
All ten wins at 5f; last scored just over a year ago on good to firm but he's got plenty of form on a softer surface and ran well when runner-up in Epsom's "Dash" in June; also performed with credit at Glorious Goodwood and could be the type to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract a fortnight ago; having just his second outing here since winning a C&D novice back in 2021. |
