3rd May 2022 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Modest turf strike-rate (1-17; at Beverley in September) compared to his record on the AW but he wasn't far away at Pontefract 22 days ago (1m, good to soft) and this faster ground will suit; on the premises. |

2nd Nov 2021 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Better than ever in September, opening his account at Carlisle (1m) then good second at Beverley; likely player if transferring that form back to AW. |
6/1 |
8 (14) |
11th Oct 2021 Soft 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
In career-best form last month, opening his account at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) then good second at Beverley (8.5f); may improve further; enters calculations. |
|
2nd 10 (2) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Bar a soft-ground blip he's been in fine form in recent months and won at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) 13 days ago; that was a first win at the 14th attempt but he's progressive and has to be respected up 5lb. |

1st Nov 2021 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not at her best last time but she's on a dangerous mark and her penultimate third at Beverley wasn't too bad; she has run well over C&D in the past and shouldn't be discounted lightly. |
11/2 |
5th 2 (11) |
16th Oct 2021 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed at Beverley on latest start of a light 2021 campaign on turf; scored off this mark over C&D last season and has possibilities back here. |
9/1 |
3rd 11 (13) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Hasn't threatened on either run this year but she may work her way back into form and the handicapper has given her a chance; not discounted. |

AW and multiple turf winner for Richard Fahey but not scored for over two years; slipped to a handy mark, not disgraced of late and each-way claims returned to AW. |
7/1 |
4th 13 (15) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Close third off this reduced mark behind Mikmak over C&D (good) two starts ago; in the mix if reproducing that form today but has been inconsistent this year and was soundly beaten at Hamilton last time. |

21st Feb 2022 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has form figures of 22113 for his new yard this winter and his latest front-running third at Kempton was behind a highly progressive subsequent winner; still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form and he's respected back at 6f. |
4/1 |
3rd 7 (1) |
5th Feb 2022 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
In very good form for new stable this winter and has made all over 7f at Wolverhampton in his last two starts; only 1lb higher than for his brave win two weeks ago and a major player again back on Polytrack. |
6/4 |
2 (6) |
24th Jan 2022 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
In very good form for new stable in recent weeks and has won his last two over 7f here, more recently when holding on well to make all on Saturday; 5lb penalty demands career-best performance today, though, and he needs to prove he's fully effective over this longer trip. |

8th Oct 2021 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Inconsistent maiden who turned in a creditable effort with headgear left off at Beverley (soft) last month; long way below that level in visor last time; no headgear again but enough to prove on AW debut. |
12/1 |
6th 15 (14) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Inconsistent 11-race maiden who needs to back up last Wednesday's C&D second (soft) with another good run, but has obvious claims if he can; also effective on good ground; wears a first-time visor. |

22nd Oct 2021 Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Inconsistent across his winless, nine-race career but went close at Beverley (1m, good) in August and bounced back to form when runner-up to Sagauteur at Redcar (1m2f, good) last time; unraced on slow ground; can be thereabouts if again on a going day. |
12/1 |
2nd 12 (5) |
2nd Oct 2021 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Improved form when going close at Beverley in August (1m, good) but he didn't find much back at 1m2f on Newcastle AW next time and another lesser effort followed, behind Broctune Red back at Beverley (1m; first-time tongue-tie, discarded); work to do. |
16/1 |
8th 3 (16) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Soundly beaten in midfield when back up to 1m2f at Newcastle (AW) latest but was previously runner-up over this C&D (good), and this unexposed 4yo could have a part to play now back down in trip in a first-time tongue-tie. |

22nd Mar 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Hasn't won on the Flat since 2019 and he's 0-15 over hurdles, but he wasn't disgraced when fifth of eight at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft; Robeam held in seventh) last time and he can't be totally dismissed from a falling mark. |
9/1 |
5th 7 |
6th Mar 2022 Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |

Hasn't won on the Flat since 2019 and he's 0-14 over hurdles, most recently fourth over C&D on second start for new yard; however, can't be totally dismissed off this reduced mark. |

9st 0lb |
Won twice in August (1m, soft/good) and ran okay at Pontefract (1m, soft) last time; however, this is a rare encounter with 1m2f and it remains to be seen if he's effective at this trip nowadays. |
20/1 |
3rd 9 (6) |
4th Oct 2021 Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Came from the back to win over C&D (soft) and at Beverley (8.4f, good) in August but well below form in his last two starts and latest was back at Beverley; bit to prove again and needs to rediscover his spark. |
12/1 |
10th 1 (6) |
21st Sep 2021 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Came from the back to win last month at Pontefract (1m, soft) and over this C&D (good), and nippy Musselburgh may not have suited when below par last time; could go well now back here. |

2nd Nov 2021 Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |

Down to a mark fully 17lb lower than when third at Catterick (7f, soft) in May, but he's hard to fancy on more recent evidence. |

8th 10 (8) |
15th Oct 2021 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Winless in 2021, and he arrives under something of a cloud too; others are more persuasive. |

6th 3 (7) |
7th Oct 2021 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

8yo who has been regressive this term and has been uncompetitive for a while now; however, he's run really well on each of his last five visits to this course, winning twice, and today is his first Ayr outing of the season; interesting contender having tumbled in the weights. |

9th Mar 2022 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Recorded his third Polytrack win when finishing well to beat a clear second off reduced mark at Lingfield (7f; well backed) last Wednesday; escapes a penalty for that success and has strong claims if he can repeat the form. |

1st 4 (8) |
2nd Mar 2022 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Successful off an 8lb higher mark at Chelmsford last summer; mixed bag since then but he's a course winner who has the ability to play a leading role; betting to guide. |

Course winner on the Fibresand but only 3-44 overall and not one to trust these days (can be reluctant to race). |

25th Jan 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

C&D winner on Fibresand last January but reluctant to race on occasions since headgear refitted last July; hard to have much faith in him now. |
33/1 |
