Havanagreattime (G)
Useful sort at best but has struggled in 4 runs since sold from Richard Hughes. Tumbling down the grades but hard to fancy at present.

Bright (G)
Better known for all-weather exploits and little promise to take from recent turf efforts. Able to race from career-low mark here but of more interest back on synthetics.

Back-to-back seconds in August at Redcar and Pontefract confirmed his return to form and he was far from disgraced in better company than this last 2 starts. Stable amongst the winners this week and …

Ingleby Archie (G)
Speedy type who made all from 2 lb higher mark in 5-runner event over C&D in June. Not quite so good since and may find this bigger field harder to dominate.

Royal Accord (G)
Won 4 times in 2025 for Stuart Williams and, though he's largely struggled for this yard this year, his last couple of outings have given more hope and he's now dipped below his last winning mark. Co…

Promise when third at Chester in maiden that has worked out well in May but not so encouraging in handicaps next 2 starts at same track so hard to be too positive about now.

Cairdeas (G)
Second of 5 to Ingleby Archie over C&D in June but hasn't fired on all-weather since. Falling down the weights and return to turf may help but he is still yet to win a handicap.

Won at Ripon in July and has shown good form when in-frame all starts since, including behind a couple of subsequent winners, so this mark is likely still well within his capabilities and he looks on…

Yet to win in 13 starts and hasn't shown much for current yard, but she hasn't tried turf yet this year and she's actually finished runner-up on all 3 outings on this surface which at least gives her…

Third at Nottingham over 5f this time last year and produced best effort since when fourth of 14 in a handicap at Newcastle over 6f on all-weather 26 days ago, though appeared to have every chance.
