Ready winner at Doncaster last month and overcame a 9 lb rise at Leicester the following week. Excellent second at Yarmouth since so he's clearly in top form.
|
Third at Doncaster last July on her final outing for John & Sean Quinn. No better than respectable efforts across 4 starts for current yard, albeit race wasn't run to suit on reappearance over C&D in April.
|
Kempton winner from 5 lb higher in October. Yet to find top gear in 2026, making little impression back on turf, albeit left poorly placed.
|
Landed a big gamble on second start back at Leicester in April. Not seen to best effect next 2 starts and back on his game when third at Doncaster 3 weeks ago.
|
Dual handicap winner in 2025 for David O'Meara but ended the year on a low-key note for current yard. However, after 5 months off she bounced back to best when causing a 66/1 surprise at Hamilton. Never looked like defying a penalty at York and now back at 7f.
|
Building a good record for this rider as he resumed winning ways back on turf over C&D in April. Never really a win factor both starts since, 1¾ lengths seventh of 13 to Mae Amor in handicap at Hamilton 3 weeks ago (6f). Return to this trip is in his favour.
|
Landed the odds in a Ripon maiden a year ago on just his second start for new stable. Shaped well when fifth of 16 in a handicap there on reappearance and in better heart than recent runs suggest.
|
Twelve runs since last win in 2024 but shaped better than bare result second start back from a breathing operation when fourth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (7f, soft) 19 days ago, doing too much too soon.
|
Barely beaten a rival in 5 starts since his latest success at Newcastle (7f) in December.

Forecasts
Zubaru (7/4), Modern Times (11/4), Royalty Bay (13/2), Black Storm (13/2), Abduction (17/2), Wreck It Ryley (16/1), Yaaser (18/1), Society Man (33/1), Mae Amor (33/1)
MODERN TIMES has been shaping up well in slightly better handicaps than this and from a career-low mark, he looks the way to go. Zubaru arrives in top form so has to be feared, while this sharp 7f should suit Black Storm.
