Ripon 15:45 Odds Comparison

Developed into a useful performer for Tom Clover last year, winning a novice on reappearance. Had excuses racing on disadvantaged side of track on first run for new yard when eighth of 19 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Looks the sort of recruit this yard do well with.

A C&D winner of a 3-y-o handicap on this card 12 months ago. Ran with credit on subsequent outings but shaped as if amiss last 2 starts, though faced stiff task in listed race at Bro Park last September. The return to a realistic level should help but well-being has to be taken on trust.

Steadily progressive during 2025, finishing out of the places only once. Shaped encouragingly when fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 7/1) on reappearance 19 days ago. There's every reason to suggest he can build on that and finally open his account in handicaps down in grade.

Successful 5 times over this 6f trip in 2025. Proved at least as good as ever when second of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good to firm, 14/1) on return 8 days ago. Prominent racer who's on a handy mark.

Had dropped back to last winning mark when third of 14 in handicap (18/1) at Newcastle (6f) last month. Drops back in grade and should be competitive once more.

Ended long losing run dropped in grade in 12-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) when last seen in November. Yard is having a remarkable year on the Flat.

Signed off for Ivan Furtado with a good second at Kempton (6f) in October. Has been a bit below form both starts this year but it's still early days for this yard.

Four wins from 14 runs last year, including twice over C&D. Rare below-par effort when tenth of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, heavy, 25/1) when last seen in October. Was successful on return last season but may be best watched on return despite dropping in grade.

8/13, didn't need to improve to win 8-runner maiden over C&D (good to firm) on second start for stable when last seen in June. Has long absence to overcome but is 1 Ib lower than when last seen in a handicap.

Was kept busy last year and recorded 4 wins, including the Great St Wilfrid Handicap over C&D. Took a step back in right direction when fourth of 12 in handicap (22/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 13 days ago. Has another change of headgear with the visor back on for turf return.

Scored twice on the all-weather over 6f at Newcastle in November before running below form both starts there this year. A 6-time C&D winner who returns to this venue from a 4 Ib lower mark than when last successful here and yard's been in very good form.

Ended 2025 with 2 poor efforts, extending his long losing run in the process. Has had some help from the handicapper as a result.

Successful on second start for this yard in handicap at Thirsk (5f) last spring and held his form well for the remainder of the year, including when second in Great St Wilfrid Handicap over C&D. Well held on return at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 18 days ago.

C&D winner. Had tumbled in the weights prior to recording a success in a handicap at Beverley (7f, good to soft) towards the end of last season. Probably needed the run when last of 19 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 18 days ago.

C&D winner as a juvenile. Ended last season with 3 creditable efforts on the all-weather. Returns for the year on a handy mark.

Won at Doncaster (6f) last summer but was mostly below form otherwise. Hard to weight up at present for all he's tumbled along way in the weights.
