Tomorrow, FlatClass 41m
Verdict

JIMMY SPEAKING has returned an improved performer in 2026 and emerged with credit having raced up with a strong gallop in a higher grade than this at Epsom last time. He's preferred to Cadarn, who retains handicapping scope on the back of his shock York win, and recent C&D winner Jesmond Dawn.

    Verdict
    Began 2025 with 2 Redcar wins (for George Boughey) and returned to form from out of the blue with a tongue strap reapplied when winning a 14-runner handicap at York (1m, good to firm) 21 days ago, keeping on well after going with plenty of zest in front. Up 3 lb but still well treated on old form.

    Verdict
    Has returned better than ever, justifying good support in 16-runner handicap at Doncaster before following up despite doing plenty wrong at Southwell (7f). Ran well again when runner-up at Newmarket (1m) last month and fared best of those ridden prominently in a strong race at Epsom since.

    Verdict
    Landed back-to-back handicaps at Wolverhampton in March and has held his well enough without really looking to have enough handicapping scope in 0-85 company since. Makes debut for new connections (left Dr Richard Newland) having slipped below his previous winning mark.

    Verdict
    Looked like developing into a very useful handicapper last summer but has been disappointing this term, checking again tamely again when trailing home last of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) 19 days ago.

    Verdict
    Narrowly landed the odds in a Dundalk maiden (1m) in February but hasn't kicked on in handicaps since, often racing too freely and/or starting slowly. Left Mrs J. Harrington for 5,000gns before his latest start, when last of 14 in a York handicap.

    Verdict
    Seven-time C&D winner was placed 3 times in April/May and forced the pace until being headed approaching the final 1f when fourth of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) 19 days ago. Has eased further in the weights and can't be ruled out with blinkers back on.

    Verdict
    Has a good record here (finished in the first 2 on 5 of his 7 starts) and proved better than ever when winning a 9-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 12 days ago. Up in grade from 5 lb higher mark but he should go well again.
