16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Dual hurdles winner for Gavin Cromwell; had been running some okay races over fences in her final runs for her former yard; back down to last winning mark now back over timber. |
13/1 |

5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 155y |
12st 0lb |
0-7 over fences but has run ok in defeat; shaped nicely when third in a C&D beginners' on penultimate and that form has since been boosted by the fourth Born Bright; go well back in handicap company with the cheekpieces worn last time left off. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 155y |
11st 5lb |
Two-time winning hurdler rated 110 in that discipline; 0-6 over fences and rated 7lb lower; not a bad run in a beginners' at Roscommon last month and cheekpieces could eke out more; go well for last year's winning yard. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 100y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Highly progressive for new yard this season and has won handicaps on her last four hurdle starts (2m7f-3m1f, good-soft), most recently in comfortable fashion at Ludlow last month; this is a much tougher test of her credentials but it remains to be seen where her limitations now lie. |
9/1 |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
3-7 for new stable since last summer, with one win gained over C&D (good) and the latest at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) last month; this race is more competitive but she might still be on the upgrade. |
9/2 |
|
1st 2 |
26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won on yielding ground in Ireland but her two hurdle wins (2m7f and 3m) in October were both on good ground and good to soft is probably as slow as she wants it; fell on her return to fences before Christmas and needs to justify a career-high mark, 7lb higher than her latest win. |

Tailed off in three starts this year (two over fences); was a two-time winner in 2023 but hard to recommend now. |

12th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 6y |

8th Aug 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Has lost his way since winning a Down Royal handicap chase in December 2023; didn't show enough on return from an absence latest; likely best watched back over hurdles. |

His three chase wins includes one at this course and was in decent form last autumn; however, has questions to answer after being pulled-up both runs this spring; blinkers replace visor. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

17th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y |

C&D winner last August off 3lb lower but only by the skin of his teeth and has been beaten between 10l and 14l in his last three races; needs to pull out more to win again but should run well. |

10st 13lb |
Didn't have a good strike-rate over hurdles or fences but then went back-to-back in 2m4f handicap chases on good to soft at Musselburgh late last year; 5lb higher than for that latest 5l success and her subsequent defeat was over hurdles; chance. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |

Wins a Musselburgh (2m4f) the last twice took her chase record to 3-10; only 1-22 over hurdles and has to deal with a career-high mark back in this sphere. |

2nd 2 |
11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |

Just 1-22 over hurdles but was a front-running second off 2lb lower at Kelso (2m2f, good) last month; mixed results in her six runs over fences but she had a win in Ireland last spring and still has potential in this sphere; not ruled out back in trip. |
