19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Ran quite well when fourth of seven at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in February, her second start for Max Comley, but looked out of sorts at Hereford last month and is now 0-7 over hurdles. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Not progressing over hurdles and often undermines her chances by failing to settle, but has bits of form that bring her into the reckoning, notably when fourth at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in February; still something to find and stamina to prove over this longer trip. |

3rd 5 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Yet to settle in any hurdling start, though still managed to remain meaningfully involved until the run-in at Wincanton latest (1m7f, good to soft) even so; sharper track and sounder surface look the way to go. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 50y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Sole defeat in her last four races came at the hands of a progressive horse at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft); shrugged aside that minor blip with a workmanlike win at Chepstow (2m3f, soft); 3lb rise isn't the end of the world. |

1st 4 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
The hat-trick bid came up shy at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft; after two months off) but only went up 2lb despite finishing well clear of the third, and behind a progressive winner; considered. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 11 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bids for a hat-trick, having made all in mares' contests over 2m4f at Uttoxeter (soft) and Aintree (good to soft) in December, taking record to 3-8; upped in grade and goes back against males but is a progressive contender. |

5th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Lightly raced but allowed to go off at 50-1 on handicap debut in January (2m, good to soft) and was pulled up; hard to be confident. |

16th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Well beaten (bled from the nose) on penultimate outing but showed ability in her other two qualifying races, more recently when fourth in race won easily by 1-25 favourite; it's tricky to gauge what that form is worth but she's open to improvement in handicaps. |

Half-sister to five Flat winners from 5f to 1m4f; always behind when 80-1 for soft-ground Cheltenham Listed race on New Year's Day; has her sights lowered but still makes very limited appeal. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
About 11l fourth to Betty's Daisy at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) on second start over hurdles; a bit better when coming from the rear for sixth of 12 at Market Rasen (near 2m5f, soft) on latest, which isn't the most persuasive evidence but this handicap debut should give her a better chance. |

6th 9 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two fair runs over hurdles this term, last time finishing fourth in a 2m5f mares' novice at Ludlow (good to soft); each-way chance on handicap debut. |

9st 0lb |
Bit of promise at a modest level on the Flat; hung badly right but opened her account at Fakenham (2m7f) in latest hurdles start; respected off current mark assuming she transfers the form back to this code. |

Sixth foal; sister to winners Cowboy Cooper (3m chase) and Cawthorne Cracker (2m-2m2f hurdle); dam unraced half-sister to winners TB Broke Her (2m-3m1f hurdle/chase) and Between The Waters (2m3f-2m5f chase); 4yo filly getting all the allowances and in a top stable. |

Beat only one home at Ludlow and none at Market Rasen, so brings no form claims from her two bumpers; same stable as Hard Dealt. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Progressed well in bumpers and ran encouragingly behind Betty's Daisy and Edith Pelham when fourth of 16 at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) on second start over hurdles; she was much further behind Edith Pelham at Southwell 19 days ago, but these are early days for this handicap debutante. |

2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper progress culminated in a good effort at Listed level; ran encouragingly, one place behind Edith Pelham, at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) in the latest of two attempts over hurdles; bred to rate higher still and warrants respect. |

Verdict
Newbury fifth Tyger Lily is a possible improver on her second start but those who have raced set just a modest standard and this could go to one of the newcomers. Top of the list is SHOTGUN SHIRLEY, who hails from a family her trainer Lucy Wadham has done well with. And She Was also has an attractive pedigree and she is second choice. Gaelic Saint and the Nicky Henderson-trained Oracle Park are other interesting debutantes.[Ben Hutton]
