28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) last winter and she returned after nine months off with a near-miss at Warwick (3m1f, soft) in November; looks interesting on that form but she's not matched it in two runs since and needs to rediscover her spark. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Solid contender on the form of a Chepstow win (2m7f) last February and when narrowly failing to give weight to a subsequent winner at Warwick (3m1f, also on soft) in November; lacked the pace to play a part on good to soft there since but today's surface and lower grade will help. |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Runner-up in two of her three handicaps, most recently at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) in February; has won on good ground; this lightly raced 7yo could have more to offer and is one to consider. |

9th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Maiden and novice winner who showed her best form when front-running second at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November on handicap debut; she followed that, however, with last of seven at Doncaster (2m3f) 15 days ago; new trip is plausible. |

18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Unseated rider at the start at Chepstow two starts ago but she's run some good races this season, winning at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) in December and fourth of 15 at Windsor (3m, soft) in January; wears first-time cheekpieces and might not be far away. |
5/1 |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 174y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Scored at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) in December and made the frame in good-quality contests at Cheltenham (3m, good) and Windsor (soft) last month; blotted her copybook when unseating rider at the start at Chepstow recently but still commands respect. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
C&D winner on good to soft in December and has held her own in Class 2s since then, including a placed effort behind live Stayers' Hurdle contender Ma Shantou; likeable type and should have every chance. |

held up in rear, steady headway after 7th, raced in second when not fluent 3 out, lost position before 2 out, weakened before last |

5th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Went close at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in December and also ran well when fourth over C&D (soft) in February; current mark is workable but she was very disappointing on good ground last month and would appeal much more on a slower surface. |
4/1 |

9th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Not disgraced in two of her last three starts as when fourth of eight at Chepstow (3m, soft) four weeks ago, but this trip on drying ground may be an insufficient test for her now and she looks vulnerable to younger rivals. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
In-form staying mare whose wins in December/February flanked second-place finishes; made the frame at Newbury most recently; may no longer be a step ahead of the assessor but still holds reasonably solid claims. |
6/1 |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 57y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
2-4 since returned to hurdling in the autumn, the latter win gained in four-runner mares' race at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) a fortnight ago; evidently in very good nick but has quite a bit more on her plate here. |
7/1 |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Couldn't get much going over fences but form figures of 122 since returned to hurdling at Class 4 level; up a grade here off a career-high mark, but this assured stayer has plenty in her favour otherwise. |

11yo who hasn't been at her best over fences on her two runs this term; however, she reverts to hurdles after a wind op, off the same mark as for her hurdle win at Ffos Las (3m, soft) last April; not ruled out. |

Last won in January 2023 and mostly disappointing in the meantime; attracted support last time at Chepstow where the tongue-tie was removed but not a lot happened. |

Used to go well over staying trips in the mud but last won in January 2023 and has shown only bits of form since; big shout with even a partial revival and the recent tongue-tie is removed. |

10st 12lb |
12yo who is 5-36 over hurdles, the latest win at Wincanton (3m, soft) last March off 2lb lower; needs much better than she's delivered last two starts, a start to the campaign which contrasts starkly with last term but her trainer has had recent winners. |
