11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Course winner who keeps on improving and was a fine second of 24 in the Pertemps Final (Handicap) at Cheltenham (3m, good) last month; receives 7lb mares' allowance but today's assignment requires a clear career best. |

10st 9lb |
Never better than on her last three starts, winning a Listed mares' hurdle at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) on first occasion; minor honours in Grade 2 events since (hooded last time, not today); reliable and basically progressive but she needs to resume improvement in this hot handicap. |

7yo who has shown improved form this season and won a Listed mares' hurdle at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in December; similar form when held in fourth in mares' Grade 2 there (3m, soft) three weeks ago and it seems likely she'll prove vulnerable today; wears a first-time hood. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Failed to build on an encouraging return over fences in November, but latest effort over hurdles following a break was a good step forward when a close second over C&D ten days ago; nudged up 3lb for that and yet to win in handicap company, which suggests she possibly remains on a tough enough mark. |

Won a mares' novice at Kelso in December 2024 (2m5f, soft); back over hurdles after seven runs over fences, best form when third over C&D in November (good to soft); bit disappointing since. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
May still have more to offer for Dan Skelton but is by no means certain to follow up a fortuitous win at Fakenham (2m4f) where she was gifted the race when the clear leader exited; now 1lb higher in a stronger event. |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 1y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Very useful on the Flat in 2024 and made winning handicap hurdle debut for Lucy Wadham at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft) last February before finishing second in a Listed race; safely held on seasonal/stable debut at Kempton just after Christmas but will probably come good for Dan Skelton soon. |

11st 3lb |
Claims on March's Newcastle third (2m4f, good to soft), but cosmetically respectable form figures this year disguise one or two heavy defeats, this trip as much the issue as her jumping left at Fakenham latest. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Slightly disappointing at Southwell 12 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but her close third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) was a pretty good effort and she has possibilities here if stamina holds out on first venture beyond about 2m5f. |
6/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Yet to win over fences but has performed with credit when reaching the frame on her last two starts, latterly third of eight over 2m4f at Newcastle (good to soft) four weeks ago. |

Belied 80-1 odds when placed off today's mark in this race last year but was well beaten on next hurdling start and has been absent since some disappointing Flat runs in the autumn; too risky. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Four-time winner in Ireland (1m1f/1m2f) but the latest of those wins came over two years ago; didn't run badly at Beverley on her Flat debut for this yard but she was beaten a long way at Catterick three weeks ago; down in class but others look stronger. |

Low-mileage 6yo who is 2-2 at this sort of distance, the wins in Irish point (3m) last May and Plumpton handicap hurdle (3m1f) this month, both on good ground; open to further improvement and commands respect. |
