13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Good impression made on April's Ayr hurdling debut (2m, good to soft; third won next time), but form of successful Newton Abbot follow-up has taken a few knocks and it was a crunching fall she took at Ffos Las latest; mark okay, and all about whether she's over that unfortunate experience. |

11st 7lb |
Three Flat wins in Germany; up and down in Britain but was involved in two close finishes in 2024 (best RPR 87); 2-2 over hurdles for new yard, having it pretty much her own way at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) recently; Sir Galahad will provide much more of a test but it looks tight between them. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Off since below-par run in October but the form of his breakthrough win at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in September worked out quite well; cheekpieces (worn once last summer) are given another whirl; contender if fully tuned up. |

Well down the pecking order in his top yard but opened his hurdles account in Sedgefield handicap (2m1f, good; beat a subsequent scorer) most recently and may build on that solid success; respected. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-10 over hurdles; two of this year's six runs for Fergal O'Brien offered significant hope but she was soundly beaten on her latest outing; now back in the care of Barry Brennan; others have much less to prove. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Ever more temptingly handicapped, and still doing some okay late work behind the uncontainable Beorma over Southwell's 2m4f last time; previous tribulations in two Cornish points and one other staying hurdle temper enthusiasm ahead of this step back up in trip, however. |

Remains winless and she underwent wind surgery before a below-par fifth of eight in 2m Huntingdon handicap two weeks ago; others are preferred. |

Showed a bit more when 100-1 for a 2m1f novice hurdle here recently, finishing about 20l behind the winner; entitled to be more competitive now handicapping. |

Still unexposed after only four hurdling starts but was well beaten when 40-1 for recent handicap debut at Warwick (2m3f, good); drops back in trip with tongue-tie and blinkers added here. |

Has got better with each of his four runs, finishing a 22l fifth in a Newton Abbot novice (2m1f, good) four weeks ago, and this handicap debut provides a first realistic opportunity; however, improvement is still needed. |

Placed in a Fontwell bumper (good) and a 2m Worcester novice hurdle (good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) in June, but not so good since, most recently on handicap debut when appearing not to stay the 2m4f; drops back in trip with a bit to prove. |

0-6 but respectable efforts when placed in a bumper (good) and 2m novices' hurdle (good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) here last month; not as good back here latest; step up in trip is probably a positive; not ruled out. |
