22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Just third of five in funny race at Newcastle last time and is in danger of becoming exposed, especially as stepping up to 1m promised to unlock more; connections opt for more severe headgear this time. |

3rd 2 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; readily saw off his two rivals in a 7f novice at Chelmsford in June and his first two nursery runs were both solid efforts; well beaten at York six weeks ago and now moves up in distance with cheekpieces added; considered. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
A fair 1m juvenile maiden for Sean Woods; beat only one for his new yard on his return in 1m Musselburgh handicap though; others appeal more. |

9th 12 (3) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Consistent rather than progressive in eight starts last year, the latest when fourth of seven on stable debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) in November; more will be needed back from five months off. |

5th 8 (8) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Placed four times in maiden/novice company from 7f to 1m (including on the AW) but rather disappointing when sixth of eight on handicap debut at Yarmouth last month (7f, good to soft); blinkers now tried. |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-8 but mainly over 7f/1m and she shaped as if the drop back to 6f may suit when fourth of 12 over 7f at Wolverhampton ten days ago, leading until inside the final furlong; also equipped with a first-time tongue-tie; gets the vote. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Bumped into an improver when second at Newcastle (7f) last month and is of interest if judged on that performance but was well beaten on turf a fortnight ago and is now 0-7. |
10/1 |
|
16th 14 (5) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Arrives on the back of a good second of ten in 7f Newcastle handicap 25 days ago; yard is going well so she's a player off an unchanged mark. |
7/2 |
