2nd 4 |
10th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner who has posted mixed results since switched to chasing, best effort when third at Warwick (2m4f, good) on penultimate start; mistake contributed to her defeat there latest; still quite unexposed over this distance and not written off. |

4th 6 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper and novice hurdle winner; 0-4 as a chaser but best form yet in this scene when a 3l fourth over C&D four weeks ago and entitled to build on that. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 2 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Bumper and novice hurdle winner who is in top hands and has dropped down the weights; could rebound at some stage but she needs to produce more than she's managed on her first three chase starts. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Back on the up (in first-time cheekpieces) when easily landing a gamble in 2m1f handicap at Newton Abbot 17 days ago; up 7lb but runner-up has gone in since so this C&D winner merits serious consideration in retained headgear. |
11/4 |

1st 2 |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won two novice hurdles on good ground last May (2m/2m1f); no impact at 12-1 or bigger in five handicaps but she rallied to finish a respectable sixth of 15 at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in March; continues to drop down the weights and could be dangerous if first-time cheekpieces work. |
7/2 |
|
6th 11 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Won two novice hurdles last May (2m/2m1f) and she could benefit from this drop back in trip; however, she hasn't shone in handicaps this winter and others are more compelling, including stablemate First Candidate. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Major personal best on last week's return from eight months out, staying on well late to take a 2m7f Worcester novice handicap (good); little to choose between her peak previous RPRs with or without cut, so she may well cope if the rain arrives; player despite the penalty. |

1st 9 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Things appeared to be picking up when fourth at Uttoxeter (stepped up to 2m4f, good) but she then disappointed over a tad further at Sedgefield; hard to be confident. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-8 over hurdles but ran well in defeat at Warwick (3m1f, good) three weeks ago, albeit in what looked a modest race, and enters calculations here. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 8 |
4th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Nothing to show for four runs in handicaps and she's 5lb out of the weights here; what could help is the step up in trip from 2m4f. |
10/1 |

6th 11 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
4lb wrong today in her fourth handicap and she has very ropey claims; maybe a move away from soft ground will help. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
A fair 1m6f Flat winner but she's yet to match that form in this sphere and came in a below-par seventh in 2m3f handicap here 56 days ago; more is required. |
5/1 |
|
7th 6 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Modest form over hurdles but last week's C&D third of ten on heavy shows she can be competitive from her mark. |
