15th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Well handicapped on old form and will be suited by today's trip/ground but became disappointing last year and made a low-key reappearance in May; revival needed. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in November 2024 but she struggled last year and was beaten 20l at Sedgefield when last seen in November; now 4lb lower than for her last success but she needs a major revival after a break. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Only 1lb higher than when winning at Ludlow (3m, good) last November but has very unconvincing record since returning from a break in April; lost jockey when attempting to refuse at first flight on penultimate appearance and was soundly beaten when fourth last time; others are much less risky. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Sole win came over C&D (good) in May and has run well a couple of times since, but has also bled on a couple of occasions including on her chase debut back here (3m, good) last month; others more persuasive. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Only win came in this race 12 months ago off 1lb lower and she returns on the back of a 5l defeat three weeks ago; should run well, provided she takes to the new blinkers. |
5/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Got off the mark when winning at this track (2m5f, good) last July off 2lb lower; runner-up three times since and didn't get the clearest of passages last time; a return to this track may well spark her back to form. |
5/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Just 1-17 over hurdles, the win gained at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last summer, but she made a satisfactory reappearance last month and her current mark is workable; considered each-way. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 5f 192y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Soundly beaten in her first two handicaps (2m6f/2m7f) and competes from 3lb out the weights here; needs combination of first-time cheekpieces and switch to slow ground to enable huge improvement. |
14/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Glimmers of promise in novices (2m-2m3f) and reportedly resented the fast ground when tailed off on handicap debut (2m6f); only 11-1 for that and could be given another chance. |
16/1 |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |

Unexposed 5yo; showed only minor promise in her three qualifying runs but combination of new trip and first-time tongue-tie may enable improvement on this handicap debut. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Went close in 16-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July, her second run since returning to racing under rules; below that form when well-held fourth over C&D since but has cheekpieces refitted today; can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Made low-key return to racing under rules in June but last month's close second of 16 behind Cinderello in refitted cheekpieces at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) was a good effort; goes without cheekpieces here but still features prominently in calculations. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 10 |
16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Runner-up in four consecutive points this year; made low-key rules return/stable debut three weeks ago (2m4f) but will be suited by today's move back up in trip, and the refitted cheekpieces may also aid her cause. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten in first three handicaps, most recently when never on terms at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) last month, but tries a new trip here and connections are persisting with her; worth a glance in the betting. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |

50-1 and 33-1 when well beaten in her first two handicaps (2m4f/2m3f); could be considered only if much stronger in the betting on this first start for 134 days. |

27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Poor maiden hurdler on balance who unseated her rider at the first in 2m6f Stratford handicap nine days ago; others appeal more. |
50/1 |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten at triple-digit odds in three Uttoxeter novice hurdles (2m-2m4f) this season; has more realistic chance to get competitive in this handicap but still needs to take a big step forward. |
25/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Not far away in two of her runs but the form lacks substance; 250-1 when well beaten here last month. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Came good over hurdles at sixth attempt, making all in five-runner contest at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in June, but the form isn't anything to go wild about and she was pulled up in Uttoxeter race won by Cinderello last month. |
8/1 |

16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |

Came good over hurdles at sixth attempt, making all in five-runner contest at Fakenham (2m7f, good) last month; will find it tougher to dominate this much deeper race but further progress is possible. |
