20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
From out of the handicap she's 12lb higher than when winning at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) 12 days ago in her second handicap hurdle; however, she did it comfortably and may well have more to offer in this code, especially now up in trip (won at up to 2m on the Flat); versatile ground-wise. |
5/1 |

1st 8 |
8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A fair 2m winner on the Flat in 2025; not at that level in four runs in this sphere, including on her handicap debut when a never-dangerous sixth of 13 at Catterick (2m) in January; she could still do better though after a break granted this stiffer test of stamina. |
11/2 |

6th 7 |
21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Made hurdle debut in November and soundly beaten on her three runs in this code, but she now goes handicapping off a lowly mark and she was progressive on the Flat last year (albeit at modest level); this 5yo will be all the more interesting if attracting market support. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
1-24, the win coming by a nose at Wetherby (2m, good to firm) over two years ago; 28-1 when second of five over C&D (Quercus Robur last) three weeks ago but that was a messy event and he'll need a bit more today. |
12/1 |

2nd 5 (6) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Signed off for Ian Williams with two runner-up spots at this trip on AW in 2023; all starts on turf since and was second of seven at Catterick three starts ago; beaten 16l at Ripon (2m, good to firm; Lillistar just denied) last time; not entirely ruled out back on this surface. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Over 6l behind Zephlyn over C&D last May; some fair form since (won over 2m at Wolverhampton in October) but not quite at her best back on turf last twice (over 2m5f and 1m4f); place chance. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Not at her best over hurdles or here (extended 2m5f) last month; drop in trip can help but others appeal more for win purposes. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 (10) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 139y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Below her best over hurdles 16 days ago but runner-up on the Flat at Newcastle (2m, AW) last month; consistent in this code last August-October and she's shaped as though this test of stamina could suit; on the shortlist. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-11 and modest form, beaten 5l in a 1m2f classified here (first-time tongue-tie; stays further) last time; first go at this trip. |
12/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unplaced in all ten starts, including one over C&D, and has been campaigned over further since returning in May; drop in class and first-time tongue-tie may result in a better performance. |
7/1 |

10 (5) |
17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the Flat here (2m, soft) in November; fourth on hurdle debut here (1m7f, good to soft) later that month and improved when runner-up at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in December; he's high on the list today. |
9/4 |
|
5 (2) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular who landed a fourth win here (his third over this trip) when 28-1 and beating Edwardtheninth one month ago; flopped under a 5lb penalty the following week (Team Endeavour second) but that tactical race may be best ignored; could well bounce back. |
7/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Won his fourth race at this track and third over C&D when scoring at 28-1 last Thursday on his return from a break; 5lb penalty doesn't leave him well in but this is a weak event. |
