20th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Caused 66-1 shock in Worcester novice (2m, good to soft) in June but very little has gone to plan since; struggled in two recent handicaps (2m1f/2m) and is not bred to benefit from this big hike up in trip; too risky. |

10th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Caused 66-1 shock in Worcester novice (2m, good to soft) in June but very little has gone to plan since and she was well beaten on latest outing three weeks ago; sports refitted tongue-tie/cheekpieces here; too risky. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Caused 66-1 shock in Worcester (2m, good to soft) in June but was well beaten before last-flight fall there on handicap debut in July and lost all chance when virtually refusing to race on the Flat last week; too risky. |

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 |
|
4th 5 |
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 |

7th 6 |
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. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Two wins over hurdles last October (first over 3m) and creditable runs since; quite interesting on her chase debut. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Made a winning start for this trainer at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October; hasn't really built on that since (beaten 17l when second over just short of 3m at Newcastle latest) but this is a weak race and being dropped another 2lb can only help. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Made a winning start for this trainer at Wetherby (2m5f, good; 4-1) in October, but she has found a few stronger since, including when a weakening third at Southwell (3m; beaten 12l) a fortnight ago; place possible, but no more than that from this mark. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Looked in excellent nick when making all for clearcut success at Plumpton (2m4f, soft) in February but was beaten about 30l over that C&D on next two outings; moves back up in trip with questions to answer. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Course regular who patently failed to give her true running here last time when much shorter in the betting than runner-up Ephyra; did it easily from the front over C&D the time before when 7lb lower; solid chance if back on song. |
11/2 |
|
6th 4 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Made all to notch her third C&D win (soft; from 7lb lower) three weeks ago; that was in a mares' contest but she was a comfortable winner and this track brings out the best in her; one of the likeliest candidates. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Safely held when odds-on for stable debut at Warwick (2m5f) in May but, with a tongue-tie fitted, made amends over 3m2f there (also on good) last month; came clear of the others with a progressive rival that day and could still be well handicapped after 5lb rise. |
15/8 |
|
1st 8 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Just 1-16 over hurdles when trained by Evan Williams and was unable to justify odds-on favouritism when only sixth of 12 here (2m5f, good) on last month's stable debut; may yet come good for Harry Derham, though, and this move back up in trip will suit; wears refitted tongue-tie; gained her win on good to firm but has form on good to soft; 3lb wrong. |
6/1 |
|
6th 12 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
3m hurdle winner last April in first-time cheekpieces, that her only win in 16 attempts, though often placed; given wind surgery after finishing a distant third at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in October on final start for Evan Williams; back in trip following a break and worth considering for stable going well. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
In-form 10yo who won over hurdles here (2m4f, soft) in November and over fences at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) last month; 6lb rise has now kicked in but she ran another solid race at Huntingdon last week and she remains well treated on old form; should go well again back over fences. |
7/2 |
|
4th 6 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
In-form 10yo; successful in two of her last three starts, latest at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) when returned to fences last week; stays 3m1f and has a leading chance off same mark; due to go up 6lb in future. |
4/1 |

1st 5 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

In good form over hurdles and ran creditably last time when bidding for a Leicester double; gained sole chase win in 2022 and returns to this sphere for first time since June 2024. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
0-14 over hurdles; excelled herself when fourth at huge odds in 2m3f Fontwell maiden in April but, having been hiked up the weights, was soundly beaten in both subsequent handicaps (2m5f/2m7f). |
50/1 |
|
8th 6 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
0-13 over hurdles; ran a big race at a massive price when fourth in a Fontwell maiden (2m3f, good to soft) last month but her mark shot up 41lb after that and she struggled back in a handicap at Fontwell (2m5f) last week; opposable. |
33/1 |
|
8th 4 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
0-12 over hurdles; excelled herself when 19l-fourth in maiden here (2m3f, good to soft) last month, prompting her mark to rise from 51 to 92; now needs to build on that performance on this handicap return. |
