11th 6 (12) |
20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Unproven on ground slower than good; 3yo filly who seems to have been well suited by dropping back to 7f in cheekpieces, landing a six-runner handicap at Yarmouth (good to firm) and making all at Newmarket (good to firm) 19 days ago; another 6lb higher in this more competitive race but can't be dismissed lightly in her current form. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Campaigned over as far as 10.3f but proved well suited by the drop back to 7f when winning in clearcut style at Yarmouth (good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month; now that connections have found the key, she's open to further improvement; leading contender. |

1st 2 (9) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Has had plenty of chances, runner-up on four of six maiden runs over shorter trips, most recently on turf return when clear second over 1m2f at Naas in late April; good chance she'll get this trip (Irish Oaks entry) but will need to improve for it. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
27th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 84y |
9st 3lb |
Rated 77; runner-up in three of four starts on AW including at this trip the last twice at Dundalk earlier this year; well held by Cape Primrose on sole turf start at Thurles on debut but that rival had the benefit of a previous run; in the mix if ready after break. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 7lb |
Lope De Vega filly has finished runner-up in 8.5f Wolverhampton fillies' novice in October and in C&D maiden last month when clear second to a lesser-fancied stablemate, having been slowly away; suspicion is she still has more to offer so could go well. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Travelled well before asserting at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, opening her account at the eighth attempt; contests a deeper race here but is only 3lb higher; ought to make her presence felt. |
6/1 |
|
1st 2 (3) |
14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Fair maiden who has taken minor honours in two of her four handicaps, a rallying second of eight at Ripon (1m2f, good) on latest outing; unraced on firmer than good; firmly in the mix if she acts on it. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 5 (2) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Promising third on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) last month but she's taken two backward steps since; mark is sliding but she was beaten 9l over this trip at Salisbury last time and others are more convincing. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Thrice-raced filly who is from a family that has served her owner well; faded into modest fourth over C&D on reappearance but looks open to improvement now handicapping with the outing under her belt and tongue-tie fitted; interesting contender. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Down the field on her Kempton debut last October but she shaped with a degree of promise when keeping on for fourth in 8.6f fillies' novice at Wolverhampton 18 days later; hooded for her return; capable of better. |
3/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
28th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Half-sister to Nahraan (including AW/Listed; RPR 111), but finished a well-held fifth of six on her Kempton debut (1m, Polytrack; 9-1) 18 days ago; needs to improve. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Matched previous best when tongue tied and fourth in Newmarket maiden (1m, good; form upheld) on her reappearance in April; brings potential to this handicap debut. |
8/1 |
|
4th 8 (1) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Wootton Bassett filly whose autumn efforts comprised a promising fourth at Newmarket (7f) then lesser effort on AW; may show progress returned to turf with tongue-tie fitted. |
25/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
28th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
150,000gns yearling; kept on well when fourth of seven finishers on her Newmarket debut (7f, good to firm; 11-1) last month; subsequent wins by the second and sixth give the form substance and she is a half-sister to a dual AW winner; worth a second look. |

28th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

March foal by Ghaiyyath; 350,000gns foal; half-sister to winners Youth Spirit (7f 2yo/1m4f Group 3; RPR 112), Canberra Legend (1m/1m1f including AW/Listed; 109) and Tarbaan (1m-1m2f including AW; 89); dam unraced half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Blaine; apprentice ridden on debut, but still interesting given her pedigree and the stable's record here; market crucial. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Patchy form in four handicaps from 6f to 1m but she's bred on similar lines to Derby winner Desert Crown so may have more to offer over this new trip; hood added. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (10) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hung left last time (may have been down to soft ground); had previously offered more in first-time cheekpieces, without quite seeing out a stiff 1m in better company, and a case could be made for this half-sister to a three-time Kempton winner. |
10/1 |
|
11th 6 (8) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five-race maiden; faded into sixth of 13 in first-time cheekpieces at Newmarket (1m) most recently; bred to do better still, being related to two winners for her connections; possibilities dropped back in trip. |

28th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
