7th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Placed in valuable series final over fences at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in January but rest of last season's form was disappointing and it's hard to predict whether she'll be in the right mood for this return to hurdling; tried blinkers when pulled up last time; usual cheekpieces return. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Arrested her decline when placed in valuable final of this mares' series here (2m5f, good to soft; refitted cheekpieces) in January; two lesser efforts have followed and she's unreliable nowadays but she could be too good for this field if perked up by a change of headgear. |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Made all in this race on good ground a year ago and returned to some form with third in a valuable series final at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in January; however, not so good when back at Fakenham last month and this regressive 10yo has become unreliable. |

15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Has improved since undergoing wind surgery for her new trainer this year and went back-to-back at Leicester (2m4f, good to soft) and Wincanton (3m1f, good); last run was too bad to be true but she did go up 7lb for that last win in a race that fell apart. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won a bumper and over fences for Matt Crawley last season but has improved since undergoing wind surgery for her new trainer this year; appreciated the step up in trip when winning for the second time in succession at Wincanton (3m1f, good) 12 days ago; up 7lb but should be hard to beat. |

1st 3 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Built upon a satisfactory stable debut when scoring by a neck at Leicester (2m4f, good to soft) this month and is now 2-7 over fences; only 2lb higher here and will be suited by the faster ground; strong claims if stamina holds out over the new trip. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Well held by Chuggy on her chase debut/reappearance at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in October but she was by no means done with when coming down at the last at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) three weeks ago; got a 1lb nudge for that and should be competitive if it hasn't left a mark. |

29th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual 2m course winner over hurdles, most recently off 2lb lower; shaped as though her chase debut was needed this month when back from a break and her pedigree suggests she may improve for this longer trip. |

Hasn't kicked on from a second on chase debut but did some good late work behind Boys Of Wexford at Taunton the last time; that was over 2m7f and now goes further. |

Second on her chase debut at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in October but has failed to back up that run since; no improvement following wind surgery last time and has been dropped another 5lb. |

10st 11lb |
2-13 over fences, latest off 1lb higher in June 2024 under Sean Bowen; form has been mixed since but she ran well for a long way at Chepstow on return from nearly four months off; on a fair mark if building on that. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Resumed winning ways at Fakenham (2m7f) in April but she made mistakes when a remote third of five in 2m5f handicap chase there 12 days ago; needs to get back on track. |

3rd 5 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won this race a year ago and was also on target over hurdles here (2m7f, good) last month; again ran well when second in 3m chase (good) three weeks ago but is effectively 10lb higher from out of the weights today. |

2nd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won over fences here (2m5f, good) last spring and doubled her course tally in modest handicap hurdle (2m7f, good) a week ago; far too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but reverts to chasing on a good mark and has obvious claims if in the right mood again. |
