14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 13lb |
Below best when beaten 1-3 favourite in Wincanton Listed race in February but the ground was heavy there and she's better judged on her game win in valuable Windsor handicap (2m4f, soft) two starts ago; also suited by good ground; high on the list. |

2nd 1 |
14th Feb 2026 1m 7f 149y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Front-runner, who made it 2-4 over fences with a brave win a Class 2 handicap at Windsor (2m4f, soft; first run after wind surgery) last month; sets the standard on that form and she's open to more progress on this drop back in trip; strong contender. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |

Front-running mare; won at Kempton (2m2f, good) on chase debut and not disgraced in two subsequent starts, latest when almost 5l behind Hollygrove Cha Cha at Exeter (2m1f, heavy); has had wind surgery since and now gets a 6lb pull with that rival; bred to be as effective back over 2m4f; in the mix. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Launched chasing career with two wins in the autumn (2m4f/2m7f) and came second in two subsequent Listed races (hurdle/chase); lost out only narrowly to a next-time-out winner when back in a handicap at Leicester (2m4f, good to soft) last month and has a fighting chance here. |

|
2nd 1 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |

Won handicaps in the autumn on first two chase starts (2m4f/2m7f, good/good to soft) and runner-up in Listed races on both outings since, over hurdles at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) and fences at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft); leading claims back in handicap company. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Suffered dip in form after quite impressive win on chase/handicap debut in the autumn but was back on song when close third in valuable mares' chase at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; in much calmer waters here and ought to be hard to beat. |
6/4 |

3rd 8 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
Created pretty good impression when winning on chase/handicap debut at Kempton (2m4f, good) in November; yet to build on that effort but ran quite well when third at Warwick (2m, good to soft) last month and ought to be better suited by today's trip-and-ground combination; 1lb wrong; could have a say. |

3rd 3 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who scored on seasonal/chase/handicap debut at Kempton (2m4f, good) in November; well beaten twice since but may not have been suited by soft ground last time; drops back in trip here and may still have potential. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Seemingly back in prime form when beating a subsequent Cheltenham winner at Chepstow (2m3f, good to soft) in December but wasn't at same level when weakening third at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month, after a break, and needs that recent run to have brought her on. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Running well over fences for her current yard this season and opened chase account in 2m3f Chepstow handicap in December (race has thrown up three subsequent winners); big shout given she has gone well after a break too. |
13/8 |

5th 1 |
29th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 75y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
0-6 over fences and has made a few jumping errors, but has also shown ability including in both starts for this yard; back down in grade and cheekpieces are given a go, but this sharp 2m may not be a sufficient test for her now. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Last month's keeping-on second at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) came in just a run-of-the-mill handicap and she's now 0-4 over fences but she's unexposed over this sort of trip and may still have a bigger run in her; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winning hurdler; has got closer in each of her three runs over fences, last time beaten 5.5l at Warwick (2m, good to soft); could well have more to offer. |
100/30 |
|
4th 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Well beaten on chasing debut in January and probably didn't achieve a great deal when second of three behind short-odds winner at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last month; remains lightly raced but needs improvement here. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Opened chasing account at second attempt, with Listed success at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February, and was creditable second in Grade 2 Pendil at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) later that month; still has potential over fences; respected on handicap return. |
3/1 |

2nd 4 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Added to point, bumper and hurdles wins when battling on gamely in mares' Listed chase at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) 16 days ago; that was a career best and she may not have reached her ceiling just yet; faces a sterner assignment against male rivals but impossible to discount. |
6/1 |

1st 3 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Point/bumper/hurdles winner who is looking for the full set; ran well in novice handicap at Kempton (2m4f) on Boxing Day when making chase/seasonal debut; upped in class but is an interesting contender, being open to further improvement. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Has rather mixed record over fences this season but belied 40-1 odds when close third in valuable Windsor handicap (2m4f, soft) won by Bluey in January and last month's Cheltenham Festival defeat is easily excused; on good mark if on her mettle. |
9/1 |

7th 5 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has shown some promise over fences this season but she was only fourth of six in a Listed mares' chase at Huntingdon last month and has bundles to find in today's company. |
100/1 |
|
4th 2 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Five wins over hurdles; 0-4 since switched to fences but ran well off a handy mark in Windsor handicap (2m4f, soft) most recently; however, at the weights she has about a stone to find with the pick on ratings in this field. |
