11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
First two runs (November) were her best from this season and she didn't shine back in handicaps on last two outings; however, her 2m4f win in a big-field handicap at 2024 Aintree festival should not be forgotten and she also ran well in Graded/Listed contests for most of last term; needs a close look, particularly given Dan Skelton's fine record in handicap hurdles at this meeting. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 63y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Useful mare (dual Listed scorer) but last two efforts, latest back at handicap level, suggest she's unlikely to defy top weight in this warm field. |

31st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
There's a suspicion she's on a tough mark and that a longer trip is preferable; however, she won at Aintree's Grand National meeting in 2024 on the last occasion she tackled a handicap (2m4f, soft) and she's won two Listed races since; this classy mare is not ruled out. |

5th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who returned from long absence with narrow win at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) in December but was never dangerous in her follow-up bid at Windsor (fourth of eighth) last month; that wasn't a bad effort but she needs to find more to defy this mark. |
9/2 |

2nd 8 |
7th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Didn't take to fences on first two starts this season; 2-4 over hurdles last campaign, latterly with a 3m win here on handicap debut, and not discredited on return to hurdling four weeks ago considering that was over only 2m; needs a second look. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 |
9th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hasn't taken to fences this season but she was 2-4 over hurdles last campaign and she's only 3lb higher than for the handicap success; on the downside, she has something to prove on ground this soft and all her form is at 2m4f+. |

23rd May 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Responded well to first-time visor when winning Exeter seller (2m2f, good) last month but was safely held when back in a handicap a fortnight later and her overall profile remains unconvincing. |

27th Apr 2023 Good 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Justified favouritism in a seller at Exeter (2m2f, good; visor added) two weeks ago but she didn't have to run up to her best in that race and this is much tougher back in a competitive handicap; has some work to do. |
8/1 |

1st 6 |
11th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Has yet to find any consistency and hasn't offered much in her two handicaps (soft an excuse last time), but she ran okay behind decent mares on her first two runs over hurdles; disappointing if she fails to play a part at this level; visor is a first. |

1st May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Unlucky to lose last June's Uttoxeter chase win (3m, good) on a medical technicality; wheels came off in the autumn but she has revived for current yard, keeping on well for Higham and High Easter open successes on good to firm; could prove the answer. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Unlucky to lose June's hard-fought Uttoxeter chase win (3m, good) off this mark, when an ovarian tumour removed a month later was found to have increased her testosterone levels; effectiveness at today's shorter trip is long proven and this looks an easier contest than the 0-120 last time. |
