23rd Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Successful in 1m fillies' handicaps at this course in May and Goodwood in August; last two efforts suggests she remains in form but a career-best performance is needed off current mark. |
16/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
13th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
No match for Asteverdi at Sandown in June but C&D winner (good to soft) in August and a solid third behind one who has since outgrown handicaps over 1m at Ascot in September; fairly exposed now but this lesser test might suit better; not far away. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Has run some good races on Tapeta this year and only just failed at Southwell (5f) in April; however, he wasn't in much form on turf in 2025, including in this race, and looks unlikely to break his turf duck. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 9 (1) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Two of his three wins have been over C&D and he was second of eight here in a classified event in February; below his best in two starts since but he may be capable of bouncing back. |
12/1 |
|
8th 5 (2) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who looked unlucky not to finish closer when having Stroxx and A Lady Forever behind here last weekend; not as good now and has a bit to find on these terms but does at least arrive in form. |

13th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Eight-race maiden who has proven consistent rather than progressive; didn't see out 7f quite so well as reopposing stablemate Tropical Air at Wolverhampton 18 days ago; more minor money perhaps her best hope. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth and fifth in his two big-field C&D races last term; Newcastle win in March ensures a career-high mark today but it's hard to judge him harshly on last week's C&D result as he didn't see daylight at various stages. |
20/1 |
|
16th 17 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Couple of sound performances on Newcastle AW this year, winning over 7f latest; back on career-high mark but he's a five-time turf scorer who has form over C&D and appears to hold solid claims. |
10/1 |
|
1st 11 (5) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Spring has been quite a productive time for him which provides hope that he can build on a promising reappearance third over 6f here 15 days ago; has raced mainly at 7f/1m in recent years so the step back up in trip should help if anything. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Turf/AW winner who fared best of those who were handy when close up at Newcastle; went off favourite there and his turn looks near. |
7/2 |
|
11 (8) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; the return to 6f didn't have a positive effect at Catterick last time but he had finished third on Tapeta on his penultimate start; others look safer. |
12/1 |
|
6 (9) |
27th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Signed off last year in a fine run of form on the AW and has been knocking on the door this year, including on turf; this is a belated return to 6f but one to consider. |
8/1 |
