Won by a length under Cara Tuke over C&D last week (good to soft) and escapes a penalty for that; that was a return to form and she can put a sequence of solid efforts together. |

Beaten 14 times since landing a 5f double here in January but placed several times here in the interim, most recently runner-up over C&D; every chance he'll be in the mix. |

30th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
5f-6f winner who acts on a sound surface; has been thereabouts on his last couple of starts without threatening to win; not ruled out each-way. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 7 (9) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ten-time winner but eight of those have been on AW and she's been generally disappointing since her classified win at Southwell (6f) in March; didn't run badly back at that track (fourth of ten) last week but she needs to build on that. |
12/1 |

24th May 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Consistent form this season includes a Thirsk success in April (ended a long losing spell); creditable second over C&D (good) most recently; solid contender off unaltered mark. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
8th May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In fine form this term, scoring at Thirsk in April and twice in the frame off a 5lb higher mark since, fourth of 12 at Catterick (5f) 26 days ago; he merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark with this return to 6f a plus. |

Scored twice over 7f in 2025 but she's failed to make the frame this season, eighth in 7f Redcar handicap five days ago. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Fair run when fifth over C&D last time when Perfidia was second and Mayo County third; has a bit to find with that pair but wouldn't rule out completely. |
14/1 |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Poor 1-22 strike-rate on turf and not at the top of her game on Southwell AW on her last two starts, but she's never really shone there; she's 5lb lower than for her close fourth over C&D (good) last October and is an interesting contender now away from Southwell. |

Got off the mark in a Dundalk handicap (6f, Polytrack) in October but she's not gone on from that in four runs since; had tough task in a claimer last month but she's now 1-20 and others are more convincing. |

Fair third of six at Hamilton two starts ago but that's as good as she's been this year and she needs a bigger performance today. |

25th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |

Modest overall strike-rate and losing run goes back two years; recent form hadn't been too encouraging but she did keep on at one pace when third of six over 5f here yesterday. |
