14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won over C&D in 2023 and is well handicapped on some of last year's form; took step back in right direction when third of five at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in April but her run at Southwell a fortnight later was disappointing and she takes on a couple of in-form mares here. |

Not firing on all cylinders since returning in the autumn from a break but took step back in right direction when close third of five at Fakenham (2m7f, good) last month and remains well handicapped on last spring's form. |

7th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Well handicapped on some of last year's placed form for Ben Pauling but has not been firing on all cylinders for a while and is now 0-16 over hurdles; seems best on good ground but handles good to soft. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-18 since making winning debut in a Warwick bumper (September 2021); back from a 174-day absence when fifth of seven in a Class 5 handicap at Plumpton (3m1f, good; beaten 15l) latest; others are more likely candidates. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
0-14 over hurdles; returned from layoff with pretty good fourth at Cartmel (2m6f, good) in May but three lesser efforts have followed and she doesn't always look enthusiastic; headgear switched again today. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
0-13 over hurdles; kept on for fourth here (2m6f, good) in May, after a layoff, but two lesser efforts have followed and she doesn't always look enthusiastic; needs to be perked up by change of headgear. |

16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Kept on for fourth at Cartmel (2m6f, good) in May, after a layoff, and may not have been suited by the soft ground when below form there last month but she's 0-12 over hurdles now and doesn't always look enthusiastic. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Took this prize in 2024 but was having only her second run over fences when beating just one in 3m2f handicap here in May; now returns to hurdling after a short break and has claims if she can bounce back. |

14th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Bumper winner who was off the mark over hurdles here last July; there wasn't much wrong with her chase debut here (2m5f, soft) in September and she should go on from that following a good comeback against an in-form rival in a Chepstow hurdle (2m7f, good) last month. |

17th Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
After knocking chasing on the head she returned to hurdles with a staying-on third at Huntingdon (3m1f, good), narrowly denying Sadie Hill for that prize; that was after 130 days away so entitled to be sharper for this. |
11/2 |

3rd 6 |
11th May 2023 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Not persevered with over fences; poor final hurdles outing of last summer to forgive as well, but interesting on the form of two seconds in fields of this size off up to 7lb higher before that (best RPR 99). |
12/1 |

27th Apr 2023 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Nine-race maiden who was pulled up over fences in January when last seen but she's well handicapped on her best hurdle form, including a second in a big-field handicap at Worcester (2m7f, good) last summer; one to keep an eye on back over hurdles on her return; equipment (tried last time) removed. |

17th Jun 2023 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Lightly raced but well held in two handicaps, the latest a 2m1f seller; unraced beyond that trip and there's stamina in the pedigree, so could show more this time. |

31st May 2023 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Unexposed after only four hurdle runs but was tailed off when 22-1 for recent handicap debut; needs combination of better ground and first-time cheekpieces to enable significant improvement here. |

12th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |

Unexposed mare who posted her most encouraging of three qualifying runs when sixth at Stratford (2m, good to soft) last month; should have further improvement to come; one to consider. |

Soundly beaten on all three starts for new stable this year and now 0-11 over hurdles; not written off just yet but could be considered only if lively in the betting; tongue-tie (worn for last two races) left off. |

She's 7lb lower than when winning at Ffos Las in April 2023 for Alastair Ralph but that's her sole win from 17 rules attempts and she's been absent since tailing off at Fakenham last April; makes stable debut. |
