31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In good form when last seen on the Flat, going down narrowly over 1m3f at Southwell last March, and successful three times over hurdles since; however, she ran poorly in that sphere in November and has stamina to prove on her return to the AW. |

11st 6lb |
Four and three-runner races when she won over 2m here in April and May; came up well short, however, in her hat-trick bid when 5-4 favourite at Warwick nearly six weeks ago, which dents her claims. |

1st Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Came from off the pace to win on the other course here (1m, good) in May and showed she's tactically versatile with a comfortable all-the-way success at Sandown (1m2f, good; beat Serengeti Sunset) two weeks ago; this in-form filly may have even more to offer; shortlisted. |

16th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt with a 22-1 win at Newmarket (1m, good) last month; again ran on from off the pace when respectable fourth of 13 at Leicester (1m, good to firm) 11 days later, having too much to do; that gave hope for this new trip but she did not help her cause by hanging. |

Off the mark at the ninth attempt with a 22-1 win at Newmarket (1m, good) 11 days ago; up 4lb but she stayed on strongly to beat the favourite last time and is still unexposed at this trip; respected. |

9st 6lb |
Won over this trip at Pontefract (her only start at 1m) last April and added to her good record in testing conditions when comfortably making all at Nottingham (also heavy, 1m2f) last autumn; probably needs a downpour, which isn't forecast. |

4th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Fairly useful 1m2f handicapper; won at Yarmouth in July and mostly consistent otherwise this term; remains on career-high mark, however, and this longer distance is an unknown. |

Doubled his winning tally when easily disposing of three rivals from the front under Joe Bradnam in an apprentice event at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) seven days ago; still 4lb well in despite a 2lb rise, but ground softer than good would pose a question. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |

Hurdle/Flat winner; wasn't at his best on the Flat following a break at Catterick last month but should come on for the run; conditions fine; quite interesting on chase debut. |

Pulled up over hurdles in October but he won off today's mark at Hamilton (1m5f, good) last summer and can go well fresh; a possible. |

Ex-Martin Dunne, winning for him at Yarmouth in May (11.5f, good); missed the break and pulled too hard on stable debut at Windsor last time (11.4f, good to firm; first run after a break); should be better for that run |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Failed to complete two of his three chases in the autumn and now reverts to hurdling after a break; suited by this C&D and only 1lb above his last winning mark but entitled to benefit from this outing. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Dual Flat and dual hurdle winner, with latest success gained here (2m, good) in July; not bred for chasing but held every chance before penultimate-fence mishap at Kelso (2m1f, good) last month and is dropped in grade here. |

Two-time Flat winner who has been in good form over hurdles this summer, winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) two months ago; this 5yo is a major player if taking to fences at the first attempt. |

1st Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Six-race maiden; ran creditably in first-time cheekpieces at Sandown most recently, finishing 3l second to Zara's Return; gets a 6lb pull with that rival and has possibilities in the retained headgear. |
5/1 |

2nd 6 (5) |
16th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; well beaten at Beverley (1m2f; caught out wide) on handicap debut; creditable third of 13 at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) eight days ago, staying on from the rear, puts him in the picture but gives him 4l to find on runner-up Penzance; cheekpieces enlisted. |

Off the mark at the eighth attempt in a 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton (AW) last November but didn't shape with obvious short-term encouragement on his Newbury reappearance in July. |

11th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Off the mark at the eighth attempt in a 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton last November, which was last-gasp stuff; only fifth next time at Kempton with no excuses; lacks a recent run and the yard is struggling for winners. |
