21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Took her Chepstow record to 2-4 when seeing off five rivals over 1m2f last July but her form dipped at the end of the year; races over short of 1m for the first time in five years on her reappearance and a watching brief is the call despite her good record here. |

Career win number six at Chepstow in July (1m2f, good) but levels have dipped the last twice; on a handy mark if she can get herself back on track. |

Boasts a good record here (1m2f winner last month off 4lb lower) and will be happier back down in class having hung right at Windsor last time; this trip's a bare minimum now, unless the ground eases (seems unlikely), but the big field will help. |

8th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |

Mixed record for new yard this year but he went close off a reduced mark over 1m2f here on penultimate outing; not so good over that same C&D 17 days later but overdid it up front that day and remains well treated on old form; ran creditably in one of his four attempts at 1m4f. |

11st 2lb |
Two of his six wins have come over C&D; can go well fresh so his low-key return to action at Yarmouth last month was disappointing; down in class and has the assistance of Henry Callan in the saddle so he could leave that well behind. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who had irregular form in 2025 but he only just failed on his reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last spring and he's 4lb lower now; on the cards that he'll return with a good effort. |

Three consecutive wins over hurdles in May/June (2m-2m7f, good/good to soft) and he was running okay in that sphere last month; however, he has something to find in today's company and he didn't improve for the switch to fences when soundly beaten in January on his sole previous chase start. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Came up rather short in higher grade last time; solid record (1112) in Class 4 otherwise this term, albeit has shot up the weights as a result; may be in the assessor's grip now. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 3 |

It took a return to selling level to regain the winning thread in May but has since gone 112 in 2m4f/2m7f handicaps; getting high in the weights (nudged up another 1lb) but he's pretty solid. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up twice in February (including C&D on soft) before making it 14th time lucky over hurdles in 2m4f Sedgefield handicap (good) last month; he and the runner-up came well clear of the third so he should competitive off 6lb higher. |

0-13 over hurdles and becoming rather frustrating but came second twice over 2m3f last month (soft/good to soft) and seems very likely to be in the shake-up again here. |

2nd 4 |
24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Last Flat win came in November 2023 and he's 0-12 over hurdles; however, he ran well when second off this reduced mark at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last Monday and can be in the mix if backing that up. |
