10th May 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Won four in a row over 2m-2m2f last July-September and the last of those was here (3lb higher today); very reliable overall and had excuses (1m4f and 204 days off) 19 days ago; each-way contender. |

Won four in a row (one here) over 2m-2m2f last July-September and looks effective on any going; very reliable overall but absent 204 days and she does have a little to prove both first time out and dropped back in trip. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Made it 4-6 in handicaps when drawing 27l clear at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft; 10lb higher today) in August, making most in an amateurs' race; failed to replicate that form under a penalty on good ground one week later but he stays at least 2m and a return to soft ground would presumably be a big help. |

Made it 4-6 in handicaps when sauntering to a 27l success last week at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft); probably handled conditions better than his rivals but he's clearly well-in with just a 5lb penalty. |

8th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 6 |

Should be well handicapped and has run well in defeat with cheekpieces added (joining regular tongue-tie) in last two races, behind Laravie in the penultimate one; surprising to see the blinkers back on. |

Solid effort when second of eight at Catterick ten days ago (2m, good; first run in this combination of accessories); should remain competitive. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |

The odd sign of spark last season and he may have needed his recent comeback run; down to a dangerous mark but this 7yo has been regressive and is winless since July 2024; cheekpieces return for first time since last May. |

Scored at Southwell (1m4f) in March but only ninth of 11 in handicap over C&D ten days ago; not proving the easiest to catch right of late. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Easily landed an amateur riders' event at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in March and wasn't beaten far into fourth of 12 in a similar contest at Ripon (1m4f, good) last time, but he still needs more in order to come out best here. |

Sole turf win in this race last year; in reasonable form on AW at Southwell in the spring but his first run since wind surgery, on Newcastle AW, was a poor effort. |

8st 7lb |
Won a soft-ground maiden but best efforts when it's not so deep; 0-10 this season, nearly winning at Musselburgh in August but beaten over 20l on last two outings; down the weights but it's hard to have confidence in her. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |

Switched to front-running this year, including with Tapeta wins over 1m4f here in March and 2m at Southwell in April when last seen; that's career-best AW form but this race is a much higher grade and should be much harder to boss. |

5th Dec 2023 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Yet to win this year but there has been a recent upturn in her form, and she would probably have preferred a stronger pace to aim at when a staying-on second behind Fair Dinkum over C&D last month; up in grade today but has the services of Oisin Murphy; shortlisted. |
