17th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
On workable mark if judged on pick of form from first half of last year but returned from break with disappointing run in the autumn and has been absent for another 285 days since. |

5th Nov 2024 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Has won on good to soft; losing turf run goes back more than a year but she ran up to her recent best when second of 14 at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in June; needs to be on song to win off this mark back from break. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Ended her 2025 campaign with an August win but hasn't been in anything like the same form since returning to action and is the most exposed, as well as the oldest, contender in this field. |
33/1 |

4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Would have needed her Pontefract reappearance after eight months off, but she has never won off a mark this high and tends to come to life later in the year. |

13th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time turf winner; 0-12 on AW but went close off 8lb higher over C&D in May; has a fighting chance if back to that form. |

7th Sep 2023 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time fast-ground winner, including twice in the month of September, who's slid to a handy mark; has to improve a deal on recent efforts but will be happier back on turf and can do better. |

28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made all in a four-runner affair at Leicester (1m4f, Class 5; good to firm) last month, but couldn't repeat those tactics from this revised mark at Haydock; lacks the proven AW prowess held by most of these rivals, which serves to make her even more vulnerable. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
7th Sep 2023 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Trainer won this last year and has every chance of following up with this half-sister to several winners, who's improved since upped to 1m4f/handicapping; made all off 4lb lower last time and may well be able to get her own way if that's the plan again. |
7/4 |

1st 4 (1) |
23rd Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Upped to 1m4f for handicap debut and that produced a more competitive show when third of eight at Salisbury (good) late last month, coming from last 3f out; needs another step forward but has more to offer at 1m4f+. |

27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won off a 6lb higher mark over this far at Thirsk last summer (good to firm); muddling pace was no help when fourth of the five runners on return to Flat action at Haydock (1m3f, good; after a wind op) but she didn't run badly; hard to dismiss. |
25/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
4th Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
5lb lower than for her sole success at Thirsk (1m4f, good to firm) a year ago; back on the Flat after two modest efforts over hurdles and has undergone wind surgery, but she wasn't showing much when last seen on the level. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 88y |
11st 6lb |
Placed form in maidens and in Ballinrobe handicap for Andrew McNamara and likes good ground; after long absence, tailed off over 2m4f here on yard debut. |
25/1 |
|
15th 6 |
17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |
11st 8lb |
Two-time Flat winner ran well over hurdles at Ballinrobe last May but disappointed in three runs since and has been off since last July; likely best watched on first start for new stable. |
22/1 |
|
10th 14 |
25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 10lb |
Reserve; dual Flat winner, though was last in that discipline 17 days ago; tailed off the time before over hurdles but a repeat of her third at Ballinrobe would see her competitive. |
