14th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Reportedly treated for ulcers before displaying much-improved form to win a 3m Ludlow handicap by 11l (soft; 7lb lower); perhaps heavy ground didn't suit when tailed off at Exeter; better expected this time, for all that further suits her well. |

1st Jan 2024 Soft 2m 5f 137y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Placed twice in the autumn (2m7f/3m) and took form to whole new level when scoring by 11l from 7lb out of the handicap at Ludlow (3m, soft) last month, having reportedly been treated for ulcers; effectively 8lb higher here; interesting to see whether she can build on that performance. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Posted best effort of her 2025-26 campaign when neck second, clear of the remainder, at Stratford (2m3f, good) last time; appears capable of going one better, having recorded sole chase success (November 2024) off current mark. |

On a losing sequence and she came in a below-par fourth of eight in 2m4f Ludlow handicap chase last month; needs to take a step forward. |

10st 9lb |
Handicaps on last three starts, on last two occasions taking minor honours at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) and Ludlow (3m, soft); respected for that but needs to find a bit extra. |

Has something to prove on ground this soft but having only his seventh run when finishing strongly to be close up at Market Rasen (2m7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; couldn't rule out. |

In second place when falling four out at Warwick (3m5f) last month; opened his chase account with a 5l win over C&D (soft) the time before and that form has been boosted since; respected. |

Runner-up at Stratford in July (3m2f, good) but remains a maiden and he soon capitulated after a mistake three out at Fontwell a month ago; blinkers go on for cheekpieces. |

Beaten in six handicaps from 2m3f to 3m and latest 10l defeat here is the closest he's been; not without hope if he can find something on that off an ever-reducing mark. |

Has a modicum of ability but was pulled up off her lowly mark in a handicap chase two weeks ago and is now 0-23 under rules; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Six-time hurdle winner who stays well and is usually ridden very patiently; well beaten on both appearances this season and not seen over fences since two unconvincing attempts in January 2020; given a good chance by the handicapper but still looks risky. |
14/1 |

14th Jun 2024 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Gained three of his six hurdling wins over C&D; pulled up ten days ago, after a break, and won't be favoured by the forecast rain here but is too well handicapped to rule out and the return to this track is an obvious plus; usually ridden very patiently. |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Placed on last two starts, though was some 23l and 11l behind the winners (tried a visor last time); still needs a second look with him back in some sort of form and he goes well in the mud. |

10th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |

2-14 over hurdles; suited by this C&D but absent since a below-par run in April and others in this line-up have much more potential. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |

Pulled up behind Hardy Buck at Fakenham around Christmas, but a solid recent first outing since took his C&D record to 323, including a neck second in this race last year from further out of the weights. |

Went close off a similar mark over C&D just under a year ago but only one effort of note since then; now 0-21 under rules and not the percentage call. |
