19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdles winner whose form slumped in Britain last winter; low-key stable debut at Listowel in June was followed by a fall at Killarney; never in the hunt at Listowel festival; trainer appears to have a better chance with Meehall. |

11st 13lb |
Ran okay over fences before returning to hurdles with the cheekpieces back on and going close in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (soft); another big run looks on the cards off just 2lb higher. |

9th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Failed to offer much in two chase runs last season and again struggled back over hurdles; steadied the ship when back over fences at Haydock (3m1f, soft) but not many completed and her jumping became iffy in the closing stages; others preferred. |

30th Dec 2024 Heavy 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Failed to shine on her two chase starts last season and pulled up on reappearance over hurdles; however, this lightly raced 8yo looked good when winning a novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (2m6f, heavy) last December and she may be the latest Venetia Williams runner to excel on testing ground at Haydock. |

11st 7lb |
Bagged a pair of 2m4f Southwell handicaps last spring and has continued in good nick, second of 12 back there 25 days ago; she ought to be in the shake-up again. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner in March 2024; those were on soft ground but she's fine on good and was twice runner-up before appearing not to stay 3m here in April; should run well. |

12st 0lb |
Defied a 4lb higher mark over hurdles at Exeter last February; has failed to repeat the form since but this drop in class may prompt a resurgent display; third chase attempt. |

6th Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
8l winner at Exeter (2m, heavy) last February in her first handicap but beaten at least 20l in her three starts since, the latest when switched to fences on reappearance three weeks ago; returns to her winning mark but needs a return to that sort of form. |

Won first two starts over hurdles last year on heavy ground for Donald McCain; disappointing in two chases for this yard and now returns to hurdling in blinkers. |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 110y |
11st 4lb |
Point-to-point winner won first two starts over hurdles last year on heavy ground for Donald McCain; no impact in two chase starts for that stable on quicker ground and similarly on recent yard debut at Tipperary; hard to fancy. |

6th Apr 2024 Heavy 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Below her best on last three appearances, though a reluctance to settle (often the case) was never going to help when upped to nearly 3m the last time; she did win at Fakenham in November (7lb lower) on her last race at about this trip and heavy ground is fine. |
