15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Better over fences than hurdles, notching back-to-back Musselburgh chase wins (2m4f) last November/December; tough task in Carlisle Class 2 (beaten 38l) when last seen 146 days ago; this should bring her on with a return to fences (rated 5lb higher) likely. |

Didn't have a good strike-rate over hurdles or fences but then went back-to-back in 2m4f handicap chases on good to soft at Musselburgh late last year; 5lb higher than for that latest 5l success and her subsequent defeat was over hurdles; chance. |

Wins a Musselburgh (2m4f) the last twice took her chase record to 3-10; only 1-22 over hurdles and has to deal with a career-high mark back in this sphere. |

Tried hard to justify favourite's tag in a beginners chase here latest; good second also here on last start over hurdles; tongue-tie won't need to bring about a whole lot of improvement in order for her to add to sole win (2021); should give another good account. |
