11st 11lb |
Won Stratford maiden (2m, good to soft) in April and has form claims on other efforts last season; out of sorts in a hood of late but well treated now and a revival is on the cards back at 2m with headgear left off. |

12st 0lb |
Favourite when winning a maiden for mares at Stratford (2m, good to soft) in April; both her handicap runs since were respectable, wearing first-time hood on latest; there's more to be proved with this step back up in trip but she makes more appeal than the big majority of these. |

20th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Made all at Southwell last May and Stratford in October, so carries a double penalty today; both were on soft ground but she does have some form on good and good to firm; appearances at about 2m4f may help to explain the two heavy defeats among her last four starts; a leading form contender. |
7/4 |

6th 1 |
26th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won on handicap debut at Stratford (extended 2m2f, soft) in October then bounced back from lesser run at Sandown to finish second at Newcastle (2m1f, soft) last time; didn't see out 2m4f on heavy ground at Sandown but may have the necessary stamina for today's assignment; key player if so. |

28th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 4 |

Consistent sort who won on her handicap debut at Stratford (2m2f, soft) in October and faded when fourth at Sandown (2m4f, heavy) last month; retains potential now back down in trip and could have a say. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Exposed mare who was winning her first handicap when a clearcut winner at Bangor (2m, good); effectively off the same mark with William Maggs' claim erasing the 5lb rise and shouldn't be too inconvenienced should it get wet. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Still just a Ludlow novice win on her CV (2m, good); cheekpieces haven't provoked any major improvement but she continues in fair heart, finding only one completing a hat-trick too good for her at Cartmel latest. |

24th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Fairly consistent in handicaps since her Ludlow novice win (2m, good) just over a year ago; drops back in trip after perfectly respectable second at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) last month and probably won't be far away. |

Has shown hurdling ability but finished well down the field when fitted with cheekpieces for last month's handicap debut and refused to race on her latest appearance 11 days ago (no headgear); others look much less risky. |

19th Aug 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Bumper winner in May 2023 (2m, good); fourth of 11 in a Stratford maiden hurdle in April (2m, good); disappointing since, including with cheekpieces tried last time; no headgear; plenty to prove. |

Dropped 26lb in the weights in six runs for new stable since February; perhaps the addition of blinkers will help but she's not a solid option in her current form. |

Sole win came for Richard Hughes in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f; 11-8 favourite) in July 2023; hasn't offered much in five starts - over a range of distances (1m-1m4f) - for this yard; competes from an easing mark. |

Novice winner here (9.5f) for Richard Hughes in the summer of 2023, but has shown little since returning for this yard in February; the outside stall won't help his cause either. |

Fell at the first when hooded on penultimate start, now tries blinkers; two rivals pulled up on latest start but she was the last of those to finish, which was also the case in her other three completions; has an extremely low opening mark for one from this stable, even from 4lb wrong. |
