3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Won by a nose when dropped to Listed grade at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm; evens) on latest outing; has otherwise spent the last two years at 1m6f-2m, including a Group 3 win last May before two Group 2 seconds, including with a remote view of Sumo Sam in this race; place contender again. |

9st 2lb |
Campaigned at 1m6f-2m since August 2022; respectable third at York on seasonal debut when bidding for a second success in the Bronte Cup (Group 3); has Group 2 form too; leading player provided she's as effective back down in distance. |

20th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Losing spell goes back to her 2yo win but she couldn't have gone much closer to putting that right in Listed race at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago, going down by a nose (reopposing Divina Grace was third); claims if in similar form but she does have a bit of an in-and-out profile. |

31st May 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Took her form to a new level with a game success in Newbury Group 3 on stable/seasonal debut; not so good front-running in a four-runner Group 2 at Newmarket (also 1m4f on good) three weeks later; player if reverting to the Newbury form but her three attempts at this sort of trip (summer 2023) were not as good as that year's runs at 1m4f. |

Useful for Rae Guest; took her form to a new level with a game success in Newbury Group 3 on stable/seasonal debut, taking record to 6-21; faces a stiffer task in this grade but may rate higher still and she's the sole C&D winner in the field; very hard to dismiss. |

33-1 fourth in this contest last year; absent until well held at Goodwood two weeks ago; may be back in better form with that reappearance effort under her belt. |

9th Jun 2024 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Sole win from nine starts was Bath novice in 2022; best form came in a Listed race last June when last seen but that Pontefract fourth (1m4f) leaves her with major improvement to find; trainer won this in 2015, 2016, 2022 and 2023 but seems to have a much stronger chance with Aimeric this time. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive last year, with Listed win at York's Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm), and after reappearing with a Listed second at Goodwood (1m4f, good) she went one better in the Group 3 Bronte Cup at York (1m6f, good); vulnerable if Estrange is at the top of her game but she's the stand-out danger. |

31st May 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |

Peak performance when impressive winner of Listed race at the York Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm) last August but she ran respectably in 14.5f Group 2 next time and when second in a 1m4f Listed race (ahead of Sueno and Allonsy) on reappearance; one of the top contenders on form. |

Solid performance in Haydock handicap (1m2f, soft) last month on second start for new stable, beating Doha who gave the form a big boost when winning at Royal Ascot on Wednesday; has won on good to firm; may be capable of further progress, provided she stays this new trip. |

Ran seven times (in these colours) for the Gosdens, winning twice (1m/1m2f, good to firm/soft); soundly beaten fourth of six on stable and seasonal debut at Redcar (1m2f, soft) three weeks ago but may have needed the run and is not ruled out in a first-time tongue-tie. |

14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Useful mare who won three times on soft ground last year; often highly tried this year but creditable fourth back in a handicap at Haydock (1m2f, good to soft) last week; reasons to think she'll run well but Stressfree is still the more appealing of the yard's pair. |

14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 7f 196y Class 2 |

Three 1m5f/1m4f handicap wins when making most last year; easily her most competitive show this term when never-nearer second at Killarney (extended 1m6f, yielding to soft) last time; that's the furthest she's been on the Flat and gives hope for this longer trip; acts on heavy; one to consider. |
