19th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 10y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Returned from break with wide-margin win in three-runner contest at Wincanton (3m, good) last month; the value of that form is open to question (leader crashed through rail and ran out in home straight) but she remains unexposed over this sort of trip and the handicapper has been pragmatic in raising her 4lb. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Flat/hurdle winner; headed to Kempton last time unproven over this far but saw it out fine to finish third of the nine runners (on good ground); solid chance off 1lb higher. |
9/4 |

3rd 2 |
18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won a Flat handicap (1m6f, soft) and a novice hurdle (2m1f, good) last autumn; mixed record under both codes since then but she's been highly tried in last four hurdle runs and was third in a Listed race at Taunton last December; now returns to jumping after a short break and needs watching in market on handicap hurdle debut; tongue-tie added. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Landed valuable series final for mares at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in March but was just a respectable third of five at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) last month and needs subsequent wind surgery to help her kick on again. |

9th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |

Went up 10lb for winning by 8l at Kelso in March and finished well beaten next time at Uttoxeter; could be on a harsh mark now and would prefer drier ground. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Took form to whole new level when winning valuable series final by 8l at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in March and is now 3-6 over hurdles; returns from 127-day break on 10lb higher mark but good ground also suits; shortlisted. |

Chasing the last twice and well held; pulled up in her only previous handicap over hurdles but should be on a competitive mark judged on novice form. |

31st May 2025 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Low-mileage mare who beat Mary in a Southwell novice hurdle (2m, good) in the autumn; pulled up on handicap hurdle debut the following month (bled from the nose) but ran well for a long way on recent chasing debut and could still have significant potential over fences. |

8th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Came good over hurdles over C&D (good to soft) in April and ran well in defeat off today's mark at Stratford (2m2f, good) on latest outing in July; probably won't be far away. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |

Bumper winner for Gordon Elliott (2m, good); off the mark over hurdles in a 2m5f Ludlow novice handicap in April (good to soft) but has been a bit disappointing since. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
3l ahead of Rockola when obliging at Ludlow in April (2m5f, good to soft); last-time 15l Aintree fourth off 4lb higher represents her best ever form effort going left-handed, but needs more again here. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Couldn't fault her momentum last year, rising from a mark of 88 at Uttoxeter in July to 102 when scoring readily at Hexham (2m, good to soft) in October; found life tougher in better races (Wetherby and Cheltenham) thereafter; this is equally tough, but she could strip fitter for C&D comeback run. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Has won three races this season, the second over this C&D in September; up in the ratings and off since November; may be better for the run. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Better than ever since joining this stable, winning three of her last four races; easily beat four rivals at Hexham (2m, good to soft) four weeks ago and an 8lb rise should not stop her being competitive again. |

10st 12lb |
Absent since struggling to cope with 3m on heavy ground in January but made all under Elliott England at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in December and was placed on good ground in the autumn; no surprise if she features. |
6/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Dictated the pace and stuck on well in five-runner race at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in December, opening her account at the 15th attempt; creditable third of ten here (2m6f, heavy) three weeks ago when she made Sean Bowen work hard and Pipas Lescribaa was second, but there's a 3lb swing in the weights today and this new trip now looks well worth a go; each-way chance. |
5/1 |

2nd 6 |
18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
No wins in 12 but shouldn't be long in putting that right after keeping the favourite honest last time at Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft); Elliott England rides again off 2lb higher and solid chance. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up when making chase debut on heavy ground but runner-up twice on good ground since, latterly at Fontwell (2m3f) last month; gets another chance off the same mark here; obvious contender. |
13/8 |

2nd 7 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Had heavy ground as an excuse when pulled up on chase debut in February after nine months off and fared a lot better back on a sounder surface when second of six at Ludlow (2m4f, good) 25 days ago; her jumping was a bit iffy but is entitled to get better with experience; enters calculations. |

2nd 3 |
30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Competitive over hurdles last spring and heavy ground was a feasible excuse when pulled up on chase debut at Leicester in February after 281 days off (had lost position when sprawling at the 11th); can be given another chance. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a maiden hurdle on stable debut at Warwick (2m5f, good) in October and bounced back from a flop over fences when third of five in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) in January, when jumping to the right; the return to a right-handed track is a likely plus and she's high on the list. |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Showed zero enthusiasm for fences in two attempts, pulling up at Uttoxeter last month, but she might well recover quickly now back hurdling, as in a similar situation in the past; stays 3m2f on soft and has a good run in her off current mark; cheekpieces refitted. |
