19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Both wins over hurdles came at Fontwell; having just her second go over fences when solid sixth in well-contested mares' handicap at Cheltenham (about 2m4f, good to soft) in December; disappointed at Huntingdon over further next time but had wind surgery shortly afterwards and might be worth another chance dropped back in trip. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Almost denied Easy To Follow in a heavy-ground hurdle once, but best figures win or lose have been returned on no worse than the good to soft of last month's tidy 5l sixth in a Cheltenham mares' 0-125; still early days for her as a chaser, appears to jump fine and holds strong claims. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 130y |
10st 11lb |
Got his fifth hurdles win when beating subsequent Galway festival winner Winning Smut at Killarney in July (2m7f, yielding to soft); beaten 25l apiece in his two chase starts; makes handicap chase debut and chance on his best hurdles form but hasn't shown that yet over fences. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Dual 2m5f course winner in early part of last season; returned from five-month break with low-key run here 18 days ago but is versatile regarding ground and his current mark is workable; can feature if that recent outing brought him on. |
7/1 |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
All of his three victories have been at Fontwell including two chase wins over an extended 2m5f (good to soft); beaten 9l when runner-up here in December but that was behind an improver and he's still lightly raced in this sphere; respected back in trip on his return. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Course hurdle winner last summer (2m1f, good), having made most of the running; held up in rear and never looked dangerous when fourth of six on last month's chasing debut at Stratford (2m3f, good) but that was his first run since the autumn and a return to more positive tactics might show him in a better light here. |

Won back-to-back handicaps two winters ago, over 2m3f at Plumpton and 2m5f here; goes well on softer but the ground was good when not beaten far over 2m5f here last time; there are some stamina reservations over this far. |

Close second here (2m5f, good) for Alexandra Dunn last September; struggled on next two appearances and was always behind when reappearing for new stable over C&D last month but might revert to more positive tactics in first-time cheekpieces today and is one to keep an eye on in the betting. |
