19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Completed a hat-trick in late 2024 (including a walkover) but has largely struggled off higher marks since and signed off for Olly Murphy with a couple of modest efforts, including in cheekpieces last time; 3lb lower than for his latest success but needs the change of scenery to spark a revival. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Still to get his head in front in this sphere but he comes here on the back of a fair fifth of eight in 3m1f handicap at Wincanton last time; this three-time hurdles scorer is in the mix with cheekpieces fitted for the first time. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Career-best RPR but not at all fluent when third at Wetherby in December (3m, soft), and lasted just two fences on sole run since; has neither trip nor ground issues and mark remains competitive, so just a case of whether he returns more fleet of foot following two months out. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Back to form in handicaps as recent figures would imply; did go up 7lb for the win at Hereford (2m3f, good) and only third next time, but has shown before that this mark is workable; likes to lead and this drop back in trip could work. |

3rd 1 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 1lb |
Back to form on last three starts (about 2m4f, variety of ground) and latest saw her get off the mark at 15th attempt, doing so by 9l from the front in a six-runner race at Hereford on Monday; carries 7lb penalty in a larger field but should have a huge shout as an in-form candidate against unpersuasive rivals. |

1st 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
14-race maiden but has returned to something near best on last two starts, finishing runner-up on both occasions, tried in a tongue-tie at Windsor (2m4f, good to soft) in November and without it at Plumpton (near 2m5f, soft) in February after a break; workable mark and should go well again. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Well held in a valuable Newbury bumper in March 2024 and beaten 38l and 47l in both starts over hurdles, most recently at Hereford (2m3.5f, good to soft) in November; lots more needed back from a 303-day absence. |

Well beaten (albeit in a valuable race) on last season's bumper debut and made just a mildly encouraging hurdle debut when remote third over C&D this month. |

6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Had wind surgery prior to posting one of her better efforts last time (2m4f) but isn't guaranteed to build on it, being an inconsistent maiden; again out of the weights. |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |

Struggled last May-August in her first four handicaps and 8lb wrong at the weights today; a transformation is needed following wind surgery. |

Well-beaten at triple-digit odds in three novice/maiden hurdles this autumn (2m-2m3f), having tended to race too freely; makes handicap debut from a lowly mark but still needs to take a big step forward. |
