11st 1lb |
Fair Flat form to win at Ffos Las (1m, good to soft) in August 2022 but most of his other eight races were modest form; left Tom Dascombe for 5,500gns that October and not seen since; wore cheekpieces last four starts but tongue-tie (worn earlier) now returns along with a first-time hood. |

2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Triple AW winner who was a respectable fourth in classified event at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last time, but that took her turf record to 0-12 and she still has stamina to prove at this trip. |
5/1 |

19th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lacks consistency on turf but goes well here and did better on her second run back from an absence behind two of these over C&D last time; is better off with both tonight, which brings her into the equation. |
7/1 |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Has run well on turf but her wins have come on the AW; ran poorly on her comeback from eight months off eight weeks ago (pulled hard after the blindfold was slow to come off for the second race on the spin) and has something to prove after that. |

Still a maiden after 17 starts and she was beaten 11l in a C&D handicap when last seen in October; makes no appeal after another break. |

Sole win came off 8lb higher last September but hasn't been shaping as if she's ready to take advantage of her reduced mark; has first-time cheekpieces added to her regular hood. |

6th 4 (2) |
24th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Sole win came over C&D off 7lb higher last September and better effort in defeat under same conditions the following month; ran better than it looked from a wide draw here 15 days ago and she could be poised to strike. |

6th 7 (12) |
9th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Now 6lb lower than when springing a surprise over C&D last autumn (sole win); hung left without the usual hood last time and should do better at this lower level but stall 12 isn't good for one happiest on the sharp end. |

10st 9lb |
Turned his attention to chasing fairly late in life but made a solid start when second of six at Wincanton in April; didn't back that up when never travelling at Hereford (also 2m, good) nine days ago and has a question to answer after that. |
16/1 |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, all at around 2m; made a belated switch to fences last month and shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up at Wincanton (2m, good), which also represented a return to some form; needs to back that up but he remains well treated and is one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 149y Class 5 |

Three-time Flat winner and successful four times over hurdles; however, hasn't been running all that well under either code following a year on the sidelines and this is a belated first attempt at chasing. |

Sprung a 25-1 surprise at Ffos Las in September (1m, good to soft), coming home 7l in front of her 11 rivals; well beaten in a Class 5 at Kempton since and she has something to prove now stepping up in distance in first-time cheekpieces. |

9st 1lb |
towards rear of midfield, steady headway from over 3f out, pushed along over 2f out, soon bit short of room and ridden, made challenge against near rail over 1f out, led and went clear inside final furlong, easily (trainer said, regarding the apparent improved form shown, that although a blood test taken after the filly's previous run showed raised levels of muscle enzymes, he could not be certain that this was the cause of the poor run. as such, he had no explanation for the filly's improved form) |

Last win came over C&D in January 2023; has failed to shine in his last two appearances, but did finish close behind Inexplicable at Wolverhampton (8.5f classified; 25-1 third) in January; needs to raise his game a fraction. |

Kept on well for third in basement-grade classified at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but finished well down the field in recent handicap over that C&D and may also find this race too competitive. |

10th 6 (10) |
2nd Mar 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Three-time C&D winner; ran well in classified event here three weeks ago and ties in with Inexplicable on that form; possibilities. |
