0-6 on AW; below-par fourth (behind Falesia Beach and Queen Of Burgundy) here 27 days ago; however, went very close over C&D (off this mark) earlier in December and has possibilities if reproducing that form. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has struggled this year, coming 13lb down the weights, including back on to Tapeta latest; three turf wins came from the front (all in late summer) and there's other pace in here, leaving her hard to recommend. |
20/1 |
|
8th 11 (10) |
28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins when making the running at about 1m on turf, most recently 13 months ago; has dropped a fair way in the weights since low-key course runs at the end of 2022 but just muddling through back on turf since. |
20/1 |

6th 11 (2) |
29th Aug 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Currently 3-6 in August, 0-21 otherwise, but she turned in another ordinary effort last time behind Touchwood; well treated now but hard to recommend and Motarajel looks her trainer's best shot. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well treated on old form but last win was two years ago and she's not posed a threat in her three runs this season; now drops back into a Class 6 event but she needs to find some extra spark. |
12/1 |

7th 7 (3) |
2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

On a losing run but handicapped accordingly and she ran a creditable race when fourth at Wetherby last month (7f, good to firm); better could be forthcoming. |

Winless and modest on the Flat and she offered little fitted with cheekpieces on her first go over hurdles when seventh in 2m Huntingdon novice 12 days ago; others appeal more. |
50/1 |

7th 8 |
3rd Mar 2024 Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

Placed a few times on the Flat in 2022 (1m1f-1m3f) but returned from absence with two underwhelming runs in low-grade AW handicaps last month and is now 0-17; swaps blinkers for refitted cheekpieces on hurdle debut. |

6th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Returned from a break with creditable third of seven over 1m here last month but she's been below par twice since, latterly at Newcastle only five days ago; others arrive with more pressing claims. |
7/1 |

7th 8 (2) |
1st Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Ran well in the Southwell contest won by Wild Side but raced too freely in the Wolverhampton event won by Nine Tenths; not sure to what to expect in first-time cheekpieces (replacing usual hood). |

8th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has refused to race three times this year, twice at this track including behind several of these rivals on latest appearance (favourite); she was in a good mood when winning over C&D three days before that but there's no guarantee she'll be in the same frame of mind. |
7/1 |

3rd Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Has refused to race a couple of times this year and has had other moments at the stalls, but she was in a good mood when winning over C&D on Tuesday; holds leading claims under penalty if in the same frame of mind. |

1st 4 (11) |
31st Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Four-time course winner including in this race last year for another trainer; has refused to race on a couple of occasions, but 2lb below her last winning mark and ran even better than it may have looked when fourth of 11 back here (7f) last month; comes with risks attached, but capable if things fall right. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Never figured on turf last time (1m) but wasn't far away over 7f here the time before; does stay this far, for all that she's rarely seen over a mile these days. |
20/1 |

7th 5 (1) |
15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Denied clear run before keeping on well for fifth (just behind Clear Angel) at Haydock (1m, good) last month and again ran well when third at Southwell (7f, AW) a fortnight ago; continues to edge down the weights; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Denied a clear run when fifth over 1m at Haydock a fortnight ago and has returned to the mark she scored from over 6f at Newcastle in February; also has winning form here; another who has to enter the reckoning. |
