11st 0lb |
Defied top weight in Class 4 handicap at Market Rasen last time, taking chase record to 3-6; she's 2-2 at Perth but this looks a difficult task; first run beyond 2m5f under rules. |

16th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Winner of a Listed bumper here; has won only a maiden and two handicaps over hurdles but she ran well against male opposition in a Grade 2 at Kempton 19 days ago despite racing freely, as is her way; this bigger field will suit but she looks up against it on the figures and she seems ideally suited by good ground. |
33/1 |

2nd 6 |
25th Feb 2023 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Did well in bumpers last term and registered a hat-trick over hurdles (Plumpton, Fakenham and Ludlow) in the autumn, the last two legs of which were in handicaps; while she did not come near to justifying favouritism in Cheltenham handicap 11 weeks ago when last seen, she was not discredited; this test could suit and she's one to consider. |

9th Dec 2022 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
Progressive mare whose recent hat-trick came at sharp tracks but she handles Cheltenham, having performed well in two good-ground bumpers here (including Listed win) last term; respected under 7lb penalty for last week's ready success at Ludlow; future mark 1lb higher. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Decent hurdler (2l last of four in handicap at Market Rasen last month); fair run when 3l seventh of 12 over C&D on latest AW start (September 2025); place chance. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
5-13 over hurdles, including back-to-back wins for Fern O'Brien at Ludlow and Huntingdon (both 2m) last October/November; fresh and keen on recent comeback run at Warwick (2m, good; sixth of seven, beaten nearly 15l); this Class 4 looks a better fit, assuming the rain stays away. |
11/4 |
|
6th 1 |
20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Has a strike rate of 5-12 over hurdles but hasn't been seen since a below-par third at Ludlow in December; needs to raise her game to new heights having never won off a mark this high, but still commands respect. |

10st 12lb |
Not totally disgraced when fifth of eight on hurdle debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in July but beaten a very long way at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) on Saturday; best watched for now. |

Multiple 7f/1m winner down the years; stays this trip but she has plenty to prove starting out for a new stable after a 755-day absence. |
