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. |

8th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Completed a hat-trick over hurdles for this yard in October 2022 and second leg was over C&D (good to firm); placed several times on the Flat since and she returned from long absence with respectable effort at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) last month; that was her first run since rejoining Fergal O'Brien and she looks interesting off dangerous mark back over hurdles. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Completed a hat-trick over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien in October 2022 and returns to her former trainer after 15 months off having been placed in five of her last six starts on the Flat (0-18) for Ralph Smith; the market should indicate what is expected. |

12th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won two in a row last June (2m) and he's much better than he showed in the Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen (2m) in July last time; unraced on worse than good to soft and unproven beyond 2m1f, having pulled hard when tailed off in 2022 on one attempt at an extended 2m2f. |

3rd Nov 2024 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won off 3lb higher for Milton Harris 13 months ago (2m1f) but, following a spell with Sylvester Kirk, was well beaten on last month's stable debut (2m); has a lot to prove on this first venture beyond about 2m4f. |

10st 8lb |
Now only 1lb higher than when scoring at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) for Milton Harris a year ago but both recent runs for Sylvester Kirk were disappointing and he needs to have been perked up by latest stable switch; cheekpieces refitted. |

Four-times winning hurdler making a belated debut over fences after six-month break; hard to fancy unless there is a move in the market. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
3-6 since returning from long absence for new stable this spring; only fourth off today's mark at Worcester (2m, good) last month but possibly had a bit too much use made of him there; remains very much of interest. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won in May on first two starts for this yard (2m, good) and back to winning ways at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) four weeks ago; did it readily last time and a 7lb rise may not stop him today. |

Record of 0-5 since switched to fences but turn looks near, having finished second at Wetherby and Newbury the last twice; however, needs some improvement to go one better in this stronger grade. |

Not prolific but his win came on Tapeta and he has dropped a long way in the weights; no surprise to see him go well and looks the pick of Tony Carroll's three runners. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
All four wins at about this trip in 2023, including over C&D; not totally clear whether she's still the same mare since back from an absence but she gave Moon Over The Sea some grief at Windsor (about 1m3f, good to firm) on her recent return to turf and has another good run in her. |

Winless since 2023 but she comes here in decent nick, fifth of 12 in 1m4f classified event at Lingfield in March; possibilities. |

C&D winner who enjoyed a productive 2023; losing run up to 18, but she was placed in a handicap over C&D last month and has each-way claims again. |
