1st Apr 2023 Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Clearcut winner at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) in the autumn but has struggled since, cheekpieces failing to have the desired effect at Market Rasen (2m7f; sixth of seven) on latest start; needs to rediscover her spark. |

12th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Kept on well for clear win on seasonal debut at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) in October but her next two runs were disappointing; needs combination of 82-day break and first-time cheekpieces to prompt a return to form. |

20th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Well on top at Bangor in October (2m3f, good to soft; 6lb lower) but she offered little resistance once headed at Warwick and dropped right out; likely contender if shrugging aside that disappointment and she stays this far. |

Ex-Irish mare who finished second on three of her four starts for Donald McCain last season (all in cheekpieces), most recently when going close in series final at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) last month; still unexposed over 3m; a possible if today's headgear switch has any beneficial effect. |

Still 4lb higher than when winning over 2m6f here (good to soft) last summer but did not run badly when seventh in competitive series final at Musselburgh last month and is sure to be suited by the return to this track; major player if stamina holds out (unraced beyond 2m7f). |

11st 6lb |
Record of 6-16 over fences; broke her Listed duck in Doncaster contest (2m4f) most recently, taking advantage of odds-on Brides Hill's below-par show; chance of following up partly depends on whether that opponent, who beat her by 6l in this event last year, is back on song. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
Two chase wins at about 2m4f in early 2024 (soft and good); has not found life easy this winter but 3m found her out on her latest start (first-time tongue-tie; cheekpieces now added) and the return to shorter on good ground should suit; bold bid likely. |

2nd 2 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |

Has won twice over fences, both over 2m4f; fair third in a mares' handicap at Ludlow last time (2m4f, soft); could go well but perhaps better at shorter. |

10yo whose losing sequence is up to 13 after disappointing run at Windsor (2m4f, soft) latest; however, she was runner-up on final two outings in 2025 (2m4f/3m1f, good to soft/soft) and might not be far away if back on song. |

Dual course winner, latterly off 3lb higher over C&D (soft) just under a year ago; out of form this season, though, and needs to turn a corner; wore cheekpieces the last twice; visor tried today. |

7th Feb 2024 Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Now back on same mark as for hard-fought win at Huntingdon (3m1f, soft) last March but dropped out of contention very tamely on final two starts last year (cheekpieces added last time) and comes here with a point to prove. |

19th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 7f 95y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Ended last season in good form, most notably when winning at Huntingdon (3m1f, soft); made a satisfactory reappearance last month but dropped out very quickly after making the running at Market Rasen on latest outing and needs to put that performance behind her; sports first-time cheekpieces. |

Three chase wins last season, the first two over C&D (good/good to soft); not beaten far when last of six at Cheltenham in April but remains on career-high mark for this reappearance run and takes on some unexposed rivals. |
