13th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Had rather mixed record over hurdles last season but her clearcut win at Leicester (2m4f, soft) in January was a good performance, and her Irish point dead-heat in 2021 bodes well for her prospects on this chasing debut; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft. |

18th Apr 2024 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Won with authority under Dylan Johnston at Leicester (2m4f, soft; five ran) in January on second start for this yard but has made two backward steps since; that latest came when tried at 3m, which sees the cheekpieces go on today and she's got a bit to prove. |

29th Dec 2022 Heavy 2m 2f 25y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Made very inauspicious start to hurdling career last season (once refused to race and once looked reluctant to jump off) but fared considerably better when placed in two 2m novice races in November (one here, both on soft); still comes with risk attached on this handicap debut, but she has the raw ability to be very competitive. |

Third in a point-to-point bumper in April 2021 but has shown more temperament than ability over hurdles (refused to race once and was reluctant to race last time); hard to fancy. |

16th May 2023 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
0-5 over hurdles but was second (albeit no match for winner) off 6lb higher at Ayr (2m5f, good) in March and her eased-down Irish point win in 2021 bodes well for her chasing prospects; not sure to benefit from today's drop back in trip but still makes appeal. |

Winning pointer; lost her way for former yard and never figured on debut for this one in a 2m3f handicap at Chepstow; others safer. |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |

Placed in two handicaps for Michael Scudamore (2m4f/2m6f) during 2022-23 season but absent since two disappointing runs at end of that campaign; market may guide before today's stable debut. |

14th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Consistent in her five runs last February-November, all over about 2m and second of five in a handicap at Hexham (heavy; acts on good) last time; needs extra to win but has place claims again. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Shot up 16lb for her back-to-back wins (2m3f/2m5f) and, although a bad mistake was no help when last to finish at Carlisle, it could be that the handicapper has caught up with her. |

8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Thriving mare who bids to compete a hat-trick after clear wins at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) this year; shooting up the weights but needs to be taken very seriously in current form. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won by 10l on reappearance here (2m4f, soft) in November and, after not staying 3m at Ayr, she bounced back with an easy, all-the-way win at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) 12 days ago; 8lb higher in a tougher race today but this progressive 8yo could still be ahead of the handicapper. |

16th Feb 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 5 |

Won a point-to-point bumper last February and is one to watch in the betting on this handicap debut; however, she's shown very little under rules and plenty of improvement is required. |
