9th Nov 2024 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when winning over C&D (good) in pretty good style in April but was pulled up the following month and has become quite tricky to predict; had wind op during six-month break. |

Inconsistent but she returned to form with a convincing win in first-time cheekpieces at Wincanton (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; she'll have no problem with the step up in trip; contender if the headgear maintains its effect. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Bumper/hurdle winner who is 0-9 over fences but she's had tough assignments in Listed events in last two runs; this is more realistic back in a handicap and she's well treated on her best form at up to 3m1f; could be dangerous. |
9/1 |

5th 4 |
14th Feb 2026 1m 7f 149y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner; has some place form over fences but she was a well-held fourth of five in a mares' Listed event at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft; 33-1) last month; this looks another tough assignment and she's not run over 2m for a long time; first-time visor replaces blinkers. |

14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper/hurdles winner; has some place form over fences but finished 10l behind Molto Bene at Huntingdon last time and is worse off with that rival at level weights upped up class; stiff assignment. |

19th Feb 2023 Good To Firm 3m 0f 52y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who won her point on soft ground and a maiden hurdle (2m6f) on good; had no obvious excuses when beaten 15l on handicap debut at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) but she's undergone wind surgery since then and steps up in trip; better expected. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Soft-ground point winner who won a maiden hurdle at Stratford (2m6f, good) in October on third rules start; remains unexposed but this handicap newcomer was disappointing at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft) last time. |
25/1 |

3rd 1 |
20th Nov 2022 Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 4 |

Scored comfortably at Stratford (2m6f, good; second attempt over hurdles) last month, adding to her soft-ground point win; from a good family and looks open to further progress; shortlisted. |

Had a near miss at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) but now has to bounce back from three lesser efforts; wears a first-time visor. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |

Has performed moderately the last twice but her near miss behind One Eye On Vegas at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) brings her into this; hard to be confident about her chances, though. |

Campaigned mostly over further (stays 2m6f); ran poorly last time, failing to back up her reappearance effort; 2-2 at Ffos Las but this drop back in trip presents a question mark. |

Has plenty to prove having been pulled up on both rules starts; however, it's possible the subsequent wind op will have been a big help and she won her sole Irish point; not a completely forlorn hope. |

20th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |

Bought for £16,000 soon after winning a soft-ground Irish point last December; 16-1 for her hurdling debut at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft) and she was pulled up after stopping quickly; best watched for now. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
8yo who made it 5-16 over fences when bouncing back with a clearcut win at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) two weeks ago; up 6lb but she hit a personal best last time and is a big player again if her stamina holds out on this step up 3m. |

1st 7 |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
4-15 over fences; gained a win at Chepstow (extended 2m3f, good) in October but hit with a 7lb rise and she's been well held on both outings this year, most recently trailing home last of three at Wincanton (2m, good) three weeks ago; only 2lb lower and now has plenty to prove. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 149y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
4-14 over fences; October's Chepstow win (2m3f, good) triggered this career-high mark, off which she was found wanting by some way at Kempton, admittedly in a useful handicap; this shorter trip is another slight query. |
9/2 |
