Game winner at Hexham (2m7f, good to soft) but then well held with no real excuses off this 6lb higher mark at Hexham (race won by Artic Mann); that was a backward step but the cheekpieces had been working well. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Veteran who has turned things around over fences recently, with a win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) followed by a second on similar ground at Plumpton (3m1f); now returns to hurdling but she's lightly raced in this sphere and looks interesting off the same mark as last time. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Out of sorts initially this season but she wasn't without her supporters when back to form and winning at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) two weeks ago, and the 5lb rise looks manageable in her follow-up bid; leading contender if in the same frame of mind. |
4/1 |

1st 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Triple point winner but she's 0-12 under rules and hasn't been running well this winter; hard to recommend unless transformed by the cheekpieces. |

Five-time hurdle winner (once over C&D); not quite as good as she once was but returned to form with good second over C&D (soft) last month and also ran well when fifth here (good to soft) 11 days ago; in the mix. |

27th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 5 |

Five-time hurdle winner (once over C&D); not quite as good as she once was but returned to form with good second over C&D (soft) this month and will also be suited by today's faster ground; major player. |

26th Dec 2022 Good To Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Runner-up at 66-1 on last month's reappearance at Newcastle but that performance stands out in her winless 13-race profile and she failed to threaten here next time (2m3f, soft); the percentage call is to oppose. |
33/1 |

6th 6 |
3rd Dec 2022 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
12-race maiden but she ran her best race over fences so far when a 66-1 second from out of the weights at Newcastle (2m7f, soft) on her return last month; 5lb higher here but she pulled clear of the third last time and has possibilities if she can back that up back at this trip. |

Thorough stayer whose last win was at Ayr in February 2025 (3m, soft); several good runs since, including when second at Carlisle last month; each-way chance. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |

Strike-rate of 2-30; has a chance on her second at Carlisle last time (3m1f, good to soft) having also finished runner-up at Ayr in January (3m, heavy); each-way chance. |

Won twice over 3m-plus last season, the first time over 3m2f on good to soft at Kelso; has run a couple of fair races this term and has a chance on her best form with a visor replacing cheekpieces. |

16th May 2023 Good 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |

Badly out of form over hurdles during the winter and also struggled in a recent Flat marathon; very difficult to enthuse over at present. |

24th Apr 2023 Good 2m 5f 139y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Something to prove regarding current form as she was a long way below her best over hurdles this winter; however, she's had a break and this strong stayer could prove suited by today's marathon test; not ruled out. |
9/1 |

14th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |

One of her better runs when 18l second in first-time cheekpieces over fences at Lingfield (2m4f, soft) in November; however, pulled up in chases the next twice and has something to prove now back over hurdles in a visor. |

Irish maiden point winner; standout effort when second in a novice hurdle at Plumpton (2m4f, good to soft) in January; down the weights in first-time headgear when second again at this track (2m4f, soft) three weeks ago on second chase start, admittedly beaten 18l but it was a step back in the right direction. |

Stays well and is on a dangerous mark but she ended last season with a heavy defeat at Southwell in April and that took her record to 0-25; others are more convincing. |
