30th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Delivered on earlier promise and created good impression when making all in Wincanton novice (2m5f, good to soft) in February; finished tired and well held in both handicaps this autumn (2m5f/2m3f) but may benefit from today's drop back in trip and remains of interest; hooded for first time. |

Finished tired after leading on seasonal/handicap debut at Wincanton (2m5f, good to soft) but created pretty good impression when making all over that C&D in novice company in February and remains one to be interested in. |

Beat Great Snow by 5l when readily making all in C&D novice (good to soft) in February on third start over hurdles; not seen since but should have more progress to come in handicaps this season and commands respect; had wind op in June. |

5th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Went close at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in December and also ran well when fourth over C&D (soft) in February; current mark is workable but she was very disappointing on good ground last month and would appeal much more on a slower surface. |
4/1 |

9th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Not disgraced in two of her last three starts as when fourth of eight at Chepstow (3m, soft) four weeks ago, but this trip on drying ground may be an insufficient test for her now and she looks vulnerable to younger rivals. |

Only the two wins to her name but she's consistent and finished a respectable 11l sixth of eight in a class 2 at Kempton from out of the weights over Christmas, ridden by Chad Bament who couldn't make use of his full claim; strong stayer who's worth considering, back in class. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Has enhanced her good strike-rate over fences with back-to-back wins at Newton Abbot (2m5f) and Bangor (3m; again on good); it was harder work last time after a 6lb rise and she now has another 5lb to contend with, though last time was her first go over this far. |

1st 4 |
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 |

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. |

6th May 2024 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Well handicapped on her old hurdles form but she's been pulled up in three of her last five starts including at Newbury (3m, good to soft) in March; drops back in trip/grade but she needs a major turnaround back against her own sex. |

Well handicapped if going back far enough but last season didn't end well and again below par this term over fences (in cheekpieces last twice), with her placed efforts nothing to shout about (beaten 22l and 39l); returns to hurdling with a few questions to answer. |

3rd Mar 2023 Good 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Good-ground Listed bumper runner-up who got off the mark over hurdles at the third attempt at Hereford (2m5f, soft) in January; however, she hasn't really convinced in this sphere and was well beaten at Wincanton last time. |
9/1 |

2nd Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Won a bumper on debut; much more like it as a hurdler when justifying 6-5 favouritism in 11-runner maiden at Hereford (2m5f, soft) four weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces; now needs overall improvement. |
6/1 |

4th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |

Good bumper form last season but she has disappointed in both hurdling attempts this term; something of a risky proposition at present but she'll be hard to beat if cheekpieces perk her up. |

11st 10lb |
Improved to make winning handicap hurdle debut at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in March; no match for easy winner when second over 2m3f last month but connections are evidently very keen to switch this winning Irish pointer to chasing; shortlisted. |
3/1 |

6th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
12st 1lb |
Just six career starts and off the mark over hurdles on her handicap debut when fending off Chantilly Haze over 2m here 13 days ago; longer trip a likely plus and no surprise to see a bold bid up 5lb. |

24th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Irish point winner; always towards rear in first two hurdle races (2m4f/2m5f) but fared much better when third in first-time hood at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; the value of that form is open to question but she has plenty of scope to improve again in handicaps. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Just one win from her 11 chase starts and inconsistent this season but she ran okay in the face of a tough task when third of five in Listed race at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; capable of having a big say now back in a handicap. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Record of only 1-10 over fences and rather exposed; distant second on penultimate start and never landed a blow in competitive handicap at Cheltenham latest; however, best form suggests she can achieve a top-three finish in this field. |
10/1 |

17th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Four-time hurdle winner and prevailed narrowly in a 2m4f mares' handicap chase at Kempton in November (good); hasn't really threatened to go in again since then and cheekpieces are added to the tongue-tie tried last time. |
