20th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ordinary mare who trailed home last of five finishers in similar event at Taunton (hunter chase debut) most recently; again faces a stiff task on the figures. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Has won two handicap chases but off very modest marks and difficult to envisage her winning this, despite a respectable latest effort between the flags. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Both wins (one here) have been recorded at 2m2f-2m3f, but today's sort of trip may now be closer to optimum judged on this summer's evidence; back below her last winning mark and not ruled out; visor added. |

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 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. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 151y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
In-form 10yo who won over hurdles here (2m4f, soft) in November and over fences at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) last month; 6lb rise has now kicked in but she ran another solid race at Huntingdon last week and she remains well treated on old form; should go well again back over fences. |
7/2 |
|
4th 6 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
In-form 10yo; successful in two of her last three starts, latest at Ffos Las (2m3f, heavy) when returned to fences last week; stays 3m1f and has a leading chance off same mark; due to go up 6lb in future. |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |

In good form over hurdles and ran creditably last time when bidding for a Leicester double; gained sole chase win in 2022 and returns to this sphere for first time since June 2024. |

3rd Sep 2023 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Now 3lb lower than when winning at Carlisle (2m1f, heavy) in March but has been out of form this season (four runs) and is not yet proven over this far. |

21st Aug 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Won off this mark at Carlisle in March (2m1f, heavy) but beaten 20l or more in her three subsequent runs; hood fitted in a hope of turning things around. |

19th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Defied similar mark at Carlisle (2m1f, heavy) in March but tailed off twice since when good ground was no excuse; bit to prove all of a sudden. |

24th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Safely held in her first two chases (2m3f/2m5f) but not without displaying some promise; now 5lb lower than when going close over hurdles in October and could plausibly have untapped potential over 3m+; not ruled out. |
14/1 |

5th Mar 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 199y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ten-race maiden; close second over hurdles here (2m4f, good to soft) last October; creditable fourth here (3m) was easily the best of her three starts since; latest was chase debut, so she has more to prove in this sphere. |
14/1 |

7th Feb 2023 Good To Soft 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |

Poor form in four starts since joining this trainer; in rear when unseating at Hereford on Sunday; can only watch. |

5th Feb 2023 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Ten-race maiden who was pulled up in two soft-ground chases here (2m5f/2m) last month and now reverts to hurdling; makes no significant appeal; visor removed after one use. |
66/1 |

16th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Placed once over hurdles in Ireland but never backed up that effort; has achieved little in two runs for new yard, latest over 2m5f here (chase debut); first-time visor needs to make a big difference. |
