19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Slightly disappointing at Perth last week but was placed on consecutive outings beforehand, once over C&D on fast ground; swaps blinkers for refitted visor (worn once on Flat in 2020); no surprise if she's on the premises. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who is finding her feet after a long absence and she's an assured stayer over this far; looks handicapped about right but has each-way claims. |
7/1 |

Has three wins over hurdles but not firing on all cylinders since returning from a lengthy layoff in February; steps up in trip but others preferred. |

26th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 140y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Soft-ground bumper winner who easily won a 16-runner novice hurdle at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in January; soundly beaten on last month's handicap and seasonal debut at Huntingdon (2m, good) but could improve for the run and this unexposed mare may well have potential off her current mark. |
5/1 |

8th 6 |
25th Nov 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Improved to win 16-runner Doncaster novice (2m, good to soft) in January and was not discredited when beaten odds-on favourite the following month; makes handicap debut after 291-day absence but probably still has potential; enters calculations. |

29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Hurdle winner in 2022 (2m, good to soft) who comes into it on the pick of her chase form, a close second at Exeter (2m1f, soft) in late 2023; has to show that drying ground suits but she's entitled to have a say after needing her comeback run following an absence. |

15th Jan 2024 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Maiden hurdler, though only had four runs; beaten 15l and 10l in two handicap chases (2m4f/2m3f) and shapes as though this drop back in trip could work in her favour; respected. |
5/1 |

17th Nov 2023 Good 2m 3f 31y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
0-4 over hurdles, with a tendency to race too freely, but ran big race in defeat in Warwick handicap (2m5f, good) in May; kept on steadily from the rear for respectable fourth on recent chasing debut at Ludlow (2m4f, good to soft), after a break, and ought to build on that performance here. |
3/1 |

26th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
0-4 over hurdles, with a tendency to race too freely, but ran big race in defeat in Warwick handicap (2m5f, good) in May and is open to significant further improvement if all goes to plan on today's chasing debut. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Well handicapped on old form and will be suited by today's trip/ground but became disappointing last year and made a low-key reappearance in May; revival needed. |

7th 4 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in November 2024 but she struggled last year and was beaten 20l at Sedgefield when last seen in November; now 4lb lower than for her last success but she needs a major revival after a break. |
14/1 |

7th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Only 1lb higher than when winning at Ludlow (3m, good) last November but has very unconvincing record since returning from a break in April; lost jockey when attempting to refuse at first flight on penultimate appearance and was soundly beaten when fourth last time; others are much less risky. |

Couldn't get remotely excited by her form to date (hooded last twice) but this is her handicap debut so is entitled to show more. |
