3rd 1 |
8th Jun 2023 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Although still a maiden, she's shown plenty of promise and ran well on her return from two months off (and wind surgery) at Perth three weeks ago (2m, good); stable going well and looks sure to be involved. |
2/1 |

3rd 4 |
18th May 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Placed in her first two bumpers and was runner-up on her second hurdle run (2m1f, good); her form has gone the wrong way in last two starts but she's had wind surgery and looks a possible improver now switched to a handicap; needs watching in market. |

7th May 2024 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-14 but was placed over hurdles and she did go off favourite for chase debut at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) where an early mistake didn't help matters (ended up last of five); better was expected by all accounts and she tries cheekpieces. |

13-race maiden who hasn't threatened over hurdles the last twice; however, she's on a competitive mark on her best form in that sphere and she's only six; one to watch in the betting on her chase debut. |

Below her best on last three appearances, though a reluctance to settle (often the case) was never going to help when upped to nearly 3m the last time; she did win at Fakenham in November (7lb lower) on her last race at about this trip and heavy ground is fine. |

3rd Jul 2023 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

Began hurdling career with two reasonably encouraging runs at Bangor in spring 2022 but wasn't seen again until 53l defeat there in February; improvement required on today's handicap debut. |

10th Jun 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Unplaced in all seven starts but showed ability when beaten around 20l in two maiden hurdles here last May; tailed off in February so faces a few questions on handicap debut; up in trip. |

26th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 1f 0y Class 5 |

0-12 over hurdles and has become rather disappointing but ran very game race from the front when second under Charlie Maggs at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) last week and will take some passing if in same mood here. |
7/4 |

2nd 5 |
18th Mar 2023 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Maiden after 11 starts but the return to further didn't work out at Bangor last month and better claims on earlier form at this shorter trip, including when second of four at Leicester in December (good to soft), the winner having won both 2m starts since; solid chance. |

Ordinary efforts so far, including in handicaps over this trip on last two starts; improvement needed. |

4th 3 |
29th Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Has displayed glimpses of ability (on various ground) but she was pulled up at 28-1 on her handicap debut at Ayr (2m4f, good) three weeks ago and has to leave that form miles behind. |

10th Mar 2023 Good 2m 4f 100y Class 5 |

Not solid judged on her form in novice hurdles, modest fourth of six at Kelso (2m) most recently; needs to improve for the switch to handicap level. |

11st 11lb |
Close third over hurdles at Wetherby (3m, soft) in January then won over fences at Catterick (3m1f, soft); ran pretty well when 5l third of three in Sedgefield chase (3m2f, good) last time; arrives in good heart and there can be optimism that she'll be fine now back down in trip; possible player. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 4 |

Close third over hurdles at Wetherby (3m, soft) in January then made it 3-6 over fences when winning at Catterick (3m1f, soft); has won on good ground; it was a weak race last time but she's unexposed over fences and could still have more to offer in this sphere; respected. |

10st 13lb |
Won readily in first-time tongue-tie at Southwell (2m4f, good) in June but her form has slumped since; can be excused her most recent defeat (on heavy ground) but still arrives here with a point to prove. |

26th Aug 2024 Soft 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |

Won a mares' handicap at Southwell in June (2m4f, good; first-time tongue-tie); reportedly never travelled when tailed off here next time and failed to get involved from out the back at Stratford (2m2f; 28-1) latest; goes back up in trip with a bit to prove now. |

11st 6lb |
Shot up 16lb for her back-to-back wins (2m3f/2m5f) and, although a bad mistake was no help when last to finish at Carlisle, it could be that the handicapper has caught up with her. |
5/1 |

8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Thriving mare who bids to compete a hat-trick after clear wins at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) this year; shooting up the weights but needs to be taken very seriously in current form. |
4/5 |

1st 4 |
3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won by 10l on reappearance here (2m4f, soft) in November and, after not staying 3m at Ayr, she bounced back with an easy, all-the-way win at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) 12 days ago; 8lb higher in a tougher race today but this progressive 8yo could still be ahead of the handicapper. |
9/4 |
Verdict
There won’t be any 66-1 on offer about Silver Vision this time but she has to be feared after her Musselburgh win. However, ROSE OF SIENA could be suited by this slight drop back in trip and stiffer track and she can deliver on the promise she has shown. Crem Fresh looks an obvious danger, while Emily Wade may also be capable of having a say.[Jonathan Doidge]
