17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Triple winner over hurdles at up to 2m3f and goes well on a sound surface; 2lb lower than when last winning at Huntingdon 13 months ago; well below that level over fences/hurdles this season and down the field in 1m3f AW novice event in January when last seen; handy mark if revived. |

Three-time winner over hurdles, but has lost her way over jumps; plenty to prove on belated Flat debut. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 181y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Three chase wins for Jennie Candlish last season (one a walkover); perhaps best watched back over hurdles on stable debut after a 335-day break. |

17th Jul 2024 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Pulled up on a couple of occasions earlier this year (hurdle and a chase) and only slightly better over fences at Worcester (2m7f) the last twice; easing mark, but no obvious reason why he can make it 10th-time lucky. |
20/1 |

26th Jun 2024 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Well beaten in three handicap hurdles during the winter (1m7f-2m5f) and also in two handicap chases this spring (2m5f/2m7f), latterly with today's headgear combination added; big leap of faith needed to support him. |

30th Oct 2024 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Best of her seven runs over hurdles was when runner-up to a useful prospect at Huntingdon on her return from a summer break last November (2m3f, good to soft); didn't really progress but quite interesting now going chasing after another summer off, having had a wind op. |

23rd Oct 2024 Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Close second here (2m5f, good) for Alexandra Dunn last September; struggled on next two appearances and was always behind when reappearing for new stable over C&D last month but might revert to more positive tactics in first-time cheekpieces today and is one to keep an eye on in the betting. |

5th Jul 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Yet to achieve a great deal and well held in fifth on last month's Bangor handicap debut (made the running); down 5lb and top stable persevering so could be worth another chance. |
9/1 |

10th Jun 2023 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Yet to set the world alight and finished last on her latest outing at Chepstow in April; her best effort came on good to firm and starts handicap life on a modest mark for top stable; market check essential. |
9/2 |

6th 4 |
15th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Flopped when warm favourite for debut but fared better when third (over 4l behind Imperial Jade) at Newbury (2m, good to firm) in February and was respectable fourth in stronger race than this at Taunton (2m, good to soft) last month; with a top stable and may still have a bigger run in her. |
