19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time winner over 5f-7f on turf in Ireland but has beaten a total of one rival in two runs at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) for this yard; first-time hood and the return of a tongue-tie needs to make a big difference. |

Won twice in 2023; failed to score last season; beat 22 rivals at the Curragh in June; not beaten far in her last two races; one of three runners for her trainer, a senior rider aboard in each case; ground-versatile. |

9st 9lb |
Solid runs on turf in first half of the year before disappointing polytrack debut in July when too keen in first-time cheekpieces; back from a break here off 5lb lower but still has a bit to prove (headgear left off). |

9st 7lb |
Fairly treated on her back-to-back runner-up efforts over 7f on AW/turf in August but not quite at the same level in recent starts; Captain Parma is the more obvious of her prolific stable's pair. |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-Irish soft/heavy-ground winner; 0-10 for James Owen since June; has posted some good efforts in defeat but struggles for consistency and it was one of her lesser efforts when fifth of seven at Chester (7f, good) on Friday; first run at 6f for over two years. |

Ex-Irish 5yo who is 0-9 for James Owen since the spring; has posted some good efforts in defeat, most recently when third at Lingfield (7f, AW) last week, but her tendency to race too freely and/or start slowly is a nagging concern. |

0-12 on the flat and 0-4 over hurdles; well-beaten on his handicap hurdle debut at Kilbeggan (2m3f, good to yielding); blinkers go back on but they didn't seem to do much for him when he wore them before; hard to make a case for. |

Acts on heavy; 12-race maiden in Ireland for Michael O'Meara, short-headed once in 2023; blinkered last time (June, best run this term) and now tries cheekpieces; with same owner and well down the weights, so a case can be made on this British debut. |
