1st May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Unlucky to lose last June's Uttoxeter chase win (3m, good) on a medical technicality; wheels came off in the autumn but she has revived for current yard, keeping on well for Higham and High Easter open successes on good to firm; could prove the answer. |

11st 2lb |
Unlucky to lose June's hard-fought Uttoxeter chase win (3m, good) off this mark, when an ovarian tumour removed a month later was found to have increased her testosterone levels; effectiveness at today's shorter trip is long proven and this looks an easier contest than the 0-120 last time. |

21st Jan 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Twice beaten by Ooh Betty last spring but has come on leaps and bounds since then, producing career-best RPRs in winning 2m mares' hurdles at Newbury late last year (latest a Listed race); has more on her plate here but she's a no-nonsense mare who will be up there throughout. |

2nd Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Splendidly tough mare who was notching her third win of a busy campaign when trouncing ten rivals in a novice over C&D (good to soft; made most of the running) three weeks ago; that was her best effort by some way and there seemed to be no fluke about it; probably again the one to beat. |

1st Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-5 over hurdles but bumped into a big improver and had a next-time-out winner behind her when second over C&D (good) last month; competes off same mark today; likely contender. |

2nd 8 |
13th Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Bumper winner who is still unexposed over hurdles; lacked the pace to land a telling blow on recent handicap debut at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) but kept on well and was beaten under 5l in the end; that was her first run since last summer and it might have done her good. |

12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-17 under rules and plodded on to grab third at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; sports first-time tongue-tie but lacks the scope of her younger rivals. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 9 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Still a maiden after 16 runs but hasn't been with current stable long and wasn't beaten far when fourth of six on chasing debut at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) three weeks ago; may benefit from this drop back in trip and has the services of Sean Bowen; worth a second look. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Went close at Bangor early last year and was placed again next time; however, her form ran cold afterwards and she finished well behind over hurdles last week after a layoff. |

Successful at the seventh attempt in Irish points, winning at Toomebridge in May (3m, yielding to soft); modest form in two hurdle runs for new yard this summer; now tongue-tied but likely to fare better in handicaps. |

22nd Jun 2023 Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

From a very good jumping family and shaped with significant promise before tiring in closing stages of soft-ground Hereford bumper in January; features prominently in calculations on today's hurdling debut. |

30th Jan 2023 Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |

£26,000 3yo; closely related to winners One For Rosie (bumper/smart 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase) and Grumpy Charley (useful 2m-3m2f hurdle/chase), half-sister to two winners notably Air Horse One (bumper/useful 2m-2m4f hurdle); interesting newcomer. |

Dam an unraced half-sister to high-class chase winner Ad Hoc but making a very belated debut at the age of 11. |
