In good form since joining current yard, notably good third to Inishmot Prince, not clear run at vital stage when beaten a neck by Collective Power over 6f in steadily-run affair and short of room home turn when third (Inishmot Prince second) back at 5f a week ago; cheekpieces now tried. |

7th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won a Lingfield maiden (6f, Polytrack) last November and has finished runner-up in her last two handicaps, the latest behind an easy winner at Chelmsford (6f, Polytrack) five weeks ago (third has won since); unexposed after just five starts and one for the shortlist. |

14th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Appeared to appreciate the step up in trip when winning over C&D in September, but didn't build on that effort at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) last month; going back up to 7f may help, but the outside stall won't. |
9/1 |

5th 7 (6) |
18th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
6f winner for Richard Hughes last summer; off the mark for current stable when dictating matters in a 0-70 fillies' handicap at Wolverhampton last month (7f); only 2lb higher but things might not pan out so smoothly a second time. |

3rd Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't run badly in a stronger race here last month (6f), going with plenty of enthusiasm in this headgear for the first time; down 2lb and she should give it another good go. |
7/1 |
|
7th 13 (4) |
7th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Beat 16 rivals when winning a Class 6 nursery at Leicester last October (6f, good); first two starts this year weren't too bad but quiet more recently, including a 7l fourth at Chelmsford on Saturday; tongue-tie tried the last twice left off and cheekpieces go on. |
33/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
2nd Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Beat 16 rivals when winning a Class 6 nursery at Leicester last October (6f, good); first two starts this year weren't too bad but she took a backward step at Newmarket a fortnight ago (tongue-tied for the first time, retained); better than that but others still appeal more. |

11th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three wins last year, two of them over C&D, and she has run some good races in defeat in 2025, including C&D; saw no daylight when a close fifth here 13 days ago and that was a Class 4; good chance back into Class 6. |
11/4 |
|
7 (7) |
29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Dual 6f course winner; runner-up here (6f, good) and at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last month but below her best when favourite and only sixth of eight at this track (7f, good to firm; Dark Side Thunder third) 15 days ago; possibilities if that can be forgiven. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Serial slow starter who's done most recent racing over 7f and looked to find this trip stretching her a couple of times; capable if getting away and finding the race setting up for her but she's been expensive to follow in 0-50 company latterly. |
12/1 |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed in all three starts since dropped to this level, twice finishing runner-up over C&D last month; creditable effort when third of 11 at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) 12 days ago considering she was drawn wide and blew the start; major player. |
11/4 |

3rd 2 (11) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Finished second in two 7f classified events at Southwell last month, collared close home on the second occasion; this C&D winner is one of two solid candidates for her connections. |

6th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Six-race maiden; has not progressed, and looked a tricky ride when seventh of ten on handicap debut at Chelmsford (6f) last month. |
8/1 |
|
7th 7 (1) |
2nd Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

2nd 12 (5) |
21st Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won a 6f fillies' novice event at Chelmsford on her racecourse debut (trained by Andrew Balding); similar form in handicaps for new yard, over C&D the last twice, and leaves the impression there may still be a bigger effort in her; betting to guide. |
14/1 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
7th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Won debut; no serious impact in three handicaps for new yard, the latest over C&D when never-nearer fifth of 11 from out the back; edging down the weights and interesting if the betting speaks in her favour. |
8/1 |

21st Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has failed to successfully get in foal since winning on Polytrack here (6f; stable debut) in March and now resumes her racing career; may have more to offer for this yard and looks interesting with Oisin Murphy booked on return to action. |
6/1 |

4 (3) |
12th Apr 2023 Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark in a 6f Lingfield AW handicap 12 days ago (first-time tongue-tie); up 4lb and worth considering although is not sure to be suited by today's going, even though her dam won on soft. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Five wins at up to 9.4f; has form at 1m3f but suspicion there will be stronger stayers in the field. |

5th 7 (5) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Unplaced in three classified events in January; has more ability than her rating suggests but she doesn't help herself by pulling and her optimum trip isn't easy to gauge. |
33/1 |
