22nd Oct 2023 Good To Soft 3m 2f 202y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Both hurdle wins on good ground but showed he could get it done on soft when winning a five-runner handicap chase at Hexham (3m) 16 days ago; the third there has won since and a 4lb rise isn't excessive; one to consider. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
C&D record of 2-7 includes victory in this race in 2023 off 5lb higher (good); pulled up in last year's renewal, however, and other results last term offer scant optimism on this return from seven months off. |

Has won off higher marks in the past but has regressed in four appearances this year; tried cheekpieces last time; others safer. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Kept on well for second over C&D (heavy) in April, her second run after a long absence; will be fine on today's much faster ground but her form has slumped badly in recent weeks. |

24th Jun 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Kept on well for second over C&D (heavy) in April, her second run after a long absence, and will be fine on today's much faster ground but has questions to answer after two disappointing runs at Fontwell last month. |

25th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Kept on well for clear second at Newton Abbot (3m2f, heavy) last month, her second run after a long absence, and will be fine on the faster ground here but was behind a couple of today's rivals when well-held sixth over C&D 18 days ago and, on balance, others appeal more; 1lb out of the weights. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-19 over fences and has struggled in her last two starts, both over C&D; being 9lb wrong in the handicap doesn't help. |
50/1 |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Point/hurdle winner but 0-18 over fences; good second in a four-runner mares' handicap chase at Catterick in February (3m1f, soft) but pulled up last time. |
12/1 |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Yet to get her head in front over fences but she posted a good second of four in 3m1f Catterick handicap last month; both her hurdling wins came here too, so she's not out of things. |
