29th Dec 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 115y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Multiple Listed winner, including the last two runnings of this race (soft/good) and at Aintree three weeks ago (2m4f, heavy; easily); it's a stronger race than in 2021 and 2022 but she should still be a tough nut to crack. |

22nd Mar 2025 Good 3m 0f 100y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
She's 2-17 over hurdles as opposed to 7-27 over fences and is unraced in this sphere since November 2023; however, won twice over fences this season (3m1f/2m4f, good/good to soft) and will be a major player if transferring that form back to hurdles. |

19th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Front-runner who went down narrowly last time at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft), which was a good run over that far for one who stays 3m; Harry Atkins rides again and should hang around to have some say. |

18th Apr 2024 Good 2m 0f 62y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Has 8-28 strike-rate over fences that includes a win off 10lb higher in this race 12 months ago; looked as good as ever when collecting 2m7f Listed prize in December but seems badly to have lost her way this year. |

30th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple wins in Listed mares' chases, the latest at Newbury (2m7f, soft) in December; she's well treated on that form now back in a handicap but has been a long way below her best the last twice; needs to bounce back. |

6th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Record of 6-16 over fences; broke her Listed duck in Doncaster contest (2m4f) most recently, taking advantage of odds-on Brides Hill's below-par show; chance of following up partly depends on whether that opponent, who beat her by 6l in this event last year, is back on song. |
