11th Jan 2025 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Useful mare who completed the full jumps set with her commanding performance in Listed novice event at Warwick (2m4f, good to soft; second chase attempt) last month, adding to her point, bumper and hurdle wins; acts on soft; major contender even with 5lb penalty back against males. |

Ran well in defeat in Graded novice hurdles on final two starts last season (2m4f/3m, soft) and reappeared with respectable third of three against males on chase debut at Carlisle (2m4f, good to soft) in October; the return to a left-handed track could suit and she's one to consider. |

Won a Haydock maiden hurdle in 2023 (2m3f, good to soft) and lightly raced in the meantime; tailed off in her last three handicaps and had wind surgery since the latest; risky. |

Sole win was in a Haydock maiden (2m3f, good to soft) in April 2023 and she's finished tailed off in both runs since returning from a long absence in December; has plenty to prove and she's untried at this trip. |

19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Haydock maiden hurdle (2m3f, good to soft) winner in April 2023 who had bits and pieces of handicap form the following season; tailed off on her return from a 617-day absence at Wetherby (about 2m5f, soft) in December and that outing will have needed to bring her on a good deal. |

Scored at Haydock (2m5f) in March and largely in good nick since, though she beat only one in 2m4f Worcester handicap hurdle 33 days ago; she's the sort to bounce back. |

First-time visor and enjoyed a soft lead when winning at Haydock (2m5f, good) in March; bumped into one when second last time but that still completed a subsequent run of double-figure defeats. |

24th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won by 5l at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) but after a bold ride she was comfortably reeled in on her return visit; probably able off this mark if this race pans out more effectively. |
4/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 59y Class 4 |

0-8 over fences but made the frame three consecutive times towards end of last year, perhaps most notably when third of ten at Lingfield (2m6f, good) on second occasion; contender if suited by this new trip. |

13th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Had rather mixed record over hurdles last season but her clearcut win at Leicester (2m4f, soft) in January was a good performance, and her Irish point dead-heat in 2021 bodes well for her prospects on this chasing debut; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft. |

Won with authority under Dylan Johnston at Leicester (2m4f, soft; five ran) in January on second start for this yard but has made two backward steps since; that latest came when tried at 3m, which sees the cheekpieces go on today and she's got a bit to prove. |

Listed bumper winner who was 3-6 in novice hurdles last season; makes chase/handicap debut after six-month absence but is unexposed over this sort of trip and could have a good future over fences. |

Outclassed in the 2m1f Grade 2 for mares at Cheltenham but was having a pleasing first season over hurdles before that and looks a major player at this lower level. |

11st 13lb |
Capitalised upon some considerable help from the handicapper when winning over C&D (good) just under a year ago and returns here after a decent effort at Kelso this month, but she's nothing like the force of old and has become inconsistent. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |

Last win came off a 5lb lower mark at Market Rasen in June last year (2m4f, good); not at her best last time but has a chance on her previous run when third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft). |

Scored at Market Rasen (on good ground) last June and she returned from a seven-month absence with a very good third of nine over C&D 11 days ago; this C&D winner can go very well off an unchanged mark. |

Back on track with last month's Huntingdon fourth (3m, good), but once again couldn't tease out her resources for long enough and the change of headgear looks worth a go; player if that works with mark never lower. |

Twice runner-up over fences in May, including over C&D, but she turned in a below-par seventh back hurdling at Worcester (2m7f) last month; she needs to bounce back. |
