20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Added to his point/hurdle wins when scoring by 11l over fences at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) in December; well-held third at Ludlow two months later but that was behind a handicap blot and she's still unexposed in this sphere; dangerous back from another break. |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Campaigned mostly at Wincanton; 2-2 in mares' novice handicap chases, comfortably beating three rivals last time (2m4f, good to soft; off 4lb lower); likely player provided she's as effective at this course. |

10st 10lb |
Ran well on both previous visits to Cheltenham, latterly when second of 13 in December (2m4f, good to soft); below that form lately but will be fine over today's trip and Harry Cobden is an interesting booking. |

5th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who returned from long absence with narrow win at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) in December but was never dangerous in her follow-up bid at Windsor (fourth of eighth) last month; that wasn't a bad effort but she needs to find more to defy this mark. |
9/2 |

2nd 8 |
7th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Didn't take to fences on first two starts this season; 2-4 over hurdles last campaign, latterly with a 3m win here on handicap debut, and not discredited on return to hurdling four weeks ago considering that was over only 2m; needs a second look. |
12/1 |

9th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hasn't taken to fences this season but she was 2-4 over hurdles last campaign and she's only 3lb higher than for the handicap success; on the downside, she has something to prove on ground this soft and all her form is at 2m4f+. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 219y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Twice well beaten since winning by a huge margin at Bangor in November (2m4f, heavy; four ran); she's another who loves the mud (good to soft the last twice) so should give her running if nothing else. |
8/1 |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Doubled chasing tally with huge-margin success in four-runner contest at Bangor (2m4f, heavy) in November and made audacious bid from the front before weakening into eighth in big field at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) last month; didn't run particularly well on her previous visit to Fakenham but could take some catching if she gets into a good rhythm. |
5/1 |

17th Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 62y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Took a good while to win over fences and that was in a four-runner race at Leicester (2m4f, soft; 2lb lower); held by Lime Drop on their clash in January and could have run better last time. |
