24th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
held up in rear, mistake and pecked on landing 1st, steady headway from 3 out, switched right when bit short of room approaching last, pressed leader and kept on run-in, no extra final strides |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Came good for Sandy Thomson at third attempt, with comfortable win at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft) in February, and put a lesser run behind her when close at fourth at Cartmel (2m1f, good to soft) last month; this move back up in trip will suit; may yet have a bigger run in her. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Shot up 16lb for her back-to-back wins (2m3f/2m5f) and, although a bad mistake was no help when last to finish at Carlisle, it could be that the handicapper has caught up with her. |

3rd 3 |
8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Thriving mare who bids to compete a hat-trick after clear wins at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) this year; shooting up the weights but needs to be taken very seriously in current form. |
4/5 |
|
1st 4 |
3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won by 10l on reappearance here (2m4f, soft) in November and, after not staying 3m at Ayr, she bounced back with an easy, all-the-way win at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) 12 days ago; 8lb higher in a tougher race today but this progressive 8yo could still be ahead of the handicapper. |

Marked improvement when winning over C&D 19 days ago, reportedly benefiting from a break; up 8lb but still has time to do better. |

21st Apr 2024 Good To Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Unexposed after only four hurdling starts but was beaten about 25l when fourth of nine on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft) in February and her tendency to race too freely remains a concern; 1lb wrong here. |

Dual Flat winner but 0-9 over hurdles, although fair run last time when 2l third at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to firm; tongue-tie back on); 4lb lower than when fourth in this race last season; each-way chance. |

10st 8lb |
Made a winning start over fences at Newcastle (2m7f) in October; has failed to build on it though and she unseated her rider at Hexham (3m) two weeks ago; has a bit to prove. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Won a three-runner handicap at Newcastle on chase debut in October (2m7f, good); no easy task when pulled up in Lincolnshire National last time; unexposed as a chaser and should improve. |

Game winner of an ordinary 2m mares' maiden here in October; out of her depth in a Grade 3 event at Down Royal; this is much more realistic; something amiss when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in November; massive task here. |

11yo mare who has not won in over two years and was tailed off at Taunton (2m3f, good) last month; others are preferred. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Not lasting out over longer trips this term, so return to 2m makes sense, but it's over five years since she was last able to win outside mares-only company; 6lb out of the weights. |
