4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Big player on her form during the first half of last season but neither run this year was anywhere near that level; reservations for now. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Close third in Cheltenham Grade 2 novice (2m good to soft) in October and again ran commendably well when third in Newbury Listed race (2m, soft) a few weeks later but was tailed off when reappearing in a handicap last month and it's hard to know what to expect from her here. |

11st 11lb |
Absent since late November but was in a good run of form back then, finishing close up in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham before again placed in a Listed race for mares; beaten off lower marks in her previous handicaps but looks a better horse now. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Won four-runner mares' chase at Hereford (2m5f, good) last month and is now 4-9 over fences; this race is much more competitive but she could have untapped potential over 3m. |
7/1 |

1st 1 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Hurdle winner on soft but two chase wins in 2025 were on good to soft, latterly at Cheltenham (about 2m4f) in December, and failures since have come on heavy and soft; needs to jump better than she did at Ludlow in February (over 17l behind Malaita) but she could revive back on good ground. |

21st Jan 2025 Heavy 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Glimpses of promise in a bumper and maiden hurdles; came in for some support on her handicap and seasonal debut at Southwell (2m4f, good) last month, when doing much of the work before weakening to be an 18l third; tongue-tie now goes on and no surprise if she finds an improved finishing effort. |

1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Came good over fences at sixth attempt, with 3m success here (heavy) in January, and ran as well as could have been expected when fourth of five in Wincanton Listed race (1m7f, heavy) a fortnight ago; still on a good mark; good chance. |
15/8 |

4th 2 |
14th Feb 2026 1m 7f 149y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Point/bumper winner, who made the breakthrough over fences at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) two weeks ago but that was a minor handicap and she has lots to find back at 2m in this Listed race. |
20/1 |

1st 5 |
30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Commenced her career with point/bumper wins; 0-17 since (0-5 in chases) but has a largely consistent record at Ffos Las and looks a solid contender in that respect; on a reduced mark and drops back in grade. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Progressive mare who has form figures of 21212 since joining Olly Murphy; edged out by a next-time-out winner (pair 19l clear) at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) last time and still looks well treated after a 3lb nudge. |
5/4 |

2nd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Progressive mare who has form figures of 2121 since joining Olly Murphy and she kept on well to beat a clear second at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) last month; this is a different test at this new trip but she has quite a bit of stamina in pedigree and still looks on a workable mark; respected. |
7/2 |

1st 4 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Progressive since joining this yard, winning at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) in December before close second in warm mares' handicap at Windsor (2m4f, soft); drops back down in grade today and could play a leading role. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Launched chasing career with two wins in the autumn (2m4f/2m7f) and came second in two subsequent Listed races (hurdle/chase); lost out only narrowly to a next-time-out winner when back in a handicap at Leicester (2m4f, good to soft) last month and has a fighting chance here. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |

Won handicaps in the autumn on first two chase starts (2m4f/2m7f, good/good to soft) and runner-up in Listed races on both outings since, over hurdles at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) and fences at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft); leading claims back in handicap company. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Seemed to be enjoying hersef in the lead before mid-race mishap at Hereford (3m1f, good; first-time blinkers) last month but she's now 0-9 over fences and has basically become disappointing. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |

Winning hurdler for Henry Daly in 2024; 0-8 over fences and disappointing in the main; beaten 22l when runner-up last time; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

Placed over hurdles for Ben Pauling last year but ultimately became disappointing for him; changed hands after 40l defeat in first-time blinkers in March; goes without headgear on this stable/chase debut. |

26th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 5 |

Better efforts have been on soft ground and if the rain stays away this will be only her second start on a sound surface; each-way player based on her best form but needs to be much better than her last two starts; tongue-tie removed and blinkers now go on. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Now 9lb below the mark of her sole hurdling success (2m3f, heavy), but aptitude for chasing remains unproven, falling mid-race on one attempt and racing too freely on the other. |
33/1 |

24th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |

Mid-race faller in sole chase attempt; has a doubt over current form but is nicely treated assuming this return to fences prompts a resurgence; gained sole hurdles success off 5lb higher. |
12/1 |
