5th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Close third of 15 in Brocklesby on debut in March but both 5f runs in April were disappointing; hiked up in trip for this nursery/AW debut and not an easy filly to weigh up on first start for 163 days. |
9/1 |

25th Apr 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Third in the Brocklesby was a promising start but she stopped quickly at Thirsk on Saturday; needs to bounce back quickly. |

1st 6 (3) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Made all in maiden handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) last June; disappointing after that in 2025 but more encouraging signs when fifth of nine to Herakles (Dc Cogent third) on Nottingham reappearance 19 days ago, fading late as if the outing was just needed; enters calculations having dipped 2lb below her winning mark. |
9/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made all when winning a maiden handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last June but she's been disappointing since and ended last season with a heavy defeat at this track; drops back in trip/grade on her return but record is now 1-12 and others are more convincing. |
40/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Usually races prominently; won a maiden handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) in June but mostly lesser efforts have followed; others are much more appealing. |

4th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Came closest to winning when beaten a length into second of seven at Lingfield (6f, soft) in July, but not so effective on fast ground there a fortnight later; ran with credit when fourth of eight at Kempton (5f, Polytrack) in April and one for the shortlist in new headgear combination. |
8/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
24th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Not wildly progressive since her Brocklesby fifth, but a 1l second on this month's C&D nursery debut (soft) was career-best form, and all the more meritworthy considering she'd turned out 24 hours earlier; offered little on sole previous start on a sound surface, albeit over 7f. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Hasn't really progressed but she was beaten only 2l when fourth in Thirsk nursery (5f, good to firm) this month, and she won a Beverley maiden on good to soft ground; might not be far away. |
7/1 |

15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner whose run of steadily progressive efforts came to a halt on nursery debut when upped to 6f; drop back to this trip should suit but vulnerable under a penalty. |

2nd Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Listed winner during a busy 2yo campaign but well held at that level in her first two runs of this season and fared no better back in a handicap at Royal Ascot last time when tried in blinkers; handles slow ground but now has questions to answer. |
16/1 |
|

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Busy 2yo campaign yielded three wins, notably in Listed grade at Newbury in August (5f, good); unplaced in two Listed events this spring; dropped 3lb for her troubles but the first-time blinkers need to have a positive effect. |

10th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Debut winner at Pontefract (5f, soft) early last season and knocking on the door on AW at Newcastle and Southwell (7f) later in the year; excuses for poor Chester run - drawn wide and hampered - latest but does need to bounce back in a newly applied hood; easing mark a plus. |

13th 11 (11) |
13th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Winless since her debut at Pontefract last April but not disgraced given she was set a lot to do when a close eighth of 12 in 7f Newcastle handicap last month; possibilities off a 2lb lower mark. |
25/1 |
|
8th 8 (10) |
11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made a winning debut at Pontefract (5f, soft) just over a year ago and went down only narrowly in two Tapeta nurseries in the autumn (the first over C&D); will need to step foward from her reappearance here in March, though. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

A fair 5f juvenile winner for Karl Burke but she arrives under a cloud, eighth in 5f Carlisle handicap two weeks ago; she has something to prove. |

8th 7 (10) |
9th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Had some useful form as a 2yo but it's been tough going this time around; tailed off over 6f here when last seen in July; now wears cheekpieces for just the second time (runner-up in a seller when tried previously). |

Placed twice at novice level but has shown no progress in handicaps kept to 5f; chance depends on whether this new trip has a positive effect. |

Verdict
Even with the ground drying out this will be a test for these juveniles and the benefit of experience is a major plus for INDICATION EMBER. Grant Tuer’s filly ran a promising race in the Brocklesby and can get off the mark at the second attempt. Marajito is preferred to Englemere and Larchill Lass amongst the newcomers.[Paul Smith]
