jumped right on occasions, raced in second, pressed leader after 4 out, lost second before 2 out, soon weakened, eased run-in |

18th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Low-mileage 9yo mare who struck form and made all twice against own sex at Warwick (2m, good) last month, latterly on handicap debut; has a bit more on her plate here but might still be improving; respected. |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Point/bumper winner who got off the mark on third start over hurdles when winning a C&D maiden by 14l this month (good; odds-on favourite bled); stiffer task but an interesting runner on handicap debut. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Dual AW winner who has won over hurdles but very opposable on her more recent form; tongue-tie joins the cheekpieces tried last time. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Dual AW winner who has won over hurdles; however, cheekpieces are now fitted after two modest runs after a break. |

27th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Dual AW winner and landed a good-ground novice hurdle for mares last summer; confined to just three sightings in the meantime and all of them uncompetitive, including handicap debut at Market Rasen last month. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Came good over hurdles at seventh attempt, gamely making all at Worcester (2m7f, good) this month; still unexposed over this sort of trip; further progress is possible. |
9/2 |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Remains a maiden under rules, latest when given an attacking ride in first-time cheekpieces (retained) but ending up a well-beaten third of seven finishers at Warwick (2m3f, good) four weeks ago; steps up in trip but stamina may be an issue. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Her dam is Snow Leopardess, who won the Becher Chase for these connections; this mare has been a long way from hitting those heights but ran well for a fair way at Fakenham (2m4f, good) four weeks ago when back from a break, and she could build on that effort; first-time cheekpieces replace a hood. |

Placed in slowly run Stratford novice (2m, good to firm) in July and reportedly lost her action when pulled up on handicap debut there later that month; not one of her stable's stars but remains unexposed. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Disappointing on both runs this year and needs to turn things around; however, perhaps first-time cheekpieces will help and she won over C&D (good to soft) in November on her last visit here. |
7/1 |
|
7th 9 |
3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Justified market support when winning at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) in November; didn't see it out as well as the principals at Ayr (3m; fourth of ten) next time, before pulling up on heavy ground at Leicester latest; probable player if returning to peak form. |
9/2 |

20th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Opened account with clearcut success at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November and ran well until stamina ebbed away at Ayr (3m, heavy) last month; drops back in trip here and has another big role to play. |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 1y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Progressive 7yo who held on well to score at Wincanton (2m4f, soft) last month and is now 4-6 in handicaps; latest 5lb rise does not look excessive and it's hard to tell when her improvement will level off; respected. |

6th May 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ex-Irish 6yo; won two of her four bumpers and the last success was in a mares' Listed race at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) on her penultimate run; could have a bright future over hurdles and she looks a strong contender on this switch to jumping. |

Well beaten a massive odds on all five hurdling starts (including a seller); out of the weights for this handicap debut and very difficult to enthuse over; hood removed after one use. |
