2nd 1 |
20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Made it 3-4 under rules when winning at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) in January on second handicap start and good second at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft) subsequently; this progressive 7yo holds very solid claims. |

|
2nd 1 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Placed in her two Irish points (3m, soft); has won a bumper, a novice hurdle and last time a handicap hurdle at 2m/2m1f on good/good to soft under rules, her only hurdles defeat when fourth on soft ground at Wincanton when returning from a 410-day break; should be suited by the step up to 2m4f; contender. |
9/2 |

1st 5 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Bumper winner who made all in a Uttoxeter mares' maiden (2m, good) on hurdle debut in November 2024; made an encouraging reappearance at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) last month on handicap debut and it wouldn't be a surprise should she figure here with that run behind her. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Has to bounce back from a couple of modest runs (latest second was a remote one) but she has since undergone a wind operation; closely matched with Party Vibes and Theonewedreamof on their Cheltenham clash in December; possible. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
9th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Made a winning start over fences at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in November and ran well when third of 13 finishers at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) the following month; had an off day at Market Rasen last time but worth another chance. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 |
16th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
0-5 over hurdles but made winning seasonal/chase debut at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in November and bettered that performance when close third of 15 in Cheltenham mares' race (2m4f, good to soft) last month; moves back up up in trip here and probably still has more to offer over fences. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Stopped too quickly at Cartmel latest (2m6f, good to soft) for either the 4lb rise for her previous Newton Abbot success (3m2f, good) or the quirky course to seem the issue; step back up in trip is a plus, but questions to answer again; cheekpieces discarded. |
8/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Kept on well for narrow success at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) this month, opening her hurdling account at the eighth attempt; will be fine on the forecast slower ground and further progress is possible if combination of drop back in trip and first-time cheekpieces has positive effect. |
5/2 |

4th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Third in a mares' bumper here (good) on debut last year; unable to improve on that level of form but was third over hurdles at Chepstow (2m3f, heavy) in January; below that level twice since; half-sister to a 3m winner, so this longer trip might see her find some improvement. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Made all with something to spare at Hereford (2m5f, heavy) in February on second handicap start and another good run when third at Wincanton (3m, good to soft) last month; might not be far away. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Off the mark over hurdles at sixth attempt, making all to score by over 7l at Hereford (2m5f, heavy) three weeks ago; might have more to offer over this longer trip but is back up in grade and needs to prove she's fully effective on this quicker ground. |
11/4 |

1st 1 |
11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 163y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Sported a first-time hood when going very close in Wincanton maiden (about 2m5f, heavy) just over a year ago; couldn't match that either side of a break but last time's handicap debut at Windsor (2m4f, good) was a step back in the right direction; drops in grade. |

7th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Well beaten on last month's handicap debut but that run came after a seven-month absence and she may yet deliver on promise shown in 2m/2m3f maidens last summer. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |

Unexposed mare who made the frame in two maiden hurdles last summer (2m3f, good/2m, soft); open to improvement in handicaps but has fitness to prove after seven-month break. |

Runner-up in a heavy-ground 2m6f point in March last year, but little worthwhile form over hurdles since and was beaten 20l on handicap debut in June; needs to find plenty for this switch to fences from 10lb out of the weights. |
