2nd 8 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Second on soft ground as 2yo; reappeared in July with a novice win at Newbury (1m2f, good) and suffered traffic problems at a crucial stage when running on into second in Group 3 at Deauville (1m4f, good to soft) last month, the winner having gone well beyond recall; better is needed but there's plenty of the stayer about her (if she settles) and she's one to note. |
9/2 |

19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Ran in two 1m novice events as 2yo, winning at Thirsk (good) and close second at Haydock (soft); well related and this extra 2f will suit her well; has among the best form and is very much one to note. |
11/2 |

2nd 1 (1) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
260,000euros yearling; by Lope De Vega out of an unraced half-sister to Group 1 Dewhurst winner Intense Focus and the dam of Group 1 Moyglare winner Skitter Scatter; debut win came in just a four-runner race but she was 10-11 for that novice at Thirsk (1m, good) and found plenty to deal with a fair sort; Group 1 Fillies' Mile entry who should go well. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Eight-race maiden; four times a runner-up in maiden/novice company but unplaced in both handicap runs; edging down the weights but improvement is required. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 10 (8) |
31st May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
A fair maiden who resumed from seven months off with a solid fifth of ten in 7f Yarmouth handicap 30 days ago; possibilities with blinkers now added. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Likeable front-running filly; made a winning return at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) and typically gave her all when second at Hamilton (1m5f, good) three weeks later; edging up the weights but set for another bold show. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Had three 1m4f wins last summer and better than ever when she took a six-runner race at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) in clearcut style on reappearance three weeks ago, leading over 1f out; up 5lb and she was well held in this higher grade last term, but she is in serious calculations nevertheless. |
7/1 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
A three-time 1m4f winner last summer but she ended 2025 under something of a cloud; has gone well fresh though so not out of things on her seasonal return. |
9/1 |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Maiden prior to posting form figures of 1133 in last four appearances, close third at Doncaster (1m) on seasonal debut latest; upped in grade but may remain competitive. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 13 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Scored twice (around 1m) at Leicester and Lingfield last summer but not seen out after a solid third in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap in September; she has gone well fresh though so can't be discounted. |
8/1 |
|
2 (1) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had showed winning potential before coming good at Leicester and following up at Lingfield (1m AW), again with a bit in hand; raised a collective 7lb but could deal with that. |
6/4 |
