4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Moderate in just three starts since her successful handicap debut at Chepstow (1m, good) in September last year; being a half-sister to two AW winners the main positive. |
14/1 |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Made all at Chepstow (1m, good; handicap debut) last September; absent after flopping at Brighton the following month until she reappeared with big defeat back there one month ago; quite possibly needed that and she's not fully exposed, however; heed any market signals. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has scored twice over C&D this year; was denied her hat-trick (8.5f) last month after being hampered at the start and denied a clear run when looking to challenge; may be worth another chance. |

19th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner in December off 1lb higher; patchy record this year but she's in a weak race and can't be discounted. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (7) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Narrow winner of a 7f nursery at Chelmsford in December (blinkered for the first time); best effort since when second over 7f here in July (good to soft); disappointed here last week though and returns to 1m with headgear left off. |
8/1 |

7th 9 (2) |
26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Twice in the frame over C&D this summer, more recently when clear second on good to soft ground; gets another chance off the same mark and features prominently in calculations. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Seven-race maiden who made the frame but was safely held on first two starts for Ollie Sangster (1m2f/1m, turf); wore cheekpieces last time; blinkers are refitted for this AW debut; needs to find something extra. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't run badly on her stable debut at Salisbury last month without quite matching her best efforts for William Haggas; the return of headgear (new cheekpieces) can help though and she's one for the shortlist. |
2/1 |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Both turf wins have been at 1m on good to firm; has won twice in blinkers on AW this year; although not in top form last twice, these conditions are ideal and could go well on this return to turf. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice at this level earlier in the year, including C&D; finished behind Gloriola when fifth over C&D three weeks ago; should give a good account. |
6/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Serial hard-puller who won a 0-50 over C&D in the winter and has held his form well; not beaten far in handicaps on last two outings and may have needed it last time after a break; one to consider. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

He ran his best race for some time when second of five in a handicap over C&D (good to firm) last week; fair fourth at Bath on Wednesday but others appeal more for win purposes. |
16/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has largely struggled since landing two wins (including C&D on firm) in the summer of 2024 but did take a step back in the right direction when second of five at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) last Wednesday; claims if he can back that up. |
5/1 |

2nd 5 (5) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
