23rd Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Successful in 1m fillies' handicaps at this course in May and Goodwood in August; last two efforts suggests she remains in form but a career-best performance is needed off current mark. |

No match for Asteverdi at Sandown in June but C&D winner (good to soft) in August and a solid third behind one who has since outgrown handicaps over 1m at Ascot in September; fairly exposed now but this lesser test might suit better; not far away. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well beaten in Listed race and AW handicap on final two runs in November; however, a break may have helped and she's of interest judged on her two efforts last summer (1m1f/8.3f), when shaping as though 1m2f would suit. |
14/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |

Won her sole start as a 2yo at Newmarket (7f, heavy) for David Simcock and twice placed in four starts for this yard, the latest when third of eight from 1lb higher here (1m1f, good to soft) last month (Epidavros second); still lightly raced for her age and may yet do better; shortlisted. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Has won on good to soft but her latest three wins, at about 1m, came on good to firm; on a highish mark now but off since September and past evidence suggests she'll come on for the run. |
14/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Handles most ground and she's tactically versatile; has been generally reliable this season and she won in a tight finish at Windsor (1m) in August before a creditable third at York (1m1f) last month; still looks on a workable mark and she's respected with cheekpieces reapplied. |
11/2 |

7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
It was a deep handicap she contested at Goodwood and in solid form otherwise, winning for a fourth time by a short-head at Windsor 24 days ago (1m, good to firm); clear claims off 2lb higher if in similar form here. |

Has posted duck eggs in handicaps at major festivals and Group 3 here since her reappearance success; combination of drop back in class and first-time headgear may have positive effect. |

Won two of her first three races, the exception when fifth in a 7f Goodwood Group 3 last August; 14-1, had a say 2f out in the 3yo fillies' handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) but ended up beaten 20l, after which she has something to prove. |

25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Reached a smart level on the Flat for the Crisfords (effective at 1m with give underfoot); flopped on hurdling/stable debut for Nicky Henderson in July but had wind surgery afterwards and there was some encouragement to be gleaned from her fifth at Ascot (1m, good to soft) 19 days ago; that could be a run to build on and her sole start at 1m2f was inconclusive; not at all ruled out. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Reached a smart level on the Flat for the Crisfords (effective at 1m with give underfoot); bitterly disappointing in a novice hurdle on debut for Nicky Henderson but unwise to read too much into that and she's had wind surgery in the meantime. |
16/1 |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Very useful on the Flat for the Crisfords and a respectable sixth in a 1m Newmarket handicap in October; switched to a top jumps stable for hurdling career and could easily be too good for these if taking to it, providing the stays. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Could hardly be coming into this in better form, winning four of her last five starts including another Listed event at Chester (7f, good) ten days ago; still favoured on these terms despite her 3lb penalty and although the stiffer mile is one small question mark, she is a major player nonetheless. |

1st 3 (8) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
This 5yo is in the form of her life at present, gaining a third Musselburgh handicap win of the season when easily seeing off seven rivals 37 days ago; had a wide stall as a an excuse for a slightly below-par effort over the extended 7f here prior to that and she went close here last season; on the shortlist. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Her last four wins have come at this track, with two of them (7f/1m) last month; drawn wide when down the field at Chester two weeks ago but she has fared better on that front today; big run on the cards. |

Won twice when trained in UK over approx' 7f including on AW; last three runs have been over 1m2.5f; placed at Down Royal and this track either side of a poor run here; a chance if as effective back at a mile. |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Progressive daughter of Pivotal who backed up her victory at Ascot (1m) with an excellent second of 12 at Goodwood (1m) later in July; up 5lb but not taken lightly on her Tapeta debut. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Three wins last season, including handicaps at Leopardstown (1m, good to firm) and Tipperary (7.5f, good); out of her depth in a Group 3 on seasonal debut; below form on soft at Leopardstown; much more like it on quick going over 7f here last time, chasing home one of the stars of the season, Meriden, who has won a Listed race to complete a five-timer; strong chance. |
13/8 |

2nd 9 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 0lb |
Won three times last year, an AW maiden (1m) plus handicaps at Leopardstown (1m) and Tipperary (7.5f); outclassed in a Group 3 on return and probably found the ground too soft since; can do better on this faster ground. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (10) |
4th Jun 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 20y |

Progressive in handicaps last year; went up an aggregate 11lb for wins here and Tipperary and ended season with a fine third in a premier handicap at this venue (Bella Isabella, seventh); sights lowered again after a 1m Group 3 bid here on return; definite chance. |
