23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Won at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in November 2024 but she struggled last year and was beaten 20l at Sedgefield when last seen in November; now 4lb lower than for her last success but she needs a major revival after a break. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Only 1lb higher than when winning at Ludlow (3m, good) last November but has very unconvincing record since returning from a break in April; lost jockey when attempting to refuse at first flight on penultimate appearance and was soundly beaten when fourth last time; others are much less risky. |

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

Returned from a break with two below-par hurdle runs in the spring; lost her jockey after a bad mistake over fences in July and repeated the feat when slamming the brakes on back over hurdles at Stratford 18 days ago; might be developing ideas and she can only be watched after that. |

Unwise to blame soft ground when well held in the new cheekpieces at Warwick last time (3m2f); a repeat of his second at Ludlow in November would give him a shout, though that was at 3m. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Multiple hurdle winner at up to 2m5f on a sound surface; 1-2 over fences; won a three-runner chase at Wincanton (1m7f, good) when last seen in March; encouraging record after a break; up 3lb and is unexposed as a chaser over this trip; player. |

5-19 over hurdles, with all wins gained on good/good to firm; well beaten on last month's chasing debut at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) but will be much better suited by today's quicker conditions and may yet have a future over fences. |

Won two handicaps in Ireland; building some momentum for his new yard and probably needs further than the 2m2f he ran over at Exeter last time (stays 3m); needs considering. |

10st 11lb |
Got his fifth hurdles win when beating subsequent Galway festival winner Winning Smut at Killarney in July (2m7f, yielding to soft); beaten 25l apiece in his two chase starts; makes handicap chase debut and chance on his best hurdles form but hasn't shown that yet over fences. |

Not particularly solid on this season's form but record suggests she's a spring mare and this looks the time to catch her; attractively handicapped, being 8lb below the mark of her sole handicap success. |
