21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 1 |
10st 6lb |
Won two bumpers last term on good to soft; she's failed to match that form over hurdles but second of six on handicap debut at Wetherby (extended 2m3f, soft) last time was at least her best show in this sphere. |
14/1 |

2nd 6 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 154y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
3m point runner-up (heavy) who won two bumpers last term (good to soft; including here); yet to reproduce that promise over hurdles (2m4f/2m) but she kept on nicely at Kempton (2m) most recently and could appreciate the step back up in trip on handicap debut; has potential off opening mark. |
11/4 |

7th 13 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two bumper wins last season (good to soft) but her hurdle form hasn't matched up and she called it a day at Southwell last time out; has had wind surgery since; handicaps may be a better option now. |

2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Bumper scorer; ran respectably behind the market leader at Huntingdon (2m, good) on hurdles debut; failed to beat a rival in Listed grade since (2m3f) but has a more realistic chance back down in class. |
5/1 |

3rd Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 209y Class 1 |

No match for the winner at Wetherby then probably didn't need to improve at Newcastle (AW) where the manner of her success was far from spectacular; doesn't look Graded material. |

22nd Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
The best of her three bumper runs was the middle one when about 10l behind the winner at Wetherby (good to soft); looks vulnerable on this switch to hurdles. |

Belied her 100-1 odds with third-place finish over C&D last time; however, it remains a long time since her stable's last bumper win. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
First foal of a useful jumps winner for her connections; duly showed some promise in bumpers; hasn't fared so well in maiden/novice hurdles but looks the type to improve sharply now qualified for handicaps; interesting. |
3/1 |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |

Hinted at a future in bumpers but weak in the betting for both runs over hurdles and hasn't featured; might be one for handicaps. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Bits of modest form in her three bumpers and three maiden hurdles, easily best from this sphere over 2m5f at Huntingdon (heavy) on penultimate start; tongue tied last two outings; needs improvement on this handicap debut but it looks a weak race. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Better for the tongue-tie when fourth at Huntingdon last month (2m4f, heavy) but posted a modest RPR and might not be up to this. |
10/1 |

4th 7 |
19th Feb 2026 2m 4f 145y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
No great substance to her bumper form and she was beaten a long way at Doncaster on her switch to hurdling (2m, good; 20-1); now has her tongue tied; much to prove. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Seemingly boosted by new cheekpieces when placed twice at Ludlow (2m5f, good) in the autumn; has claims if judged on those efforts but finished tired on soft ground last month and is now 0-11 over hurdles. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 |
23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Ten-race maiden who is struggling to gain a foothold in handicaps and these aids when worn separately have offered little previously. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Unplaced all six hurdle starts for Micky Hammond last season and tailed off for new stable at Stratford (2m, good to firm; tongue-tie added) last month; needs this much longer trip to show her in a much better light. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Didn't show much on her first two starts but there was more encouragement in a close sixth of ten in novice at Kelso (2m, good to soft; 300-1) last month; may improve further. |
9/1 |

6th 11 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Soundly beaten when seventh on both starts, most recently her hurdle and stable debut at Catterick (1m7f, good); others are preferred. |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |

Low-key debut for Sandy Thomson at Wetherby (2m NHF; 13-2, beaten 23l) in November 2024; returns from a 462-day absence for a different trainer for hurdles debut; likely to need more time. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
No positives in novice/maiden contests (2m-2m5f) when beaten 25l, 49l, and 78l; this stablemate of Moonlight Trail needs to take major step forward for switch to handicapping; best to focus elsewhere. |
66/1 |

18th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Poor in three bumpers (turf and AW) for Sandy Thomson; embarks on hurdles career - dam was a point winner - for a new trainer; impossible to consider on all available evidence. |
