1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Big improver this season in winning three times, the latest over 2m3f here on good (handles softer); another good run last time in a Listed race at Warwick (2m5f, soft) and her form is right up there in this company; the nagging concern is that she was keen and didn't get home over 3m at Windsor two runs back, although the ground was soft. |

Others have a lot more substance to their form but she impressed when winning three mares' novice hurdles in the autumn (2m3f-2m5f, good/good to soft; also effective on soft) and failed to settle when fading over 3m last time; retains potential now back down in trip and none of the form horses arrive with rock-solid credentials; interesting contender. |

Three-time Irish point winner whose hurdles form includes a good effort at Carlisle (2m4f) behind a useful rival; fell when switched to chasing last time but has possibilities granted a clear round. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
2-3 for this yard after 2m7f/2m4f good-ground wins around Fakenham; dictated modest fractions the last time and this will be tougher off 4lb higher, but she doesn't have to lead and has to be respected. |
7/1 |

1st 7 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Came good for Lucy Wadham at second attempt, winning readily here (2m7f, good) three weeks ago; should be okay back at 2m4f and recent 5lb rise does not look excessive; could have more to offer for new stable. |
6/1 |

1st 5 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
0-15 over hurdles but posted some good efforts for the Joel Parkinson-Sue Smith stable last term and ran a big race when fifth on recent seasonal/stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft); will be suited by this move back up in trip; one to consider. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 13lb |
Below best when beaten 1-3 favourite in Wincanton Listed race in February but the ground was heavy there and she's better judged on her game win in valuable Windsor handicap (2m4f, soft) two starts ago; also suited by good ground; high on the list. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 |
14th Feb 2026 1m 7f 149y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Front-runner, who made it 2-4 over fences with a brave win a Class 2 handicap at Windsor (2m4f, soft; first run after wind surgery) last month; sets the standard on that form and she's open to more progress on this drop back in trip; strong contender. |
4/7 |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Front-running mare; won at Kempton (2m2f, good) on chase debut and not disgraced in two subsequent starts, latest when almost 5l behind Hollygrove Cha Cha at Exeter (2m1f, heavy); has had wind surgery since and now gets a 6lb pull with that rival; bred to be as effective back over 2m4f; in the mix. |

14th Feb 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Soundly beaten on last month's handicap hurdle debut (2m3f) but there was significant promise in her earlier qualifying runs and she remains very unexposed; no surprise if she displays the necessary improvement on today's chasing debut. |

1st Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Has finished tailed off on all three runs over hurdles, most recently at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) in December; however, her pedigree suggests she could improve for this step up in distance and this isn't a strong race; handicap debut. |
4/1 |

0-9 over hurdles but went close in Class 5 handicap at Warwick (2m5f, good) this month and should be fine over today's shorter trip; might have been found a good opportunity. |

2nd 5 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Failed to progress for previous stable and, having shaped with promise over C&D for new stable in January, is taking a similar path, most recently finishing a 17l third in first-time cheekpieces last month; goes up again in trip but needs to turn things around. |
12/1 |

3rd 6 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |

Failed to progress for previous stable last season and, having shaped with promise over C&D for new stable in January, took a backwards step at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month when finishing last of eight; needs the fitting of cheekpieces to get quickly back on track. |
