17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 111y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three of her four wins have come here on good or good to soft, including over this trip; well treated on her form of late 2024; has been well below that level since over both hurdles and fences; back down in grade for this return to hurdles but there's a bit to prove at present. |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 150y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won twice over hurdles towards the end of 2024 but has lost her way since and things have not gone well in two chase runs (tailed off/unseated) this winter; has something to prove and she's never won over this far. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
4-15 over hurdles; absent since modest fourth of seven in low-grade Newton Abbot handicap (2mf, good) in May, though, and set a tough assignment on this chasing debut; cheekpieces removed after one use. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Exposed mare who was winning her first handicap when a clearcut winner at Bangor (2m, good); effectively off the same mark with William Maggs' claim erasing the 5lb rise and shouldn't be too inconvenienced should it get wet. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Still just a Ludlow novice win on her CV (2m, good); cheekpieces haven't provoked any major improvement but she continues in fair heart, finding only one completing a hat-trick too good for her at Cartmel latest. |
7/4 |

24th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Fairly consistent in handicaps since her Ludlow novice win (2m, good) just over a year ago; drops back in trip after perfectly respectable second at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) last month and probably won't be far away. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Huntingdon mares' handicap winner (2m, good) on penultimate start for Chris Gordon just over a year ago, but basically regressive since; 3lb out of the weights this time and not hard to pass over. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Now 20lb lower than when winning over 2m for Chris Gordon just over a year ago but has badly lost her way; huge leap of faith is required to support her. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Sole success came at Huntingdon (2m, good) last May when trained by Chris Gordon; hasn't shown anywhere near the same form since. |

27th Dec 2024 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 4 |
10st 9lb
|
Rewarded very patient Gavin Sheehan ride when winning here (2m3f, good to soft) last month but has a very mixed record this year and her current mark probably demands a career-best performance. |

15th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Likely unsuited by soft ground last time and is better judged on her respectable form earlier in November; however, has something to prove back over 2m, having looked best at 2m3f/2m4f. |

21st Apr 2025 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three Flat wins early in 2023 and another at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) that November on second start over hurdles; back from a year off with creditable third on handicap hurdle debut at Hereford in the autumn but she's not gone on from that and was only third of four at Market Rasen last month; mark continues to fall but she's now 1-7 over hurdles and others are more convincing; cheekpieces added. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Well held by Chuggy on her chase debut/reappearance at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in October but she was by no means done with when coming down at the last at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) three weeks ago; got a 1lb nudge for that and should be competitive if it hasn't left a mark. |

29th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Dual 2m course winner over hurdles, most recently off 2lb lower; shaped as though her chase debut was needed this month when back from a break and her pedigree suggests she may improve for this longer trip. |
