22nd Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
Stayed on well to win on her hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in November; good third at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) next time but tailed off on handicap debut at Sandown (2m4f, soft) last month; maybe the return to better ground will help; one of three in this for her stable. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 173y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Soft-ground 3m point runner-up who stayed on well to win on her hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in November, before a fair third at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) in December; improvement is needed off her opening mark but this unexposed mare is in good hands to progress. |

18th Dec 2024 Good To Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Only really minor promise in two Southwell bumpers, and likely the form of last month's Uttoxeter hurdles debut win (2m, good; just held on) is moderate; half-sister to a 2m3f hurdles scorer for this yard, however, suggesting improvement for the longer trip is far from unfeasible. |

8th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Won this race readily by over 9l a year ago (good ground) and was placed over C&D on next two outings; returned from break with two down-the-field runs this summer (cheekpieces added last time) but is back on a good mark now and the return to this track is sure to suit. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Always behind at Market Rasen last month, after a break; she's better than that but all her best form is on sharp right-handed tracks, and she probably doesn't want significant rain; sports new cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Her only win was in a Ludlow mares' handicap in October last year (2m5f, good); fair run at Huntingdon last time (May) but likely to improve for this outing after 100-day break. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won a novice here (2m5f, good to soft) in December 2024 but she's been up and down in handicaps since; finished second of five at Newbury (3m, soft) in February but she didn't fire at Chepstow (2m3f) last time; now goes back up in trip and down in grade but this is competitive and others are more persuasive. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
0-2 over fences and back hurdling on last two starts, most recently outstayed by the winner over 3m at Newbury (soft); neither hurdle wins were in handicaps but this mark is fine; should run well. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
17th Feb 2026 3m 0f 57y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Well handicapped on peak hurdle form and her second on chase debut in September; pulled up next time and didn't offer much back over hurdles at Kempton, and that was three months ago. |

3rd Feb 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
A well-beaten outsider in three maiden/novice hurdles (2m-2m5f); might be of greater interest once the handicapper has seen fit to give her a mark. |

21st Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Could improve for handicaps after showing a bit more in her latest maiden (beaten 16l) but her pedigree suggests that she'll need further than this. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |

Off a reduced mark she finally showed more when a 3l third over 3m at Southwell last month (good) and she would appear to have found her level; respected. |

3rd 6 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Eight-race maiden who isn't obviously getting closer to a first handicap success despite falling in the weights, beaten 34l into fifth over 3m1f at Huntingdon last time. |
8/1 |

1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |

Seven-race maiden; edging down the weights and has shown her stamina over 3m2f at Hereford (soft/good) but others look more compelling for the win; 7lb claimer replaces 3lb claimer. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Came good over hurdles at sixth attempt, making all in five-runner contest at Fakenham (2m7f, good) in June, but the form isn't anything to go wild about and she was pulled up in Uttoxeter race won by Cinderello last month. |

16th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |

Came good over hurdles at sixth attempt, making all in five-runner contest at Fakenham (2m7f, good) last month; will find it tougher to dominate this much deeper race but further progress is possible. |
