13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Highly progressive during last season's first chase campaign, culminating in Listed mares' win at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) in February; back to her best when beaten just over 6l by Spindleberry at Doncaster (2m4f, good; Listed) in December and she's 5lb better off with the winner today; won on heavy ground over hurdles; not ruled out each-way at forecast big odds. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
First season over fences could barely have gone much better with four wins from five starts, latterly in a 2m4f Listed event at Huntingdon (good to soft) which she won despite jumping out to her left throughout (previous wins were on left-handed tracks); every chance on these terms if resuming where she left off; goes from the front. |

7th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Placed in valuable series final over fences at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in January but rest of last season's form was disappointing and it's hard to predict whether she'll be in the right mood for this return to hurdling; tried blinkers when pulled up last time; usual cheekpieces return. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Arrested her decline when placed in valuable final of this mares' series here (2m5f, good to soft; refitted cheekpieces) in January; two lesser efforts have followed and she's unreliable nowadays but she could be too good for this field if perked up by a change of headgear. |

2nd 4 |
23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |

Made all in this race on good ground a year ago and returned to some form with third in a valuable series final at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in January; however, not so good when back at Fakenham last month and this regressive 10yo has become unreliable. |

Ran well on both previous visits to Cheltenham, latterly when second of 13 in December (2m4f, good to soft); below that form lately but will be fine over today's trip and Harry Cobden is an interesting booking. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Built on November's promising reappearance when a wide-margin winner at Fakenham (2m5f, soft), but has failed to reproduce that level since and was pulled up at Taunton eight days ago; capable off this mark but she isn't the easiest to predict. |
14/1 |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Overall record of 4-35 but her last win was a dominant display at Fakenham (2m5f, soft) in December; still looks feasibly treated on that form but she's not easy to predict and was last of eight back at Fakenham last month; risks attached. |
12/1 |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 2 |

Not the force of old but exploited favourable mark when beating Jacks Touch by 21l in two-finisher C&D (soft) contest last month, her second C&D success; also suited by much faster ground but has gone back up 7lb. |

11st 2lb |
Only win under rules came over 3m at Fakenham (good to soft) where she also didn't run too badly in a stronger race a month ago (2m5f, good); jumping can be an issue but she has a competitive show in her at this level. |
7/2 |

Placed twice since reverting to fences in November, latterly when keeping on to snatch modest third at Lingfield (2m7f, soft) last month, but might find this race too competitive. |

11st 10lb |
2-13 over fences when trained by Henry Daly, the latter win gained at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last month; yet fully to convince stamina-wise over 3m but, having recently changed hands for £22,000, still has strong claims on this stable debut. |

10th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Posted best effort of her 2025-26 campaign when neck second, clear of the remainder, at Stratford (2m3f, good) last time; appears capable of going one better, having recorded sole chase success (November 2024) off current mark. |
7/4 |

2nd 3 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made encouraging seasonal debut over 2m4f in November but has been well beaten over that trip three times since; she's suited by good ground and can outclass this field if back on song but is unraced beyond about 2m5f and arrives with a fair bit to prove. |
13/2 |
|
5th 2 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Dual chase winner in December 2024 and fairly consistent since, but she has struggled back up in class on last two starts, albeit they were some tough assignments; should appreciate this ease in class and she's capable of making her presence felt. |
4/1 |
|
8th 8 |
16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |

Struggled in similar event at Cheltenham last time, ending a reasonably consistent spell of form; faces another difficult assignment and may need a return to calmer waters; gained her only wins in Class 4 and Class 5 in December 2024. |

11st 3lb |
1-22; has dropped markedly in the weights over the past six months (form figures P5UP03); trainer seems to have his string in better form now, and she did rally from a tough position when modest third at Kelso (3m; good, 22-1) latest; no forlorn hope. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |

C&D winner who finished third on her final two outings last season and is well treated on that form; however, she's struggled to get competitive on her seven starts this term and has plenty to prove. |

25th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Back below the mark of November's mares' handicap win at Fakenham (2m6f, good to soft); rarely operated at that level since, with little about two latest runs suggesting April's wind surgery has done anything for her. |

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

Won over fences last season (2m5f, good to soft) but it was an up-and-down campaign in both disciplines; ran moderately on the back of wind surgery on return to hurdles at Southwell but certainly has a big run in her if she can rediscover her form. |

Gained both chase wins at Hereford (3m1f, good) but her best form over fences was arguably her third here (2m4f, good to soft; just behind So Said I) in December; another minor role might be her best hope from just out of the weights today, though. |
