27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won three in a row early last year (2m4f-2m6f, good/good to soft) before keeping on well for second over 3m1f at Cheltenham (good); returned from break with good second at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) last month and she's high on the list today. |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time chase winner (good/good to soft; once over C&D); absent since very respectable third at Aintree (2m4f, good) last May but this race is easier and she features prominently in calculations. |

3rd 5 |
16th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Back in prime form towards end of last season, winning three in a row (2m4f-2m6f) before creditable second in valuable series final at Cheltenham (3m1f, good); ought to be right in the thick of things again here. |

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 |
10st 7lb |
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. |

29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Hurdle winner in 2022 (2m, good to soft) who comes into it on the pick of her chase form, a close second at Exeter (2m1f, soft) in late 2023; has to show that drying ground suits but she's entitled to have a say after needing her comeback run following an absence. |

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. |

Failed to get home, having taken a good hold, in novice hurdles; may settle better and improve with hood applied on handicap debut. |
