20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Losing run is mounting up, as are a string of big defeats; has won over hurdles and fences but she needs to get back on track. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
2-31 over hurdles (soft/heavy) but the losing run is mounting up, as are a string of big defeats; the latest of those came at Hereford just eight days ago and she's out of the weights again. |
12/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won twice over hurdles in 2023 (about 2m7f) and once over fences (2m4f) in Feburary 2025, all in the mud; beaten at least 20l on all completions this season, she's opposable despite her fall in the weights. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Had a straightforward task when winning her second race over fences at Market Rasen (3m, good to soft) last month; up 7lb but still on the upgrade and should be thereabouts. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Easy winner of a mares' chase at Huntingdon in April last year (2m7f, good); fair fourth at Fakenham in January on reappearance; conditions suit; one with a chance. |
9/4 |

26th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ended last season with an account-opening win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good); didn't live up to market expectations on Fakenham reappearance last month but may have needed that run and she still has low mileage; in the mix with tongue-tie added. |

25th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Defied a 4lb higher mark over hurdles at Exeter last February; has failed to repeat the form since but this drop in class may prompt a resurgent display; third chase attempt. |

6th Feb 2025 Heavy 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
8l winner at Exeter (2m, heavy) last February in her first handicap but beaten at least 20l in her three starts since, the latest when switched to fences on reappearance three weeks ago; returns to her winning mark but needs a return to that sort of form. |
8/1 |

25th Feb 2024 Heavy 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Finished second in 2m1f-2m6f chase contests on last three starts in France; sold for 130,000euros and had wind surgery since; likely player provided she maintains the consistency on British debut. |

25th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Still a maiden and has the weakest form claims in this field; consequently easy to oppose. |
33/1 |

7th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Modest at best and fell last time on second chase start, after a year off; hooded once (2023) and now tries cheekpieces; 3lb out of the handicap. |
