24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Landed valuable series final for mares at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in March but was just a respectable third of five at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) last month and needs subsequent wind surgery to help her kick on again. |

Went up 10lb for winning by 8l at Kelso in March and finished well beaten next time at Uttoxeter; could be on a harsh mark now and would prefer drier ground. |

Took form to whole new level when winning valuable series final by 8l at Kelso (2m, good to soft) in March and is now 3-6 over hurdles; returns from 127-day break on 10lb higher mark but good ground also suits; shortlisted. |

Couldn't hold on having been committed some way out on each recent C&D start, though split Perseus Way and Johnson's Blue in the first (soft) and recorded her best ever good-ground form in the latest; thereabouts. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Failed to build on an encouraging return over fences in November, but latest effort over hurdles following a break was a good step forward when a close second over C&D ten days ago; nudged up 3lb for that and yet to win in handicap company, which suggests she possibly remains on a tough enough mark. |

10st 11lb |
Untested at this trip under rules but there have been hints that she'll stay this far; in good form against fellow mares this winter prior to tailing off in the Imperial Cup at Sandown last month; takes on her own sex today and it will be no surprise to see a bold showing. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Having shown some good form in defeat in handicaps (on various ground) she made the breakthrough in this sphere in a small-field, mares-only race at Exeter (2m, heavy) a fortnight ago; had 5l to spare but she'll need to be better than ever to follow up in this much more competitive contest. |

20th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 161y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Sole win over hurdles came in a mares' novice at Lingfield (2m, soft) a year ago and she's still seeking her first handicap success, though she has posted some solid placed efforts, latest when a good second at Windsor (2m4f, soft) on New Year's Day; return to heavy ground will pose no problem and she's sure to be involved. |

Below par at Wincanton in December and turned over at odds-on at Ludlow last month, following wind surgery; however, she's not ruled out in view of the promise she showed on her first two hurdle starts in November. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Last season started well but petered out and it might be happening again, as although it wasn't a bad run behind Cheltenham Festival heroine White Noise two starts back, Chepstow last time was underwhelming (well behind Siog Geal; soft ground no excuse). |
20/1 |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Narrowly made a successful reappearance at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) off 5lb lower; worrying that last season petered out after starting well, though it was by no means a bad run at Newbury when 11l behind White Noise who won the Dawn Run at Cheltenham on Thursday; goes well fresh. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 33y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won a maiden hurdle on last season's return before delivering her best form yet when second in Newbury Listed race (2m, good to soft); her three runs after the turn of the year were disappointing, leaving her with a point to prove now. |

7-23 overall and she arrives on a roll after wins over hurdles at Hexham (2m, good to soft) in June and on the Flat here (1m5f, good to soft) in September; should make a chaser and could be hard to peg back if getting into a good rhythm. |

Comfortably made all in three-runner maiden on hurdle/stable debut at Plumpton (2m, good) in November; her two subsequent novice runs have been on soft ground and she was a creditable second behind Tour Ovalie at Taunton (2m, soft) last month; benefits from sizeable pull in the weights with that rival today and retains potential now back on better ground for handicap debut. |

Resumed winning ways at Ludlow (2m) in December and in good form until finishing last of ten in 2m4f Sandown handicap four weeks ago; the sort who might bounce back though. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 178y Class 2 |

Gained all six hurdle wins at around 2m but ran quite well when fourth at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) last month; current mark is workable (even from 1lb out of the weights) and Sean Bowen takes over today; could have a say. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Modest form under both codes for David Pipe; she has proved a different proposition since joining Rod Millman, running away with a small-field Class 5 at Chepstow (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago and making light of her penalty at York (1m4f, good to firm) last week; didn't look straightforward under pressure there but she was well on top at the finish and Oisin Murphy replaces an apprentice today; 7lb ahead of her mark and she's a major player. |
6/5 |

1st 8 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has done most of her recent racing over hurdles (0-15) but returned to the Flat to land a second career success easily in 1m4f Chepstow handicap (good to firm) last Friday, her first outing for Rod Millman; 3lb well in under her penalty and likely to be popular with Toby Moore able to claim 7lb against fellow apprentices. |
100/30 |

1st 5 (5) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won a maiden at Ballinrobe in June 2023 when trained by Joseph O'Brien; well beaten over hurdles on her final two outings for David Pipe but she did run creditably on the Flat in February; market support would be interesting on her first start for another new stable. |

Went very close when upped to 3m at Musselburgh (good to soft) in December; also effective on soft ground; only fourth of eight at Musselburgh (3m, good to soft) since and could do with settling better but not ruled out. |
