19th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
0-8 over hurdles; didn't fire when last of four at Bangor (2m, good) last month but ran quite well when fourth at Cartmel (2m1f, good) two starts ago and is now 7lb below that mark; not out of this. |

10st 13lb |
Ran fairly well in three of her four handicaps, most recently when keeping-on fourth at Cartmel (2m1f, good; hood refitted) in July; needs to find something extra here but ought to cope if the ground eases. |

Launched handicap career with two respectable runs (both 2m, good) towards end of last season but, following a wind op, took backward step when safely held at Uttoxeter on Wednesday; sports refitted hood here; improvement required. |

10st 10lb |
Only a modest sixth at Huntingdon (good) but may improve with that experience under his belt; Sean Bowen, who has a respectable strike-rate for this stable, is a positive booking. |
