15th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Seen far more often over hurdles in recent years and she's pretty useful, but pulled up in March on latest outing; stiff task in a three-runner race last September and that's her only Flat run since a creditable show over C&D (good to firm) in June 2022; down the weights but not solid. |

12st 0lb |
Won two handicaps in a row at Sedgefield (2m4f, good/good to soft) towards the end of last year before tough Grade 2 task at Doncaster; however, only fifth when back in a handicap at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) last month and needs a bigger performance this afternoon. |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |
20/1 |

6th 4 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time winner at 1m2f (good to firm) although that was back in 2022/23 and his last success came over 1m6f at Sandown in July; tailed off on final start last term and two runs (1m4f) this season contained little encouragement. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner but he ended 2025 below par and beat one on his return from six months off in 1m4f Kempton handicap three weeks ago; needs to take a major step forward. |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins last year including one over hurdles and two over this trip on the Flat; just 2lb above his last winning mark, but needs to put a tame effort at Nottingham (1m6f, good) last month behind him. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
An excellent Flat campaign last year yielded three turf wins under Rose Dawes from May to October and he's been in AW/hurdles action this winter; absent 11 weeks but has to be considered seriously. |
11/2 |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Both hurdle wins have been here, the latest over this trip last April (good; off 3lb lower); three Flat wins since, including on soft ground; should go well. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
2-11 on the Flat for Ed Walker, the latter win gained in April (1m6f, good to firm; RPR 77); ground slower than good would be new to him but he can be competitive here if he takes well to hurdling at the first attempt. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten in three runs for new stable (Flat/hurdles) this spring; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival; blinkers return and visor is removed. |
25/1 |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten on both starts for new stable last month (hurdle/Flat); might be aided by refitted visor and/or first-time tongue-tie here but has lots to prove. |
33/1 |

8th 1 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner during busy summer for James Owen last year but well beaten (over hurdles) on stable debut on Tuesday and returns to the Flat with quite a bit to prove. |
33/1 |
