7th 6 (5) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won her first two starts for Ruth Carr, at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) and Ripon (5f, good), but she folded rather tamely under a penalty at Beverley two weeks ago; another 3lb higher today. |
12/1 |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
2-2 since joining Ruth Carr, winning 5f handicaps at Thirsk last month and at Ripon last week; penalty for the latest small-field success demands more and a double-figure stall isn't ideal either. |
2/1 |

1st 1 (4) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
She'd run some good races in defeat this year for the Newland/Insole yard prior to being sold for 12,000gns last month, and she exploited a reduced mark on her stable debut at Thirsk (5f, good to firm); she had just a neck to spare and is back up 4lb but could have more to offer for the yard. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Dual 5f winner (Beverley and Musselburgh); couldn't match stronger finishing kick of Mighty Magnus (runner-up, beaten over 1l) at Musselburgh in June; is easing slightly in the weights but still sits 8lb above her last winning mark. |
33/1 |
|
17th 14 (18) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ran well for second at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month; respectable fourth of 14 at York (6f, good) since but she's yet to win from a mark in the 80s. |

2nd 7 (2) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Listed win as a 2yo and she was successful in this grade at Ayr (5f, soft) in June too; no impact in a Goodwood Group 2 last time and vulnerable under her penalty, for all she's well drawn and will handle conditions. |
10/1 |
|
14th 14 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up in the Group 3 Molecomb (5f, good) over C&D 12 months ago and returned to form with Listed win at Ayr (5f, soft) last month; however, it's likely she'll come up short now back up in grade. |
25/1 |
|
1st 10 (7) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Listed winner as a 2yo (6f, good to firm); running creditably in defeat this year and has the second highest BHA rating in the field but likely vulnerable to anything progressive. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice as a 2yo; she has found the going tougher this time around but the handicapper is relenting and this should be more suitable; others still look more appealing; stable runs two. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Gained two 5f wins (good to firm and AW) last summer but has found things tougher this year; drops in grade after contesting the 3yo Dash at Epsom last time but she carries risks nonetheless. |
6/1 |
|
11th 16 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Two 5f wins (good to firm and AW) last summer but she has been weighted to her best this year and was well beaten in a Beverley seller (first-time cheekpieces, now discarded) last month; up against it. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Went close in the Hilary Needler at Beverley (5f, good) in May when clear with Wednesday's Molecomb runner-up, and similar form when close fourth of five in Group 3 at Chantilly (6f, good to soft) next time; well beaten in C&D Listed race latest but that was her first run on fast ground; not ruled out. |
5/1 |
|
7 (2) |
26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won at Musselburgh on second start; ties in very closely with Argentine Tango on Hilary Needler form and subsequently appeared to run well in small-field Group 3 at Chantilly (6f, good to soft); has progressive RPRs and leading claims. |
6/1 |
|
6 (3) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
105,000gns yearling; ran below market expectations on Newmarket debut but showed her true colours when coming from last to first in a small field at Musselburgh (good); others have achieved more but this filly is well regarded. |
11/2 |
