18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins as a 2yo, including C&D; slightly disappointing on her seasonal and handicap debut at Wolverhampton last month but it's possible the return to turf will see her in a better light. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Made all the running at Thirsk last summer and had the toe to make most in Listed company next time (both 5f); soft ground may not have been optimal when last seen six months ago and she's drawn to attack on her handicap/AW debut; player. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Made it 2-3 when winning Thirsk novice (5f, good to firm) last month before close Listed fifth at Newbury (5f, good) seven days later, when she made the running; unraced on slow ground; her trainer is in tremendous form and she might not be far away. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All starts at 5f; no impact in two Listed races after winning Ripon fillies' maiden (good) for Archie Watson last term; sights lowered for this yard but form of three handicap runs on Wolverhampton's AW suggest this extra furlong will need to give her quite the boost. |

31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |

Won a maiden for Archie Watson at Ripon (5f, good) last June; her two runs over C&D for her current trainer this year suggest she needs to come down the weights before finding another opening. |

15th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Unplaced in both nurseries for Andrew Balding and sold for 27,000gns last October; however, she was an encouraging third of 14 at 50-1 on her stable and seasonal debut at Thirsk (5f, good) four weeks ago and could build on that run today; one of two fillies for the yard; interesting contender. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

A Sandown maiden win over 5f was followed by a useful effort, beaten under 3l, in a Listed race at Newbury, but she has more to prove on 6f runs since, including on handicap debut latest; now has questions raised with cheekpieces fitted. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

A fairly useful 5f winner at 2yrs; not disgraced after six months off when a close eighth of 14 in 5f Listed race at Bath last month but this requires more. |
10/1 |
|
8th 11 (14) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Won a Chepstow maiden on her second start; big step forward when second of 23 in the Group 2 Queen Mary at Royal Ascot 11 days later; no progress afterwards but today's return to 5f should be in her favour. |
10/1 |

7th 12 (6) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Second of 23 in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); hasn't kicked on from that but her subsequent performances in a Group 3 at Ascot (6f, good; fifth) and a Listed race at Newbury (5f, good; close third) still put her in the picture today; soft ground may not have suited last time. |

8st 7lb |
Won her first two starts, notably a 5f Listed event at Newbury; improved again when second of nine in a 6f Listed race at Goodwood three weeks ago (fillies' only) on her reappearance; not fully exposed and 3yos, including three fillies, have won six of the last ten runnings. |

Landed 5f maiden (for Raphael Freire) last spring before showing much improved form to follow up for her new yard in 5f Newbury Listed event in August; only seventh of ten in Group 3 at Longchamp (5f) final run and faces no easy task on her return. |

Sole success came in a maiden over C&D last June on her second start; well held in handicaps on her last three starts; eased in grade here but hard to fancy. |
14/1 |

9th 11 (8) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
All runs at 5f; won a Wolverhampton fillies' maiden last June on her second start; good second at Nottingham one month later but she has found it much harder work since, most recently finishing last of eight at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; others appeal more. |
33/1 |

8th 7 (5) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Scored over C&D on her second start last June but could finish only ninth of 11 on her handicap debut at Thirsk (5f, good) when last seen in September; she requires a personal best to get involved here. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Broke duck on second start, at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last July; lost out only narrowly in a Salisbury novice next time but had more to do when down the field in a 5f Listed race when last seen nine months ago; race readiness the query today. |
10/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (6f, good to firm) last month on second start and very close third in Salisbury novice (6f, good to firm) since, when behind Indy B who is declared in the opener; it's possible she'll be suited by the drop back to 5f but she has quite a bit to find against today's opponents. |
25/1 |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Seemed to find 5f a touch inadequate on debut and duly proved suited by the step up to 6f at Newbury (good to firm) where she was driven out to win; the form pick. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark on her third start when taking a Windsor maiden (good to firm) in June and it was a fine effort when second of 12 in Listed event at Ayr (also 5f, soft) in September; makes her handicap debut on this reappearance and she warrants respect. |
11/2 |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

Close second to Chairmanfourtimes at Ayr but now meets that rival on slightly worse terms; comfortably held by Revival Power on York running the time before; up against it. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Close Listed fourth at Newbury last month (5f, good); beaten further when Listed fifth at York (5f, good to firm) eight days later but that form was strongly boosted in the Flying Childers; this will take less winning and she could be thereabouts for last year's winning yard; unraced on slow ground. |

0-11 but she went close when beaten a neck in Newbury Listed race in August; similar form when seventh to Revival Power in Doncaster Group 2 in September and when sixth of 14 in Bath Listed event (also 5f, good) on last month's return; likely to find a few too good again. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Failed to win in her ten 2yo starts but she was often highly tried, running her best race when second of 11 in a Listed event at Newbury (5f, good); looks to face another stiff task on her reappearance. |
33/1 |

31st Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Eight-race maiden; no impact in Group 2 at Doncaster and a Group 3 here (both at 5f) in last two starts but she went close in a Listed race at Newbury (5f, good) in August; that form puts her in the picture and she looks worth another try at this trip; yard also runs Splish Splash. |

BHA mark of 87 catches the eye but difficult to gauge what she's achieved in finishing well held in Group 3 (7f) and Listed (5f) races since her successful debut at Newbury, though does return to her winning trip here. |
