7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
No problem with conditions but she is a fully exposed maiden and likely to prove vulnerable once again. |

18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Yet to register a victory but comes here in decent nick, cheekpieces on when third of six in 5f Catterick handicap a week ago; not ruled out in her bid to score at the 19th attempt. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

0-17; didn't look entirely straightforward when fourth over C&D (Powernap runner-up) 12 days ago; she could strip fitter for that comeback run though, and it's possible the added cheekpieces may suit. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Ran well at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last August, beaten under one length into fourth in a nursery off an 8lb higher mark than today's; no progress since and he needs to leave his reappearance effort well behind him. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Didn't score heavily on the consistency front as a 2yo but his peak effort, a close fourth at Beverley last August (5f, good to firm), came off a 3lb higher mark; absent since September; stable also runs Doilookokay. |
16/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Stayed on for a close fourth at Beverley on his penultimate start (5f, good to firm); remote third at Musselburgh two weeks later; improvement required. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Won at Musselbugh (5f, good) last August but he's struggled on his last two outings, including on his reappearance at Leicester (5f, good) last month following a wind operation; best watched. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

First (5f, good) and a close third (6f, AW) in nurseries before a quiet run on good to soft at Musselburgh; returns on a competitive mark and after a wind operation; could feature. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won a Thirsk nursery (5f, good to firm) in July but that was a narrow success in a small field and she's taken three backward steps since; record is now 1-9 and others are preferred. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

Won a Thirsk nursery (5f, good to firm) last month but that was a narrow success in a small field and she's taken two backward steps since; record is now 1-8 and others are more convincing. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Finished behind Oasis Diamond at Catterick on her nursery debut last month (only run in a visor) but followed that with a narrow success at Thirsk six days later; another fair effort at Leicester two weeks ago and she should make another bold bid. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Promising third with cheekpieces added on nursery debut at Chelmsford (5f, AW) and she ran to a similar level when second of four at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm) last week; has set the pace in her last two starts and she's respected back in trip. |
9/4 |

4 (1) |
19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Modest form in her first three starts but her recent nursery debut, where she made the running over 5f at Chelmsford (AW; first-time cheekpieces, retained) was more encouraging; still has time to do better. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Not ignored in the betting on first two starts, some evidence of ability on Wolverhampton AW debut (5f) and easily excused subsequent defeats, over Beverley's stiff 5f and on good to soft at Doncaster 15 days ago; in the reckoning now handicapping with Matthew Poon an interesting booking; cheekpieces on. |

20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Poor form in four starts on turf including on nursery debut at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month; sister to an AW winner, but she needs a transformation. |
25/1 |
|
6 (5) |
27th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Bred to be a sprinter but she's struggled in novice/maiden events and has taken a strong hold at times; still early days but she was tailed off at Ripon last time and needs a transformation on nursery debut. |
14/1 |
