6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
1-18; beaten favourite her last four starts, but is holding form (3523), going under by less than a length to Virtual Hug over 1m4f here (same mark) five weeks ago; fine over this shorter trip, and has a capable claimer back aboard. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Opened account with clearcut success at Lingfield (1m2f) in December and has remained in good form since; may not have had enough use made of her when dropped back to 8.6f here a fortnight ago but still ran well; also suited by 1m4f; leading contender. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Only 1-16 but she's a versatile and consistent filly who is effective at 1m-1m4f; drops back in trip, having taken a good hold the last twice; possibilities with Harry Vigors taking off a useful 7lb. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
0-6 but she was beaten only 2l when fourth of nine at Kempton (2m, AW; winner and runner-up have won since); dropped away at Wolverhampton (2m, AW; first-time cheekpieces) five days ago having sat closer to the pace than ideal; headgear quickly discarded; may bounce back. |
4/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Five-race maiden; improved effort (2l fourth) upped to 2m at Kempton most recently; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |

8st 8lb |
Failed to cut much ice in AW middle-distance maiden/novice contests in the spring and well held on heavy-gound Windsor handicap debut (11.5f)) on return from a break 17 days ago; another who takes a big step up in trip. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-race maiden; beaten favourite switched to handicap level last time (1m2f) but is bred to do better still, being related to a few winners for his owner, and can't be written off. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Positives to take from each of his three starts over 1m in novice/maiden company; it looks as if he'll come into his own over 1m2f+ and the fact his sister Miss Dolly Rocker won at up to 1m4f bodes well; interesting handicap debutant; hood no longer deemed necessary. |
100/30 |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown some promise when mid-division at Windsor (1m, good/good to firm) on his first two starts, both last month; may not come into his own until tackling further but still has an each-way chance today. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
A mild improver since handicapping, beating two subsequent dual winners at Ripon (1m4f, good) in July, and she finished well clear with the winner at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft) last month; likely to be close up. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Steady improvement in handicaps since June and she won a four-runner Ripon handicap (1m4f, good) in July; 4lb higher but was beaten only a head at Windsor (11.5f, heavy) 17 days ago; up another 2lb but her gradual progression is appealing. |
7/4 |

1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 421 since handicapping includes a solid effort over C&D (good to firm); Ripon win (1m4f, good) has been boosted by the runner-up since; respected with further improvement plausible. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Gained her maiden win at Southwell; has inconsistent handicap form but ran encouragingly at Kempton on penultimate start and returns to this venue off an attractive mark; added hood may help her to settle better than last time; interesting. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Slow start to her handicap career but there has been more encouragement on her last two runs, fourth over C&D four weeks ago when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; one for the shortlist. |
6/1 |
|
8th 9 (2) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won handicap debut at Windsor (heavy) in September and creditable fifth at Yarmouth (good) next time, both over an extended 1m3f; left Ed Walker for 32,000gns later in October and behind on both runs (1m4f; 25-1 and 28-1) this season, so seems best watched for now. |

Won handicap debut at Windsor (11.5f, heavy) in September and creditable fifth at Yarmouth (11.5f, good) the following month; left Ed Walker for 32,000gns in October and last week's reappearance (25-1) did not suggest an imminent return to winning form. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 110y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
AW Flat winner at 1m; in the frame in three juvenile hurdles in the autumn but was treading water when finishing remote on handicap debut at Windsor (2m, good) recently and the step up in trip has to be a query. |
16/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Fair Flat racer; weakened into well-held fourth on recent hurdling debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good) but some positives can be drawn from that performance and he may have learnt from the experience. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

1m AW maiden winner 12 months ago; also placed on first run of this year but has regressed since; blinkers did nothing last time, albeit on heavy ground (1m3f); bit risky on this hurdling debut. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |

0-8 on the Flat and 0-5 as a hurdler; he's modest in this discipline but was third in a handicap last time and at least he has jumping experience. |
11/4 |

3rd 5 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Fair on the Flat; probably only sixth best on merit when fourth on handicap debut here (2m3f, good) three weeks ago but positives can be drawn from that performance and he might have more to offer over this longer trip. |
7/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
11-race maiden under both codes; tailed off in last two hurdle runs but he showed some promise when runner-up in a juvenile event here (2m2f, good to soft) in November; now goes handicapping at this new trip and he needs watching in market after 111 days off; cheekpieces reapplied. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 5lb

Remains winless but he shaped well in first-time blinkers for his new yard when second of eight in 8.5f handicap at Beverley last month; can go well again in retained headgear if his stamina holds out over this much longer trip. |

2nd 2 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sold for 9,000gns since his sole start (2m) for Micky Hammond; still a maiden and drops back markedly in trip but has possibilities on the pick of his form for William Knight; wears new headgear on debut for Ed Bethell; market may offer further guidance. |
4/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

9st 4lb |
He's on a handy mark on his form last June/July, when winning over C&D, and a market check is advised on his reappearance; however, he went off the boil last autumn and returns minus cheekpieces (worn when winning). |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
C&D win in first-time cheekpieces off 5lb lower in June has been boosted by those behind since; latest effort, over further on heavy ground, is probably best ignored and he's one to consider for a yard among the winners over jumps of late. |
6/1 |
|
9 (8) |
1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Record since wearing cheekpieces comprises an account-opening win at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) and two placed efforts, close third at Nottingham latest; solid claims in the retained headgear. |
