12th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Mainly consistent last year, including a win in a Chepstow maiden (6f, good), and her final effort can be forgiven on account of the draw; has to overcome a 230-day absence, though, and she has the outside stall. |
12/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Proving consistent and is better off with Carefree Dream on Bath nursery running last time; however, along with that rival she's going into unknown territory on first run beyond 6f. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soft ground will be a first but she was well on top in a 6f maiden at Chepstow a month ago (good) and that was her best form yet; doesn't look handicapped out of contention off this mark, especially with Elizabeth Gale taking off 5lb. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Expensive to follow in first seven starts but he's scored in cheekpieces in two of his last three runs, including a comfortable success at Pontefract (6f, soft) last Monday; this is tougher under a penalty but he's open to more progress and is versatile ground-wise; big player. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Had been expensive to follow but first-time cheekpieces did the trick when a clearcut winner at Brighton (maiden over an extended 5f; good); now 5lb higher than when narrowly held in his two previous handicaps but that rise is erased by Jack Callan's claim; soft ground a first. |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent yet frustrating sort who has a habit of finishing second and has been a beaten favourite on four occasions; comes with some risk but first-time headgear may enable him to go one better. |

21st May 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive during last year's eight-race campaign, finishing second in a nursery at Nottingham (6f, heavy) last October and going one better there (5f, soft) six days later; reappears with conditions in her favour; chance. |
3/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
In the frame in four of last five starts and proven on a soft surface, second of 12 when forcing the pace here (6f, heavy) six days ago; return to 5f shouldn't be an issue and she is respected off same mark. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Failed to progress for Andrew Balding and she was well beaten on her stable debut at Newcastle 128 days ago (6f; 50-1); dropping down the weights but she is on a recovery mission. |

6th 3 (6) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

0-6 for Andrew Balding, finishing last of four in a Ffos Las nursery (5f, heavy) last time; makes stable/AW debut having been picked up for just 1,000gns last month; needs better. |
9/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Not progressing and the switch to soft ground didn't help matters at Bath two weeks ago; dropped 2lb but needs a jolt of improvement. |

Won small-field 5f handicap on soft ground here last September; stiff task at Goodwood 11 days later; absent since and looks on a tough mark. |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Sprinting filly who opened her account in Bath nursery (5f, soft) most recently; faces a much stiffer assignment on these terms and is far from guaranteed to see out the new trip. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Improved form when runner-up on nursery debut at Chepstow (5f, good) last August but he flopped at Bath (last of six) in his final run for John O'Shea; been gelded since and has bit to prove for new yard after 233 days off. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Flattered to push the winner quite so close on his nursery debut at Chepstow (5f, good) but that shows he can win races off this mark; unraced on soft and his useful dam appreciated a quick surface. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
14th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Appeared to display significant improvement when seventh of nine in Windsor novice (5f, good) last month, his third start, but may have been flattered by his proximity there and probably needs to kick on again here. |
