14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 4lb |
Last month's keeping-on second at Bangor (2m1f, good to soft) came in just a run-of-the-mill handicap and she's now 0-4 over fences but she's unexposed over this sort of trip and may still have a bigger run in her; unraced on ground quicker than good to soft. |

2nd 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Winning hurdler; has got closer in each of her three runs over fences, last time beaten 5.5l at Warwick (2m, good to soft); could well have more to offer. |
100/30 |

4th 1 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Well beaten on chasing debut in January and probably didn't achieve a great deal when second of three behind short-odds winner at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last month; remains lightly raced but needs improvement here. |

24th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Returns to hurdling after going 0-5 over fences, producing only one effort of real note; nothing wrong with her mark if getting back in this discipline floats her boat. |
5/1 |
|
6th 7 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
No match for Irish Chorus here in March but she's got a handy pull in the weights with that rival and she lost a shoe when beaten 12l at Stratford; not discounted. |
3/1 |

3rd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Yet to add to her two hurdling successes (at about 2m4f) in this sphere but she comes here after a very good second of six in 2m Warwick handicap 20 days ago; that form is working out well so she's a big player eased 1lb for yard back among the winners. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 146y Class 3 |
10st 11lb |
Won a Huntingdon maiden (2m5f) last February and took a four-runner handicap at Plumpton (2m2f; second-time cheekpieces) 13 days ago, and good ground is probably okay, but to win this demands a career best. |
6/1 |

1st 2 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 169y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Yet to build on her Huntingdon maiden hurdle win last February but she's gone close since; returned to some form when a 12l fourth at this level at Ludlow (2m5f, soft) last month, running without her usual tongue-tie but fitted with first-time cheekpieces; drops in trip here and eased in the weights, so worth considering. |
2/1 |
|
4th 3 |
4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Low-mileage 6yo who won Huntingdon maiden (2m4f, good to soft) just under a year ago; failed to build upon encouraging seasonal/handicap debut when well-held fourth at Sandown (2m4f, soft) in December but has possibilities if aided by new cheekpieces here; tongue-tie left off. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
First and second in her two previous visits here, latterly over this far in first-time cheekpieces in November; below best in her last two races (3m/2m4f) and appears to have little margin for error off this mark; absent since January. |
12/1 |

4th 5 |
18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 1y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time cheekpieces when clear second at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November and ran well for a long way before fading into fifth at Kempton (3m, good) just after Christmas; this drop back in trip looks the right move; probably won't be far away. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Looked a bit unlucky not to win at Uttoxeter last time (2m4f, good to soft) but wouldn't be certain to run as well again given her inconsistency; 5lb above the only mark she's defied in a handicap and a 7lb claimer was employed last time. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won on seasonal debut at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November but has mixed record in three subsequent runs and was tailed off at Ascot (2m7f, good to soft) last month; still has low mileage but she's been hard to predict and needs to bounce back again. |
5/1 |

14th 14 |
14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 123y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Won on seasonal debut at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November and put a poor run behind her when fourth of 17 at Newbury (3m, good to soft) month, where a last-flight jumping error cost her momentum; suited by soft ground (unraced on heavy) and still unexposed at around 3m. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Had a near miss at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) but now has to bounce back from three lesser efforts; wears a first-time visor. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 4f 118y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Has performed moderately the last twice but her near miss behind One Eye On Vegas at Leicester in December (2m4f, soft) brings her into this; hard to be confident about her chances, though. |
25/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Campaigned mostly over further (stays 2m6f); ran poorly last time, failing to back up her reappearance effort; 2-2 at Ffos Las but this drop back in trip presents a question mark. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 1 |
10st 12lb |
Held up; 1-9 over hurdles but 5lb lower than when fourth under Murray Dodd at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) in December, her best form; no match for Indannya or Fresh As A Daisy at Warwick next time, but her latest start (pulled up at Ludlow; tongue tied first time) is the chief worry. |
16/1 |

4th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 5f 55y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Just 1-8 over hurdles but kept on well to take fourth from out of the weights in good Cheltenham handicap (2m4f, good to soft) in December and also ran well when placed in Warwick novice (2m5f, good to soft) at end of that month; won't be far away if she copes with the slower ground here; tongue-tie added. |
