2nd 7 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
2-6 for Adam Nichol and was only just denied off 3lb lower at Market Rasen a month ago (2m4f, good); in form and should stay this far. |
11/2 |

2nd 5 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
2-5 for new stable this year; gained the wins on heavy and good to soft ground but coped perfectly well with good ground when close third at Kelso (2m5f; first-time tongue-tie) last month; hood (worn for three of her last four races) is discarded; likely contender again. |
9/4 |

3rd 8 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Won when the hood went back on at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) in January and followed up at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft); disappointing at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last time but she was missing the hood, which returns today along with a first-time tongue-tie; could have a part to play. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Arrives in good nick since sent handicapping, third of six at Huntingdon (2m4f) in February; not out of things in her bid for a maiden victory. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
19th Feb 2026 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Had looked very limited and went off 100-1 for handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) but in a first-time tongue-tie she was best of the rest behind an odds-on winner; that improvement brings her into the reckoning. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Showed no significant promise when a 300-1 outsider for three 2m novice hurdles in the autumn; upped in trip with tongue-tie added for handicap debut; significant improvement required. |

10st 3lb |
Consistent in defeat last autumn and winter (2m3f-2m4f) but well below best since returning from three-month break this spring (three runs), and was pulled up over C&D on only previous visit here. |
12/1 |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Consistent without winning last autumn and winter, but checked out tamely behind Lady Fortune on last month's return here (2m6f, good); mixed record of seeing out stayers' trips, an Irish point win notwithstanding. |

Came good over hurdles at ninth attempt, keeping on well for Daniel Williams at Hereford (2m3f, good) last month; only 3lb higher here and further progress is possible; respected. |
2/1 |

1st 2 |
7th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Went close in a 2m course handicap (good to soft) off just 1lb lower last winter; weakened approaching the last as if probably just needing her first outing for 11 months when fourth over an extended 2m4f at Southwell 33 days ago; should be spot on now. |
5/2 |

4th 1 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
0-7 over hurdles; returned to form with close/clear second at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in December 2024, after a break, but not quite at same level at Doncaster last March and absent for another 11 months since. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Has won two of her last three races (pulled up on soft ground in between), the latest over C&D eight days ago (good) when a few of today's rivals were behind her; up 6lb; should go well again. |
6/1 |
|
1st 10 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Benefited from the drop back to 2m and first-time cheekpieces when scoring over C&D in April but never travelled with the same zest when returned here the following month; soft ground a possible excuse that day and she is not without claims if rediscovering that earlier form. |
13/2 |
|
9 |
9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and first-time cheekpieces when finishing well to snatch victory over C&D (good to soft) last month; her overall profile remains unconvincing but she's effectively only 1lb higher today and features prominently in calculations. |

Longstanding maiden who hasn't been showing much for a while now; plenty to find with Kellebelle on latest run; visor now tried. |

16th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Maiden who is out of the weights and can hardly appeal on recent efforts but she did at least finish close up over C&D last April and has dropped a long way in the weights since; visor added (often wears cheekpieces). |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Made all for clearcut success at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) in December, her sixth start over hurdles, and again ran well before fading into fourth at Doncaster (2m3f, soft) ten days ago; likely contender. |
5/1 |

4th 4 |
23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Runner-up on the Flat and over hurdles in the autumn (including on soft ground) before getting off the mark at the 19th attempt (her sixth run over hurdles) at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) last month; made all by 4l under Aaron Anderson and she's respected up 7lb. |

10st 8lb |
Seven-race maiden who has not finished closer than 13l to a winner and was laboured in a Hereford handicap (2m3f, good) last month; dropped another 3lb but she needs a transformation back in trip. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 |
18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |

Tailed off in her first four handicaps but ran a lot better to be fourth at Huntingdon a month ago (2m3f, heavy); however, she has ground to make up on the second After Many Days. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Turned things around when scoring at Wincanton (1m7f, good) in April and she followed up under a penalty Taunton (2m, good); came up a bit short in hat-trick bid over C&D (good to firm) last month but that was another good effort and she still looks on a workable mark; shortlisted. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Relished the drop in trip and front-running tactics when getting off the mark in this sphere at Wincanton (1m7f, good; 25-1) last month; showed that was no fluke when following up at Taunton (2m, good) ten days later; 8lb higher here but this track should play to her strengths and looks the one to beat. |
4/5 |
|
1st 8 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Showed little in three runs at around 2m4f this season before finally opening her account over hurdles at the 12th attempt, when a switch to front-running tactics and a drop in trip at Wincanton (1m7f, good) ten days ago brought about the decisive breakthrough; subsequent penalty may not be enough to prevent another bold showing if she can replicate the effort. |

Close third of six on seasonal/handicap debut at Leicester (1m7f, soft) in November and also ran well when fifth of 13 at Hereford (2m3f, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie) in December; considered each-way. |
8/1 |

6th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
30l eighth on debut at Chepstow (2m, heavy) in January and well behind in third when unseating at Lingfield (2m, soft) recently; her attractive pedigree suggests she won't come into her own until tackling further. |
50/1 |

20th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
