24th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Shot up 16lb for her back-to-back wins (2m3f/2m5f) and, although a bad mistake was no help when last to finish at Carlisle, it could be that the handicapper has caught up with her. |

3rd 3 |
8th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Thriving mare who bids to compete a hat-trick after clear wins at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) and over C&D (good to soft) this year; shooting up the weights but needs to be taken very seriously in current form. |
4/5 |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won by 10l on reappearance here (2m4f, soft) in November and, after not staying 3m at Ayr, she bounced back with an easy, all-the-way win at Wetherby (2m3f, soft) 12 days ago; 8lb higher in a tougher race today but this progressive 8yo could still be ahead of the handicapper. |

13th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won a handicap chase over 3m here in April 2025; fair form over fences last season (third over 3m here in April) and could go well on first hurdles run since February 2025; cheekpieces now tried. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won this race in first-time blinkers off a pound lower mark 12 months ago (good to soft); hasn't run quite as well in three starts this season and now tried in a visor; a possible. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Better could have been expected at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month but a case can be made on her earlier form, with a win at Perth (3m, good to soft) last April and an encouraging second on her comeback at Carlisle (2m5f, good to soft) in February; not written off. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 198y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Just one win from her 11 chase starts and inconsistent this season but she ran okay in the face of a tough task when third of five in Listed race at Newbury (2m7f, good to soft) three weeks ago; capable of having a big say now back in a handicap. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 |
14th Jan 2026 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Record of only 1-10 over fences and rather exposed; distant second on penultimate start and never landed a blow in competitive handicap at Cheltenham latest; however, best form suggests she can achieve a top-three finish in this field. |
10/1 |

17th Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 127y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Four-time hurdle winner and prevailed narrowly in a 2m4f mares' handicap chase at Kempton in November (good); hasn't really threatened to go in again since then and cheekpieces are added to the tongue-tie tried last time. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Won over C&D off this mark in March last year (good to soft); plenty of decent efforts since, including when third at Kelso last time (2m5f, good); each-way chance. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 10 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 133y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
A case can be made on form as recent as November but she failed to shine on her two starts in February and needs to raise her game. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 |
15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won two 2m4f chases last season (good/good to soft) and gave good account when clear second over C&D (good to soft) in the autumn; recent defeat from out of the weights can be overlooked and she won't mind if the ground remains soft; good chance. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Failed to build on an encouraging return over fences in November, but latest effort over hurdles following a break was a good step forward when a close second over C&D ten days ago; nudged up 3lb for that and yet to win in handicap company, which suggests she possibly remains on a tough enough mark. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 10 |
9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Won a mares' novice at Kelso in December 2024 (2m5f, soft); back over hurdles after seven runs over fences, best form when third over C&D in November (good to soft); bit disappointing since. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
1-22; has dropped markedly in the weights over the past six months (form figures P5UP03); trainer seems to have his string in better form now, and she did rally from a tough position when modest third at Kelso (3m; good, 22-1) latest; no forlorn hope. |
9/1 |

3rd 8 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
C&D winner who finished third on her final two outings last season and is well treated on that form; however, she's struggled to get competitive on her seven starts this term and has plenty to prove. |
14/1 |
|
10th 14 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Record of 0-11 since winning on chase debut and looks far from solid on her form this season; well out of the handicap. |
