3rd 1 (8) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner (good) last August and has won twice on the AW since, the latest in a small field at Newcastle (7f) in March; 76-day break since then not a problem having won twice after similar absences; likely to go well. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice last year, latest at Wolverhampton in September off a mark 4lb lower than today's; beaten 5l when fourth at Southwell (also 7f, Tapeta) 67 days ago and has claims on her first start since. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 1-22 but scores good marks for her consistency since 6f AW win in January; denied clear run before keeping on for fifth in recent C&D contest won by Jkr Cobbler; each-way claims at least. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Largely consistent mare who was third over 6f at Hamilton on her last two appearances; also suited by this longer trip and won't mind if the ground is slower than good; probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Largely consistent mare who was respectable third of seven when dropped back in trip for C&D (good to soft) amateur riders' race a fortnight ago; probably won't be far away. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Kept on well for second of 15 over an extended 1m4f at Chester (good) in May but below-par sixth over the same trip at Goodwood since; latest win came over 1m on AW in March, so the significant drop back in trip shouldn't be an issue but it's still hard to be upbeat about her prospects here from 4lb out of the handicap. |
100/1 |
|
6th 6 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a lot of racing but she arrives here in a fine run of form and kept on well for second in a Class 4 at Chester four weeks ago (good); effective on good to soft; chance. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 (5) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Led close home at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in March and has held her form well since (7f-9.4f); should be fine back on turf but current mark demands a career-best performance on this first attempt at 1m4f. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Doubled her tally when winning at Wolverhampton (Tapeta) in January but she was behind Party Bear when down the field at Lingfield (also 7f, Polytrack) 12 days ago; comes back down in grade. |
8/1 |
|
10th 11 (1) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Career-best effort when winning a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton last month; up 3lb but could be capable of better at this trip; Ashley Lewis's 5lb claim a bonus. |
9/1 |
|
7th 5 (6) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Came good with narrow 6f win at Haydock in April and ran at least as well when very close second over that trip here (good) the following month; off since lesser effort ten weeks ago but stays 7f and enters calculations. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Returned to winning form over C&D in January and had genuine excuses for two of her three defeats in the meantime; beaten just a short head and a neck into third of 11 in the Fillies and Mares Trial here in between those efforts with two of these behind; leading player. |
8/1 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a handicap at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in January and her next run can be easily excused (saddle slipped forward); ran well when third of 11 in a competitive race at Lingfield last time and holds good claims now dropped back in grade. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 10 (5) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner last month; latest Newcastle run easy to excuse as the saddle slipped early on; unexposed in cheekpieces but she will need to step up a notch to take this. |
