9th 3 (10) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won a maiden at Lingfield (1m, AW) by 5l in March and made it 2-2 on the AW when following up on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW); however, she was held back on grass at Ascot (1m, good) last month and has a little bit to prove on turf, albeit this is a drop in grade; stable won this last year. |
20/1 |

5th 10 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Complete turnaround on two modest turf runs when upped to about 1m on AW, well clear at Lingfield then winning with something to spare on handicap debut at Wolverhampton recently; up 6lb but she can rise further. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
8st 3lb |
Modest form in two turf runs last summer, but a complete contrast when bolting up by 5l in a Lingfield maiden (1m, Polytrack) four weeks ago (runner-up has won since); this is likely to be harder on handicap debut, but she is clearly progressive. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Still a maiden (0-12) but has a stronger record on AW than on turf and is 12lb lower than last appearance in this sphere; possibilities, assuming the plausible resurgence materialises. |
11/1 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ran okay on her first two starts this season and has dropped down the weights but she's struggled on her last three runs; major turnaround needed in a first-time hood (replacing the cheekpieces adopted last time). |
14/1 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Exposed ten-race maiden; not matched her 2yo form this year but she's dropping down the weights and cheekpieces are now given a go. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Failed to make the frame in five runs for James Ferguson; offered little for her new handler when ninth of 11 in 1m Southwell handicap last month; lots more is required. |
50/1 |
|
9th 11 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Beaten 7l or more in five runs for James Ferguson including two handicaps (1m2f/1m); still early days but she needs a transformation back on AW for new yard; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |
20/1 |
|
6th 2 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Fifth in two 1m AW novice/maiden events in February/March but failed to build on those efforts when beating only one rival home on her handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) two months ago; drops back to 1m with cheekpieces added. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-4 for Andrew Balding and she was well held when eighth of 14 on her stable/handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) two weeks ago; may come on for that first start since March but others have stronger claims. |
25/1 |
|
8th 13 (4) |
10th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Owned by former trainer Andrew Balding; ran to an ordinary level for him and went in a hood when last seen in March; has much to prove after a break on handicap debut. |
33/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Ran to a modest level in her three runs (7f-1m, turf and Polytrack) last autumn; hooded for her reappearance; improvement required to win but it's not out of the question. |
