3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins from 19 starts, the most recent success coming on the AW at Lingfield in April off a mark 2lb lower than today's; however, he was disappointing back on turf at Salisbury (1m4f, good) last month and needs to bounce back; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has done all her winning at Class 5 level and seemed to get found out off this mark upped to a Class 4 at Lingfield (1m4f AW); she will at least handle conditions, even if they dry out a bit. |
6/1 |

6th 6 (8) |
12th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has won her last two starts over C&D 133 days apart; up another 3lb in her hat-trick bid and she has to be taken very seriously. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made all for clearcut success on handicap debut here (9.4f) in January and came second on both subsequent AW starts (9.4f/1m4f); absent since lesser effort on turf two months ago and her tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but this return to Tapeta is sure to suit and she remains unexposed over the trip. |
6/1 |
|
7th 2 (10) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Improved with the switch to handicaps and AW with a win at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in January and seconds there and at Lingfield (1m4f) this spring; player if that form is transferred to turf. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Improved for the switch to a handicap when seizing the initiative early for a wide-margin AW win at Wolverhampton (about 1m1f) in January; couldn't pull off a 6lb rise against a course specialist there last month but she still gave it plenty and this new trip is plausible on pedigree. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Kept on well to hang on to her lead when making handicap debut at Windsor (extended 1m3f) last May; has run some sound races since, including on Tapeta (1m6f) in October, and perhaps just needed the run at Kempton (1m3f) 12 days ago; shouldn't be far away. |
9/2 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Made a successful handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) in May last year and ran her best race since when second of six at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) in October; not quite sure how she will cope with the drop in trip after six months off. |
5/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Progressed well at up to 1m4f during the summer but backward steps the last twice and has questions to answer regards the trip and surface. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three turf wins for Richard Hannon last summer and latest was off 1lb higher at Ripon (1m4f, good to firm); mixed results for new yard since March but she's had some close calls and was a creditable second at Doncaster (1m2f; tongue-tie added) last week; on same mark here and has leading claims if she can back that up |
11/4 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has gone close on AW a couple of times for new yard but failed to beat a rival last time; 3-7 in turf handicaps and looks quite interesting back in this sphere, off 1lb below last winning mark; tongue-tie fitted. |
12/1 |
|
10th 4 (10) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Stable going well and she has run two sound races on Southwell Tapeta (1m/1m3f) this spring; wouldn't rule out but has run below her best in both starts here (1m4f and 8.5f). |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple winner at around 1m4f (turf and AW); 3lb lower than her latest success, in February; well below par on her last four starts, including over C&D latest; revival needed dropping in grade. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Seven-time winner, the latest on AW (1m4f) in February; quiet on her last three starts but she has slipped down the weights as a result. |
16/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 1m4f AW victory at Lingfield but her more recent form is not so encouraging, sixth of eight in 1m4f Chepstow handicap 12 days ago; more is required in a change of headgear. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Two Wolverhampton wins (about 1m and 1m1f) last midwinter; no sign of her flagging when a strong-finishing third over 1m4f there in October, in only her second attempt at the trip; however, that was her sole run in the last 12 months so there are some readiness queries; cheekpieces refitted. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (7) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
2-2 at Wolverhampton (0-4 elsewhere) with the wins coming in an 8.6f fillies' maiden and a 9.5f handicap; respectable efforts in 1m4f/1m2f handicaps when last seen in the spring; should prove fully effective at this trip and she's one to consider with a good apprentice taking off 5lb. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
18th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

awkward start, took keen hold, towards rear, midfield after 3f |
