26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Dual novice winner for previous yard; building up some momentum for this one after beating all bar an improver at Bangor (2m7f, good); considered. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won two novice hurdles (2m3f/2m) for Alistair Ralph in 2023-24; struggled in first three runs for current yard but she showed signs of a revival when third of 12 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last Saturday; was no match for the first two in that race but her mark continues to fall and she looks worth another try at this trip; could be dangerous. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 |
16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won two novice hurdles (2m3f/2m) for Alistair Ralph in 2023-24; rather disappointing since, including on her three starts for this yard after wind surgery last season (pulled up over fences last time); bit to prove. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Won this two years ago after a 157-day absence when 3lb lower and has won two more since; she wasn't in great form when last seen but could easily stage a revival. |
10/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
May not have achieved much when beating three rivals at Stratford (2m6f, good; first-time blinkers) in September and has been well held in both starts since; 3lb drop not enough to tempt. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has the form to get in contention but she had a shocker when tailed off in a first-time visor at Fakenham; regularly worn cheekpieces but now goes without any headgear. |
12/1 |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Twice made the frame at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) for Brian Ellison last month; left that yard after a disappointing Flat run but was in contention before awkward jumps at last two flights proved costly on recent stable debut at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good); swaps usual cheekpices for first-time visor; can make her presence felt. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Ten-race maiden who threatened on occasions last year, going close over 3m at Perth and Galway; tailed off in May after 199 days off but could be a different proposition this time. |
5/1 |
|
8th 10 |
12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 172y |
10st 9lb |
From top yard and knocking on the door last autumn; beaten a neck at Perth in September (3m, good) and a head at Galway in October when last seen (3m, yielding); just 2lb higher now and big chance if fit after a 199 day break. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won a 2m2f handicap at Kilbeggan in April 2025 (good to yielding) and didn't run shockingly after a year out at Tramore two months ago; cheekpieces are turned to and this Irish challenger could go well. |
10/1 |

6th 10 |
20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Absent since winning at Kilbeggan a year ago; might prefer better ground and is entitled to need the run; however, she is only 4lb higher than for her win and is worth a market check with Oran McGill claiming a valuable 5lb. |

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. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Dual AW winner; 0-6 over hurdles; in first-time cheekpieces when runner-up over 2m4f at Ffos Las (good to soft; fine on good) and she wasn't stopping; interesting now sent further. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
20th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Dual AW winner; beaten 5.5l over C&D (good) a month ago on first run for 187 days and could be sharper for that outing, and benefit from the new cheekpieces; one to consider. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 6 |
21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A fair 1m4f Flat winner but she's yet to match that form in this sphere, fifth of six in C&D handicap in October; needs to step forward after her absence. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Having her 32nd career start when finally off the mark in a selling handicap over 2m1f here recently (good); only 4lb higher and new trainer James Moffatt has booked Brian Hughes; has to be of interest despite blatant stamina reservations. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |

30-race maiden Flat and jumps; bought for 3,400gns in February; well beaten on stable debut at Kelso last month (2m2f, good); should improve for that run; on a good mark at present. |

Runner-up over 2m7f at Fakenham last month, since when she's finished 12l behind at Stratford; only 1-33 overall and others preferred for win purposes. |
12/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Got off the mark at the 27th attempt under rules at Exeter (2m, good to firm) last October; ran her best since when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) 26 days ago; her versatility distance-wise holds her in good stead but her win-record is off-putting. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Scored off today's mark in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (2m, good to firm) in October and posted a good effort over 2m4f the following month but was pulled up three weeks ago, after a break, and her Flat pedigree raises doubts over the suitability of this trip. |
