12th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Usually claimer ridden but now has Harry Cobden; the last of her ten wins was in August 2022; still shows plenty on occasions, including when seventh in the Pertemps Final last March and a close second back at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) three starts back; pulled up with cheekpieces enlisted on latest start; that headgear is now discarded but she's not the percentage call. |

22nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Usually claimer ridden; the last of her ten wins was in August 2022; still shows plenty on occasions, including when seventh in the Pertemps Final last March and a close second back at Cheltenham (2m4f) on penultimate outing; she performed far worse in the Musselburgh qualifier three weeks ago than she did last year, however, which sees cheekpieces enlisted. |

The last of her ten wins was in August 2022 but she still shows plenty on occasions, including when a strong-finishing fourth in this race last year and a close second at Cheltenham (2m4f) on latest outing; usually claimer ridden; place contender. |

One 2m win from 21 races on the Flat, showing fair form; has shown ability in all four starts (maidens) over hurdles, the latest when runner-up to an impressive odds-on winner at Punchestown in October; could have more to give in this sphere and it is needed. |

Four-time winner, latterly in 2023; continues to threaten now and again, as at Galway in August, but questionable whether he wants the ground this testing. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 15y |

Four-time winner for Andrew Slattery with last win coming in 2023; went close at Galway in August (1m4f, yielding) when Thatwilldoso won; posted another decent effort at Roscommon last time when third, behind Clear Quartz and Granite Bay; can go well again. |

Doubled his score over hurdles when winning well at Roscommon last time, beating Stede Bonnet; however, his record is still only 2-29 and a 7lb rise makes this a tougher task up in grade. |

Mixed results since switched to fences but his most recent effort was a sound one, finishing clear second behind Ardmayle over C&D on good ground; major contender off the same mark, granted a similar display. |

11st 13lb |
Very capable on the Flat and he won his last start in this sphere when landing a Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m3f, good) in April 2024; patchy form in nine starts on the Flat since and he refused to race on both outings when last seen in October; stable debut. |

19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Tardy starts have been a common theme this season but he took even more drastic action at the Curragh last time when refusing to race; generally poor efforts this year but he finished a close third behind subsequent Ascot Stakes winner Ascending at Cork in May (1m4f, good); risky proposition. |
25/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |

Tardy starts have been a recurring theme for this C&D winner (heavy); very slowly away again on latest at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); can't afford to miss the break badly at this trip; capable but risky; cheekpieces left off. |

6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 193y |

Grand dual-purpose performer has done a lot more Flat racing than hurdling in recent years; had Oh So Charming and Warm In Gorey behind when winning one of these at Wexford in May; 10l third to ready winner Raydamann over C&D the following month, and 4lb pull may not be enough to turn things around. |
