30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |
11st 7lb |
Struggled in three runs over fences before another heavy defeat back over hurdles; she was smart in 2024 but now has much to prove. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y |

Reverts to hurdling after an unsuccessful spell over fences; likes good ground but it remains to be seen if she can recapture useful 2024 form. |

Bumper winner is rated 124 over hurdles but has been nowhere near that level in two chase runs last season and has to do way more now. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Steadily progressive; won Listed event at Kempton (2m5f, good) in November; has advanced her form in defeat since, finishing third to Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer in Grade 3 at Leopardstown (2m4f, good/yielding) over Christmas before getting outstayed by the latter in a 3m Grade 2 at Doncaster (soft) in January; likeable but surely far more a place than win contender. |
14/1 |

2nd 2 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Steadily progressive; won Listed event at Kempton (2m5f, good) in November and seemed to perform even better when third to the classy Wodhooh in Grade 3 at Leopardstown (2m4f, good/yielding; 18-1) over Christmas; more to find again and has stamina to prove as well, but she may not have reached her limit. |
5/1 |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Dual-purpose; 1-7 over hurdles and rated 127, the win coming in a Thurles maiden last November; decent run in similar race to this when a 5l runner up at Listowel (2m4f, yld-sft) in September; solid effort on the Flat at Thurles latest (16.5f, good); player. |

Mare has two hurdle wins to her name and got off the mark over fences when a comfortable winner at Tramore last time against her own sex; this is much more competitive. |
8/1 |
|

31st May 2025 Good 1m 7f 130y |
11st 7lb |
Career-best performance in a Navan handicap hurdle on penultimate start when comfortably beating a subsequent winner (2m, soft); failed to build on that last time at Fairyhouse; she is capable of playing a role if putting her best foot forward on first try over fences. |

Point/bumper winner and added a maiden hurdle to her tally when game in victory at Cork (2m1f, good); brings momentum into handicaps. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 20y |

Bumper winner; rated 108 after six starts over hurdles; finished a 4l second of 15 in a Ballinrobe maiden (17.5f, good) on latest after a 138 day break; should strip fitter now and she's a big player. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Only win came on the Flat in 2023; back to something like her best with a third at Tipperary on penultimate start but not as good at Killarney since and this is tough race to try and break the maiden tag. |
25/1 |
|
7th 12 |
17th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 85y |
11st 2lb |
Running well in defeat on the Flat prior to her return to hurdles when third, not beaten far by Queenofthelodge; might have finished closer without a late error that day but best form has come on quicker ground than what is likely here. |
12/1 |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 6lb |
Pulled up on last two hurdle starts in the spring; showed some promise in two runs on the Flat, especially last time at the Curragh when finishing close fourth of 16 (1m4f, good); needs to convert that promise now back hurdling. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
10st 13lb |
3-14 over hurdles and rated 128; won a Clonmel beginners' chase on her penultimate start (15.5f, yld-sft); modest third in mares' listed hurdle at Killarney latest (2m1f, gd-yld); solid place chance on the figures but more needed to win. |
7/2 |

3rd 9 |
9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Flat winner has landed three hurdle races, the latest of which came at Gowran in October in a conditions event (2m1f, soft); proved her health when winning her chasing debut at Clonmel last month; a small bit to find on ratings but by no means dismissed. |

14th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 7f 131y |
11st 5lb |
Chase debutante is rated 129 over hurdles; can race keenly at times but likes cut in the ground and her yard had a Grade 1 winner at Fairyhouse last week; lacks a recent run but is one of the more likely ones here. |

Winner of a Clonmel maiden hurdle in December (16.5f, yielding); has been chasing recently with mixed success, well beaten in a Roscommon beginners' earlier this month; may bounce back on handicap hurdle debut. |

5th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 142y |

104-rated hurdler; far from disgraced in second start in this sphere at Clonmel (16.5f, gd-yld) in March when beaten just 5.25l into fourth but that form has taken a few knocks; might need this after 131 days off. |

21st Dec 2024 Good 2m 0f 15y |
11st 4lb |
Bumper winner at the start of the season and returned from a break to win a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse before taking a step up in class in her stride when successful in a mares' Grade 3 at Down Royal last month; didn't seem to give her running at Newbury since and this might be tough, giving weight away. |

30th Nov 2024 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Landed a bumper in May and added hurdle wins around 2m at Fairyhouse (maiden) and Down Royal (Grade 3 mares' novice) this autumn; those successes came on good (twice) and good to yielding; has the form to be bang there but others perhaps have greater scope for improvement. |

Bumper win here came on heavy, now 0-14 hurdling, pick of recent form when second on similar ground in Gowran mares maiden in March, didn't get beyond the first at Tramore last time (Nirisque second); ground could be plenty quick for her. |

Sole win in 15 starts came at this track in a bumper on debut in March 2022 on heavy; in the frame in maiden company a couple of times since; good second at Gowran Park lto; up in trip; this a stronger contest however so needs more. |

11st 1lb |
Bumper and hurdles winner for Willie Mullins in 2023-24; failed to add tom her tally for Paul Kiely last year and off since an okay run at Navan in February; worth a market check on first run for Harry Kelly. |
9/1 |

3rd 3 |
28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 90y |
11st 6lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; ran well in a Clonmel novice chase in December but poor in three starts following that, including when beaten 35l in a Thurles handicap last time (2m2f, soft); needs to come back to her best. |
6/1 |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 2f 0y |

Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins; also second for the champion trainer in a beginners' chase last May; best run in six chase starts for this yard when third in a Clonmel novice handicap; out of her depth in a Grade 2 mares' event here last month; of some interest in this grade. |
