High-class mare has won eleven of her 20 starts over fences, including this race last year; as good as ever this season and won the Mares' Chase at Cheltenham on latest (Only By Night runner-up, Spindleberry fourth); top-rated here and best treated by race conditions; the one to beat. |

11st 5lb |
Runner-up in this race in 2024 (soft) and went one better last year (good to soft); made mistakes when beaten on return to action at Navan in November and has since posted easy wins at Fairyhouse (Grade 3) and Naas (Listed) when heavily odds-on each time; she's the one to beat. |

High-class mare is 9-18 chasing, including this race last year and Grade 2 Liberthine Mares' Chase at Cheltenham; beaten favourite on seasonal return in Fortria at Navan in November but back on track in landing long odds with ease in 3-runner Grade 3 at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day, her first attempt at 2m6f; versatile mare, back in trip and remains very much the one to beat. |

10st 10lb |
2-23 over fences, those wins gained mid-winter in 2022/23 season; fourth in two handicap runs in recent months; was due to run in the 6.30 here on Friday; not suited by the race conditions. |

10st 12lb |
Back-to-back chase wins two years ago; nothing since then, finished in front of Lightkeeper when fourth at Wexford when last seen (2m3f, good); that was her best run for a while; refused to line up at Punchestown in April, so comes with risks attached. |
20/1 |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |
10st 7lb |
2-22 over fences; poor form recently and a 10l fourth of eight at Punchestown last month wasn't hugely encouraging; refused to line up at Punchestown in April; a risky profile and others are in better form. |
12/1 |
