Form & Verdict
Has finished out of the first two just once on her four starts at this track; sole win from ten starts came here last September from a 1lb lower mark (5f, yielding); returned to form after two underwhelming runs when beaten just a neck by Arctic Steps here three weeks ago (5f, good); claimer aboard now and has a big chance.

Won her third handicap off 77 at Chepstow last August (5f, good to soft); no real impact in Listed races since and well beaten back in a handicap here last time (6f, good); others more appealing.

Hold-up performer who advanced her form with her sixth to Beautiful Diamond in an Ayr Listed event last September (blinkered first time); over 4l to find with that rival though and she looks up against it; cheekpieces the headgear of choice today.

Form & Verdict
0-6 but was close on her comeback run in a Curragh maiden in March (6f, soft); possibly didn't stay 7f last time at this track and drops back to 5f now for the first time; makes her handicap debut and is likely to be thereabouts.

Form & Verdict
Shock success came at this track last time when a 66-1 winner of handicap from a mark of 61 (5f, good); travelled sweetly that day so the result wasn't necessarily a fluke; tame efforts prior to that victory but she returns to the C&D of her win just 4lb higher.

Just one win from 22 starts, but ran well here last month over 10.5f on just her third AW start when chasing home a rank outsider; below that level when outpaced over 1m last week; step up in trip can help.

Maiden is 0-14 on turf; best efforts have come over 5f; beaten 0.5l off 13lb higher at Down Royal in May 2025 and comeback at Sligo (6f, yld-sft) was not devoid of promise (denied clear run); eased 2lb; not discounted if backing that up.

Didn't show a lot of promise in maiden starts but posted a positive 1.5l second behind a progressive rival at Tipperary in April on handicap bow (5f, yielding); dropped 1lb but a shade disappointing last time at the Curragh when fading to finish eighth of 13 (6f, good); returns to 5f and on a feasible mark.
