Returned from a 326-day absence at Ballinrobe last July to make the breakthrough at the seventh time of asking over hurdles (2m6f, good) with easy win; took a mammoth 16lb rise for that and duly struggled at Roscommon in final start for Noel Kelly in August (3m, good to yielding); down 3lb for stable debut. |

0-11; pulled up on stable debut at Wexford in May but ran one of her best races at Clonmel last month (2m1f, good) when a 4l fifth; hampered on two separate occasions when fourth over further at Limerick last time (2m7f, good); this trip is on the short side for her, but she appears to have found some form. |

0-10 and was pulled up at Wexford on stable debut in May (2m1f, good to yielding); ran one of her best races at Clonmel over an inadequate extended 2m trip (good) when a 4l fifth, keeping on; this return to further should suit and she has her chance if she can find some consistency. |

Sole success came in a maiden hurdle in 2023; has run well in handicaps off higher marks than this; stayed on late for fifth over 2m6f (good) at Ballinrobe last time out in first-time cheekpieces (retained); dropped 2lb and could go well stepped back up to 3m. |

Maiden hurdle winner at Thurles also ran well in 2m7f handicaps at Punchestown off 100 mark early last year (soft); lightly raced and well below best this past winter but entitled to come on from recent Cork comeback run and is down to a dangerous-looking mark. |

Hurdle winner at Ballinrobe in 2025 got off the mark over fences over C&D last month in ready fashion (good to yielding); raised 8lb but was best of the rest when chasing home an easy winner at Roscommon last time (2m6f, soft); up 1lb more but should be thereabouts. |

AW winner is a maiden over timber; hasn't built on decent maiden hurdle second at this venue back in handicap company at 2m6f and 3m the last twice; this drop in trip should suit but lots more needed. |

All maiden hurdle runs came here and she showed precious little in those; tailed off in a Perth novice hurdle in July and well behind on handicap debut at Ballinrobe later that month (2m6f, good); down 2lb but she would be a surprising winner. |
