11st 7lb |
Bumper winner on debut in 2022 and best effort since when third in a maiden hurdle here last month; not sure to be suited by marked drop in trip and has a bit to find on form. |

11st 7lb |
Down Royal bumper winner on debut in August 2022; after a long absence, she was entitled to need her run over hurdles at Tipperary in May; however, she has failed to shine in a bumper at Punchestown, a Flat maiden at Galway, and a maiden hurdle at this venue; perhaps unwise to write off. |

Best effort to date on latest in a Tramore maiden hurdle (2m, yielding); opening mark looks fair on that evidence but stamina to prove upped in trip; still worth checking in the market for yard that won this in 2022. |

Pulled up on debut in maiden hurdle before tailed off in a Killarney bumper next time; hasn't shown anything in latest two starts to recommend her. |

10st 11lb |
Pulled up on debut at Ballinrobe in a maiden hurdle last year and too keen when tailed off in a bumper at Killarney in July; modest run back at Ballinrobe last time; would be a shock winner. |

Won a C&D mares' maiden hurdle last August; hit and miss since with Tramore last time one of her poor runs but could go well if rebounding. |

Stays further than this; not beaten far in fourth at Fairyhouse in November, absent since but not without a chance; seems to be ground-versatile, although her Wexford win was gained on good going. |

Won Wexford maiden over this trip in August (beating Ar Aghaidh) but struggled to get home over same trip in Tipperary handicap on latest; needs to find more and stiffer 3m may not suit. |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 0y |

Has failed to make the frame in bumpers/maiden hurdles; makes her handicap debut and is not one of the more obvious candidates. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 61y |
10st 13lb |
With an official rating of 95, she comes into the reckoning. however, she looks flattered by her mark and has failed to make the first four in 11 starts (four bumpers, seven maiden hurdles); beaten 14l when sixth of ten at Fairyhouse in January; absent since. |

Point winner, 0-15 over hurdles; has three handicaps seconds to her name; makes little appeal in a maiden at the age of 11. |

Point-to-point winner is 0-14 over hurdles, pick being second in C&D handicap last season; not so good over 3m of late, drop back in trip to suit but hard to fancy back in maiden company. |

Consistent form early last season was rewarded with a win Ballinrobe mares' maiden hurdle win (2m7f, good); good spell came to a halt when pulled up at Listowel in September on handicap debut; has run well after breaks before. |

Consistent spell of form rewarded with a maiden hurdle success at Ballinrobe a month ago (22.5f, good); talented rider takes off 7lb for handicap debut; easy ground may not be ideal. |
