Fit from the Flat, chasing before that; completed a hat-trick when winning this last year; not in the same form now, but quite possible that she can make her presence felt; 5lb higher than 12 months ago. |

Has recorded her only two wins over hurdles at this venue, both over longer distances than this; stuck to her task over 2m4f here last October; failed to exploit a much lower chase mark here the following month and absent since. |

23rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
11st 3lb |
Sole win over timber came at this venue and went close over C&D in June; encouraging run at Listowel last month when only beaten half a length but disappointing at Punchestown last week; not ruled out given her propensity to go well at this venue. |
7/1 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
10st 13lb |
Not a super attractive profile with a record of 1-24 over hurdles but she has been running some nice races recently; returned to the scene of her sole win when beaten a neck at Clonmel in June (2m4f, good to yielding); went close again at Listowel last time when 0.5l behind the winner; just needs that bit more and perhaps the added tongue tie can help. |

Consistent enough mare and has popped up in a couple of handicap chases at Wexford over the summer; has carried higher marks than this to good effect over hurdles and can get into the shake-up here. |

Three seconds from eight starts over fences, and just run out of it close home in Killarney handicap seven weeks ago; mark went up 4lb to 106 after that; apparent second-string for Gavin Cromwell, but has her chance. |

12st 0lb |
Mixed form since winning a Sligo maiden hurdle (extended 2m1f, good) in August 2025 but, having posted one of her better efforts at Cork, was well beaten at Roscommon (3m) last month on her final start for Eric McNamara; subsequently sold for £10,000 and could be involved if recapturing her best form. |
