Ended a terrible run of form when a surprise winner on the AW in November (1m4f, 50-1); decent efforts in two runs back there afterwards; his previous efforts over hurdles were dire but he has found some form on the Flat since then. |

Useful Flat form at about 1m2f; beaten in the region of 10l in his two runs over hurdles despite taking a firm grip (tongue tied last time on soft; 2.25l behind Talakan); needs to settle better but this sharp track could benefit him. |

Showed fairly useful level of form in four Flat runs and made promising start over hurdles when 9l third of ten at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month, keeping on well having still had plenty to do when not fluent two out; open to lots of improvement; big player in first-time tongue-strap. |

In the hunt for a three-timer following back-to-back wins of a 21-runner handicap at the Curragh in April (6f, soft) and a 6f contest at Naas the following month (good), needed to wait for room before winning by a short head; she's up an aggregate of 18lb but is in wonderful form. |

Touched off at this venue on her only start at two; beaten favourite on her reappearance last spring; made amends on the second of two starts in the autumn, stuck to her task (despite hanging to the right) to land a heavy-ground maiden over a bit shorter than this at Gowran; fair chance she can pay her way in handicaps this season. |

9st 1lb |
Showed ability in Irish maidens for Noel Meade but yet to get going in two starts for this yard, latterly in a hood (now removed) at Thirsk last month; this is just her third handicap but it's a tough one in which to stage a revival. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |

Ran in five maidens in Ireland for Noel Meade, finishing second on the final occasion (1m4f, heavy); has also shown promise on good ground; she could improve for last month's stable/seasonal debut at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) but was soundly beaten and others have more pressing claims; a hood goes on. |
