13th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 111y |
9st 5lb |
Back from a break with a C&D (soft) second 1.5l behind Earls early last month and same mark now; won her maiden over C&D on heavy and not a bad run at the Curragh latest; solid chance if the visor ekes out a little bit more. |

Won Roscommon maiden on heavy last season and very lightly raced since, returning from five months' absence with fine second at same venue early this month, up with pace throughout when second on soft; will appreciate any softening of the ground. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed promise in four handicap starts around 1m on turf in Ireland for Johnny Murtagh last year; new connections went to 58,000euros to acquire him in November and are quick to step him up in trip (also AW debut); market confidence could prove significant. |

Strike-rate of 3-51; improved upon poor recent efforts when encountering good ground at Killarney (1m), finishing a close third after not getting a clear run; up 2lb but remains on a nice mark if backing up his last run. |

Won off 6lb higher in first-time cheekpieces at the Curragh last March (1m, soft); no joy since and beaten around 9l in both starts at that venue this season; blinkers back on instead of cheekpieces; not discounted. |

Twice second for this yard after being acquired from a claimer last summer; went close over this trip at the Curragh in October; never involved on her comeback there over 7f; needs to bounce back after a below-par run at Sligo; hooded now. |

The breakthrough win had been coming and did it decisively at Punchestown (1m1f, good to yielding) despite a wide draw; fine on soft ground as well but she's gone up 8lb and they claimed 7lb last time, so has more on her plate off this mark. |
