4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
10st 0lb |
Improved dramatically from a low base to record four wins in 2025 including 2m Tramore handicap chase in October; also good second in 2m Navan handicap chase, possibly found 3m4f stamina test too much at Punchestown latest; 4lb wrong here but could go well if she stays. |

10st 5lb |
Improved dramatically from a low base to record four wins in 2025 including 2m Tramore handicap chase in October; following month, handled heavy ground well in 2m4f Gowran handicap hurdle, clear along with the progressive Cousin Kate; second in a 2m chase at Navan in November; down the field over hurdles at the DRF; a big question mark about her stamina. |

In tremendous form in 2025, four wins including 2m Tramore handicap chase in October and, the following month, when handling heavy ground well in 2m4f Gowran handicap hurdle, clear along with the progressive Cousin Kate; second in a chase latest; leading contender. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 100y |
10st 5lb |
Won a novice handicap chase at Sligo (17.5f, gd-yld) early this month from 5lb out of the handicap; narrowly denied in follow up bid at Tramore (15.5f, yielding) off 3lb higher; up another 2lb and this is a deeper race but she's in form and this trip suits; go well again. |

29th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |
10st 0lb |
Best two runs of her career have come here; beaten a head in 16.5f (good) handicap hurdle last August; 3.25l third in C&D handicap chase when last seen in October and 1lb lower now; could go well if ready after 232 day absence. |

9th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
10st 8lb |
Best of her 11 hurdle runs have come here, beaten just a head in August (2m, good); lesser run at Listowel following that and tailed off at Clonmel last time when upped in trip; sometimes reluctant to line up but this track is a big positive for her chase debut. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y |

Went closest to scoring when just denied over 2m at Tramore in August; might have found the ground too soft at Listowel since; this trip is a question. |

10st 6lb |
Veteran; five-time chase winner including three over C&D; last won here last August off 99 and 3lb lower now; recent efforts have been underwhelming, however, and blinkers are reached for. |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 4lb |
Old boy has won 12 races in all under both codes, mostly from the front; C&D winner in 2024 and was placed over 1m4f last year, but he's pushing on now and tailed off over fences last time. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
12st 0lb |
Veteran pulled up on first start for this yard at Clonmel in December but has a fine record here (four wins, three over fences) and is just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D last August; ground versatile and can't discount. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |
11st 2lb |
Dual-purpose; record of 1-31 over hurdles; couple of promising placed efforts after joining this yard last year but modest form so far in 2026 on the Flat and over hurdles; beaten 23l off 2lb higher at Clonmel latest; others preferred. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 159y |
10st 8lb |
No win since 2021; has occasionally run well in defeat; improved from a run on the Flat at Navan in March when going well for this jockey (on her first ride over jumps) at Wexford last month; beaten 8l in fourth, so needs to raise his game another notch. |

Veteran showed that he retains some ability when fourth in a 2m3f handicap here last month; however, that was his first time to make the frame since a Naas second in December 2024. |

Stayed on strongly to win a point at Boulta in December; half-sister to a bumper winner and dam was a bumper winner; ought to go well and her point experience could be key. |
