11st 1lb |
Touched off in a 3m Listed handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (heavy) in February off 121; made amends in a mares' handicap chase at Navan (20.5f, sft-hvy) later that month, winning readily by 9l; hiked up 10lb to 122 and steps back up in trip; could be more to come. |

11st 11lb |
Middling runs in two beginners chases; moderate effort back over hurdles in December but ran a career best when beaten a head in a Listed handicap hurdle at the Dublin Racing Festival last time (3m, heavy); wore first-time cheekpieces that day, which are now left off; runs off a 10lb lower mark for handicap chase debut; big contender. |

11st 5lb |
One of three for trainer; three-time winning hurdler got off the mark over fences in some style when 10l winner of Listed mares' handicap at Fairyhouse (2m5f, yielding to soft); 8lb higher now, but big player if that win wasn't an aberration. |

3-7 over hurdles but not the same level a chaser after eight attempts, okay run in 2m5f Cheltenham mares handicap in December, most recently chased home a ready 9l winner in similar Navan contest in February; 3lb wrong here so improvement needed. |

10st 8lb |
In rude health this summer; going up 20lb for handicap wins at at Tramore and Killarney and a novice win last time over 2m3f at Wexford; needs to find more again but there could well be more to come from her. |

11st 5lb |
Has hit form since switched to this yard, winning handicap chases at Tramore and Killarney with a decent effort over 2m here in between; seems to stay this trip but has a bit to find with Le Coq Hardi on ratings. |

10st 11lb |
Dual hurdle winner; in first-time cheekpieces when winning comfortably from the front at Wexford (2m3f, yielding) and coped with sort of mark over hurdles; respected. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
11st 2lb |
Dual hurdle winner; 0-5 chasing but mild encouragement last month over C&D when modest enough third to Connemara Shore (soft); much more needed and cheekpieces tried. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 5lb |
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. |

11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 100y |
11st 4lb |
Outclassed in a Grade 2 at Punchestown ten days ago and two seconds over fences suggest she could be a factor back in a handicap. |

Sligo maiden hurdle winner is 0-6 over fences and rated 103; out of her depth in this company. |
