9st 4lb |
Now 11lb higher than for C&D win in March, an emphatic success gained at the main expense of the Irish Lincoln winner Ribee; has maintained progress with a wide-margin win in a handicap hurdle at Bellewstown; strong contender. |

Dual-purpose sort added his fifth Flat win when comfortably winning a Curragh handicap earlier this month on soft to heavy; winner of a Naas maiden hurdle (2m, good to yielding) when trained by Paul Traynor and has been a runner-up in both starts over timber for this yard, including when best of the rest behind the decent Eachtotheirown at Thurles in January; big chance. |

16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
10st 13lb |
Made a good impression when third at Fairyhouse first time (2m, soft to heavy); failed to repeat that until taking the second spot at Bellewstown last month (2m1f, yielding); not the most fluent jumper but in the mix with improvement. |

Made a good impression when third at Fairyhouse first time (2m, soft to heavy); failed to reproduce that form at the same venue on her second start or at Punchestown subsequently in a first-time hood; lacked jumping fluency at Navan on handicap debut when a 10.5l sixth of 12; others preferred. |

Useful mare; went a bit high in the ratings after winning at Downpatrick last June; now back on a mark only one pound higher and holds a big chance in this company on the strength of her third placing in a 24-runner contest at the Punchestown festival. |

Added a second hurdling win at Downpatrick last June off 2lb lower (2m3f, yielding to soft), but recent runs had gotten progressively worse until return to form of sorts at Bellewstown last month when an 8.5l third (2m1f, yielding). |

Dual winning hurdler, with the latest win coming at Downpatrick last June off 3lb lower (2m3f, yielding to soft); good second at Navan in September (2m, soft to heavy) but performances have become progressively worse since and beaten 30l at Naas last time (2m3f, heavy). |

Point-to-point winner for Mick Goff; last month's Bellewstown (2m1f, yielding) fourth was her best race yet and provides hope that she may deliver on early promise now in a lower grade. |

Point-to-point winner for Mick Goff last January and purchased for 82,000GBP; beaten a long way in four starts for current yard, although there was promise in her Limerick maiden hurdle debut when a 27l third of 11 (2m1f, yielding to soft); questions to answer after tailed off on handicap debut at Fairyhouse in January but it's still early days. |

Won a Sligo handicap hurdle last August but was poor twice after; a better effort on return but is rated 111 over hurdles and has a bit to find with some of these on chase debut. |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |

Bolted up at Sligo on her second start for her current yard in August (2m5f, good) off 107; tailed off at Ballinrobe following that and same story at Punchestown when last seen in October; the break may have done her good but she's hard to trust. |

11st 12lb |
Latest of three Flat wins for Jessica Harrington was off 84 last summer; improved of late over hurdles; mild promise when sixth at Bellewstown and then 22-1, dropped in grade to beat geldings at Wexford; needs proper good ground and trainer admits she's unpredictable. |

One of two for trainer; three-time Flat winner for Jessica Harrington on good/good to firm; moderate hurdles form for new yard, but her sixth of ten at Bellewstown last time was not her worst effort; in this lower grade for first time. |

Decent record over hurdles, winning two and placing in two more out of eight runs; latest win came at Galway (2m1f, good) in July off 8lb lower when aided by a strong pace to help her settle; off since then before returning with a cracking run on the Flat at Leopardstown six days ago when running on well for second on good to yielding ground; key player. |

Flat strike rate of 1-29 is a worry; however, her hurdles form shows that she has plenty of ability; won a competitive mares' handicap hurdle at the Galway festival on her final 2025 outing; hooded for the first time. |

One of two for trainer; bumper/dual winning hurdler; returned from almost a year off when well beaten on Flat in February; more promise in 10l fifth over hurdles at Navan (2m, soft); didn't build on that at Bellewstown last time. |

10st 12lb |
Having finished second at Naas in April, won this off 4lb lower last year and was third at Roscommon next time; hasn't threatened since on softer terrain but decent ground is key to her and she might bounce back to form; usual rider has jumped ship to Shannon Bank, but sub isn't too shabby. |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |

Best form has come on good ground, including her sole win at Listowel in June off 89 (2m); ran well off 1lb higher at Roscommon next time when third (2m, good); hasn't run to the same level in four runs since (three on softer conditions); questionable as to whether this ground will be good enough but she's capable at her best. |
