30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
10st 10lb |
Flat maiden has taken well to hurdles, winning a Fairyhouse maiden on debut and running some fine races in defeat since; has to find more to win but should be in the mix. |
7/1 |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |

No great shakes in failing to win on the Flat but has won a maiden over hurdles and performed well in the face of some stiff tasks; however, this is another, and she's held by Majolique on Naas form. |

22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |
10st 7lb |
Flat maiden (rated 70) got off the mark over timber at Fairyhouse in November (soft-to-heavy) and highly tried since, notably getting up for second behind clear winner Narciso Has in Grade 2 at Leopardstown; never really recovered from blunder three out in valuable mares' handicap at same venue early this month; place claims on ground she handles. |

Bumper winner last autumn got off the mark over hurdles in a Fairyhouse maiden last time on fourth start in this sphere; the cheekpieces worn then are retained but she has to do more in this grade. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Debut bumper winner at Galway last October; placed in all three maiden hurdles, including twice at this track (2m-2m2f); down in trip again after finishing second to a Gordon Elliott-trained odds-on chance over 2m5f at Leopardstown; cheekpieces and tongue-tie fitted now; capable of getting in the mix. |
7/2 |

3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 170y |
11st 7lb |
Debut bumper winner at Galway has run well in two Fairyhouse maiden hurdles since (2m-2m2f); this step up in trip could suit and is likely to be closely involved. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |
11st 7lb |
Can race freely but she was smart in bumpers and wasn't beaten far in a Listed hurdle at Punchestown last time (2m, yielding); 1-1 in points and brings significant potential to chase career. |
6/4 |

3rd 5 |
30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 4lb |
Smart bumper winner but had a tendency to race keenly; got off the mark over hurdles on debut at Naas but was pulled-up in the Mares' novice at Cheltenham; a better effort in a Fairyhouse Mares' Grade 1 since over 2m4f and a repeat back to this trip would see her go well. |
7/4 |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Won bumper here last season and came good over hurdles in 2m Naas maiden in January (yielding); ran no sort of race however (pulled up) in Grade 2 Ryanair Mares' Novice at Cheltenham and looks to have a bit to prove now. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 7lb |
Made the breakthrough when winning a Wexford maiden hurdle last month before following up in a Navan handicap four days later; however, carries a double penalty and is the lowest-rated in this field so has a tough task on. |

21st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Deserved her breakthrough win in a maiden at Wexford on Tuesday; handicap form has been consistent but a 7lb penalty may anchor her since; finished behind Maxios Prime at Leopardstown earlier in the month. |
7/1 |

17th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y |
10st 13lb |
Experienced mare with 13 hurdle runs under her girth and has run creditably in plenty of them, including at this track; rated only 96 but gets weight from several of these so that brings her into contention. |
