11st 7lb |
Talented mare has finished out of the first three just twice in six starts over hurdles; won a Grade 3 at Punchestown in February (2m4f, soft); pulled up in Fairyhouse Grade 2 latest; best form on soft ground so rain would boost claims. |

11st 7lb |
Top-rated here at 138; won Grade 1 at Aintree in April 2025, her last start on ground with good in the description; below best in hot handicaps this year but better expected now back on a sounder surface; giving weight away to most of her rivals but the one to beat. |

11st 1lb |
Grade 1 Juvenile winner at Aintree (2m1f, gd-sft) last year; has come up dry since, beaten similar distances in first three handicaps; dropped 1lb for an 11l fifth behind Kalix Delabarriere on latest and Townend takes over now; drying ground a plus and could go well. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
10st 13lb |
Not much promise in a maiden hurdle and bumper last year; has improved, third in maidens at Cork and Downpatrick; in between was challenging when falling at the last at Limerick; 107-rated mare needs to raise her game to win here. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 2f 185y |
10st 13lb |
Not much promise in a maiden hurdle and bumper last year; improved in two hurdle runs this year especially at Limerick (2m4f) last time, challenging when falling at the last; should go close today if none the worse for that. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
10st 13lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner; soundly beaten in Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham when last sighted in October; ran well in a maiden hurdle over C&D last September; lacks a recent run and probably best watched unless market speaks. |
13/2 |

24th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Down Royal bumper winner on good to firm and last week added an ordinary maiden hurdle for mares at Thurles (good to yielding); faces by far and away her toughest test yet but brings momentum into it. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 50y |
11st 11lb |
2-11 over fences; rated 13lb higher over hurdles; ran well when second in Grade 3 novice here in October (War Correspondent third); has disappointed at Fairyhouse and when pulled up over C&D since returning from a break; needs to leave those efforts behind. |
16/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 75y |

Very useful hurdler, two wins and third in 2024 Cheltenham Mares' Novices Hurdle; took a while to find her form over fences but won at Killarney and Listowel last year; second in Grade 3 novice here in October; never counted at Fairyhouse after a break. |
