Dual Flat winner who won a C&D handicap off 92 here in May; similar performance when runner-up on last month's return visit; looks vulnerable in a race of this nature. |

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). |

Likeable type was dual winning hurdler in 2024 and two chase wins last year; good third over hurdles at Killarney (2m7f) when tried in cheekpieces and has good record at this time of year. |

Another that goes well here with pair of C&D wins this summer; beat Gangster Granny two runs back and now meets her on 7lb better terms (including claims); beaten 3l on latest visit. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |

In excellent form and has won two of her last three, both over C&D; is now 17lb higher than when winning easily here in May and this is stronger than the race she won last time but clearly loves this place and in the mix again. |

Maiden winner over this trip at Tramore and closely matched with Samba Train on run before at Killarney; remote second over 2m3f at Kilbeggan, but third left that form behind when winning readily at Galway; handicap debut. |

2nd 3 |
15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 200y |
11st 3lb |
Runner up in first two starts over hurdles; off the mark in a mares' maiden hurdle at Tramore on latest (21.5f, good); debatable whether this drop in trip will suit but she's fit and in form and should be in the mix again. |

Last couple of runs not her best but she's been runner-up four times in handicaps, including over C&D in March; would probably prefer easier terrain. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap over 17.5f (yielding) here in October; subsequently out of depth in grade 3 and tailed off on return from a break in a handicap at Perth in May; unproven over this far and needs to leave that last run behind. |
33/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |

Always doing enough when making winning handicap debut at Downpatrick (2m1f; 9-4 favourite) last October; well beaten in a Grade 3 mares' novice next time, and absent since; no issue with this track, so mildly interesting to see how she fares off a BHA mark of 109. |
