20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
11st 2lb |
Dual-purpose; 1-29 on Flat; 0-6 over hurdles; her sole Flat win came over three years ago, but she had fair form in 2025, including when second in a 1m5f handicap at this venue; well clear of the remainder when chasing home an easy winner at Tramore on New Year's Day. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 55y |
9st 10lb |
Record of 1-27 with her win coming three years ago doesn't inspire hugely, but she has been running well in defeat recently; beaten a head at Down Royal in first-time cheekpieces off 62 in July (1m5f, good); creditable runs at Galway and Killarney following that (a neck behind Ehteyat at Killarney); interesting. |

No win since 2022 but went agonisingly close to ending the drought at Down Royal last month (1m5f, good) in first-time cheekpieces; merit in Galway fourth since so remains of interest. |

Hurdle winner is a maiden after 24 starts on the Flat; beaten a long way in a chase last time and isn't easy to fancy with blinkers added. |

Decent hurdler is rated 116 in that sphere, winning twice last season, including a Listed event at Doncaster; was second in a Flat maiden here in September before a respectable chasing debut behind a quality sort at Navan; handles soft ground and should go close. |

Sole win in either code came on the AW over 2m in January but career-best when strong-finishing close second in Gowran handicap over this trip on Wednesday, having allowed winner first run; Keane now takes over and obvious claims off same mark. |

Finally got off the mark over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m2f) last May; tried chasing again last month but well below par in handicaps (up to 2m2f) at Wexford and Limerick; needs this return to hurdling to spark a resurgence. |

0-6 and limitations have been exposed in three handicaps, for all that she's not been disgraced in the last two (7f/1m); has stamina to prove over this far and might not be good enough anyway. |

17th Sep 2022 Soft 1m 1f 100y |

Nice pedigree and looks capable of handicap success after pleasing run at Cork but actually dropped 2lb since; likes an ease but hard to see her making the necessary improvement. |
