22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 110y |
10st 10lb |
Lightly raced 7yo; won a 2m Grade 3 at this venue in February 2024; creditable fourth in the Mares' Hurdle at Cheltenham following that; ran only twice last season; poor run when favourite for a beginners' chase at this venue on seasonal debut; not much better at big odds when sent back over hurdles at Punchestown. |

Won the Grade 3 Red Mills Hurdle on just her second career start and highly tried in Grade 1s afterwards, finishing a good fourth to Lossiemouth in the 2m4f mares' race at Cheltenham last season; jumping failed to stand the test on her chase debut and she's respected back in this scene, especially as she's so lightly raced. |

Her initial wins over fences included a Grade 2 for mares (2m, soft/heavy) but limitations exposed since, despite raising her game, and this is her first crack at a Grade 1 of any kind; very much up against it. |

Maiden hurdler, rated 109; now established as a good chaser; made all for an emphatic win at Gowran; no apparent fluke about her 33-1 win from Harmonya Maker in a mares' Grade 2 Cork event over an extended 2m; another fine effort when third to Spillane's Tower at Punchestown; not quite as good a week later at Thurles, run may have come too soon. |
