9st 2lb |
Grade 3-winning hurdler turned into a useful Flat performer in 2024; finished third in a Fairyhouse Grade 3 over 1m6f before winning the Ebor over the same trip; however, hasn't been seen since and difficult to get behind her after a long absence; the market might reveal her readiness. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Useful hurdler, placed at the last two Cheltenham Festivals; similar standard straightaway switched to racing under Flat rules on last three outings, 1-4 for her easy 1m5f maiden win before she ran on nicely to be a close third in Group 3 at Fairyhouse (1m6f, good; unraced on firmer); this mark demands more but she did shape last time as if capable of better. |

Bumper winner; talented mare over hurdles, has run well at two Cheltenham festivals, second in last year's Grade 2 mares' novice, fourth in the County Hurdle last season; made a bright start on Flat when fifth to Thunder Roll in a 1m4f Listed race at Cork in April; readily landed the odds in a 1m5f maiden at Down Royal. |

Dual-purpose type; won on the Flat at Listowel in September; return to hurdles with a fine effort behind The Busy Fool and Park Of Kings at Naas (hampered); is 1lb wrong here but he can go well if repeating his last run and getting a clearer passage. |
