11st 13lb |
Out of form in December when last seen over hurdles but looked back in good nick when winning on AW in February and is 5lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) in March 2025; interesting. |

Belied 80-1 odds when placed off today's mark in this race last year but was well beaten on next hurdling start and has been absent since some disappointing Flat runs in the autumn; too risky. |

Four-time winner in Ireland (1m1f/1m2f) but the latest of those wins came over two years ago; didn't run badly at Beverley on her Flat debut for this yard but she was beaten a long way at Catterick three weeks ago; down in class but others look stronger. |

Dual-purpose; just 1lb higher than when winning a Curragh handicap last season (1m4f, good); shaped with promise when a 5l fifth of 14 at Roscommon latest and has gone well here before; interesting but wouldn't want to see much rain. |

Sole win came at Cork in 2023; decent form last autumn, including a close third over 1m4f at Galway and second in a 19-runner contest at the Curragh, with Whats New, Earthsong and Bruant behind; may improve from a Cork run, but has to reverse form with Celtic Drud and Earthsong. |

Sole win came at Cork two years ago but went close last summer over 1m7f at Leopardstown and more recently close third over 1m4f at Galway last month; didn't quite get home in heavy ground at Listowel but solid run nonetheless; blinkers now replace cheekpieces. |

Two of her three wins over hurdles have come at Tramore; however, she was a long way below her best in a similar race to this at that course last month; that run was prefaced by weak form at Dundalk during the winter. |
