22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
She'll find it hard to beat a peak-form Panic Attack and she was pulled up in the Irish National 16 days ago; however, she was running well in January, in a Grade 2 mares' chase at Fairyhouse (2m6f, yielding) and the Thyestes Handicap at Gowran Park (3m1f, heavy; albeit no match for the first two); no surprise if she bounces back with a good performance today. |

22nd Jan 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Had a good season as a novice last term, four wins included 2m4f Grade 3 Tipperary novice and finished third to Dinoblue at Cheltenham; reappeared with a fine third in the Galway Plate in July; pulled up in Kerry National when reported with atrial fibrillation and signs of being in season; jumped untidily when predictably no match for Dinoblue at Fairyhouse. |

24th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 7f 180y |
11st 2lb |
Four-time winner over fences, including a 2m4f Grade 3 novice success at Tipperary last October; distant third behind Dinoblue at Cheltenham; remote seventh in the Irish Grand National; put in a fine effort when third at 33-1 in the Galway Plate; Jordan Gainford retains the ride; capable of another big run |

Won two bumpers, one of them at this venue; useful 129-rated hurdler; won on chase debut at Galway over an extended 2m6f trip; made a bad mistake three out when remote fourth at Killarney; similar error two out ended her chance of beating the favourite in a mares' event at Listowel. |

23rd Mar 2025 Good 3m 0f 150y |
11st 9lb |
Strike-rate of 1-10 over both hurdles and fences; gave it a good go from the front in a 2m6f handicap chase at Punchestown last time (heavy) and the recent rain has done her prospects no harm; considered. |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Reserve; returned to form when second in mares' handicap over 2m6f at Punchestown last month and she stays 3m; however, this 8yo is just 1-10 over fences and there's a suspicion this task will prove too competitive. |
33/1 |

3rd Feb 2025 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 9y |
10st 13lb |
Is 1-9 over fences; ran alright on her seasonal return at Listowel but two of her last three runs have been poor and she didn't go with much enthusiasm when pulled up on latest at Fairyhouse; others appeal more. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
10st 11lb |
The most experienced mare in the field and rated 123 over fences; has often been highly tried to no avail, including when tailed off in Punchestown mares' Grade 2 latest; sights are lowered now and seems to handle most ground; chance. |
7/2 |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |
10st 12lb |
1-12 over fences and rated 125; hasn't won since scoring in a mares' chase at Wexford in July 2024; difficult to see her losing run ending in this company. |

2nd 4 |
5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 100y |
10st 7lb |
Was a decent second in a Thurles handicap in February but was well beaten at Leopardstown since and has loads to find against the top two in this race; due to run in the 2.40 at Fairyhouse Saturday. |

Won a beginners' chase at Killarney last August but pretty poor since then, other than when third off 3lb higher at Kilbeggan in June; risky. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 110y |

Won a beginners' chase at Killarney last August (2m7f, good to yielding); bounced back from being pulled up twice following that when 3l behind She's A Fine Wine last time at Kilbeggan (2m4f, good); runs from 2lb out of the handicap; others preferred despite the stable. |
