Dual C&D winner won her eighth race in total when got back to form at Gowran last time over this trip; runs off her 5lb lower AW mark and though has a tough draw should be involved again. |

3rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 61y |
10st 1lb |
Hasn't won for three years and only had two outings last term; fair fourth in race featuring several of these at Navan (6f) in March and kept on well from long way back (missed break) when third over 5f there last weekend; likely to be strong at the finish, but the break will be crucial from gate one. |

On a losing run since April 2023; however, put up a sound effort here over 6f here (sft) on return off this mark; handles better ground so if improving from that has a chance. |

Useful form in 2024, winning over this trip at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year; not a bad 7f run here on seasonal debut and may improve over the extra furlong. |
