Both wins in Ireland, a 7f AW handicap and a maiden hurdle on good; up and down in ten runs for this yard but was bang there in the latest at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft); hard to rule out. |

Belied 50-1 odds when very respectable fourth over C&D (good) 11 days ago and is 1lb lower now but her record in Britain is very mixed and others in this line-up are more persuasive. |

11th May 2023 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Placed in two juvenile hurdles for Gordon Elliott in Ireland last summer but both Flat runs for Laura Mongan have been disappointing; beaten 30l (albeit on soft ground) in recent Windsor handicap and looks risky on today's handicap hurdle debut. |

24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Expensive to follow in Ireland, including over hurdles, and is with her third yard already (picked up for £10,000 last autumn); is better off now into a handicap but needs a deal more back from a layoff. |

Ex-Irish filly formerly with Johnny Murtagh and Gordon Elliott; finished third on three occasions for the last-named, including on her final start in a 1m4f Gowran maiden; bought for £10,000; should give a decent account. |

Won the fourth race of her career when running away with a Ballinrobe handicap over just short of 1m2f; disappointing off higher marks since but has a chance down to this grade. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
His last win was over two years ago but he's well treated on old form and was only beaten 3l at Stratford (2m, good to firm) last month; has each-way claims if he can back that up and he won't mind what the weather does. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 103y |
10st 8lb |
Dual-purpose mare was gaining her first Flat win in nearly two years when getting up late over 1m2f at Navan on Saturday (first two clear); quick return under mandatory 7lb penalty (upped 10lb in future) and longer trip in her favour. |

Dual-purpose mare hasn't won on the Flat since October 2024; has had a break since two runs on heavy ground at the Curragh in March, may just need this. |

28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 4f 0y |

Dual-purpose; 5-55 on turf on the Flat but on losing run since scoring at Leopardstown (1m4f, heavy) in October 2024; is now 17lb below that win and she shaped promisingly over an inadequate 1m here 13 days ago in a first-time tongue tie (retained); could go well back up in trip. |

Five-time winner was wonderfully consistent in defeat on AW over winter/spring, placing in four consecutive runs at 1m4f-2m; continued that form back on turf at Roscommon (1m4f, yielding to soft) in May when again a runner-up; a visor replaced the previously worn cheekpieces at Navan (1m5f, good) last time and resulted in a victory; up 5lb but he's a player. |

Knocking on the door on the AW earlier this year; fine run on return to turf when a 1.75l second at Roscommon (Mapa behind); nudged up 1lb but should be thereabouts again; visor goes on. |
