Bumper winner and third in an Aintree Grade 2 mares' event; won her first two races over hurdles; failed to run to expectations in Galway festival event won by stablemate Arctic Fly; recovered from that lapse to beat Bialystok and today's rival Birdie Or Bust at Tipperary, with Arctic Fly a remote fourth; strong contender. |

19th May 2023 Good 2m 2f 165y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner in 2021 has run some cracking races in defeat in six hurdle tries, including when second here in April; below that level at Tramore since at 2m when 4-7fav; needs to return to previous best. |

2nd 2 |
17th Apr 2023 Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Useful bumper performer has stepped up a level in performance on latest two maiden hurdle runs, finishing second at Navan (2m, heavy) and chased home a warm favourite over 2m6f at Downpatrick on soft; clearly trip-versatile but this sharp 2m possibly not ideal; major player all the same. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Resumed winning ways over fences at Stratford (2m1f) in March but below par both runs since, beating just one in 2m4f Warwick handicap chase last month; needs to take a big step forward back in this sphere. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Landed his fourth win over fences at Stratford in March (2m1f, soft) but his Huntingdon third was remote and some inconsistency has crept in. |

Back to his best after a three-month break when landing his fourth win over fences at Stratford (2m1f, soft) last month; up 5lb but recorded back-to-back victories around this time last year so not to be taken lightly. |

Twice placed in 2m4f hurdle races here last summer (good) but ended last year's campaign on a low, achieving little on October's chasing debut; can't be certain he will hit the ground running in 2026. |

21st Mar 2023 Heavy 2m 2f 112y |

Half-brother to bumper winner and smart chaser Castlebawn West was plenty keen for inexperienced rider on Leopardstown debut over Christmas when fourth to an odds-on stablemate; Patrick Mullins now takes over and no surprise if he improved enough to play a major role. |

Four-time hurdles winner whose first Flat success came on Southwell AW (1m6f) in January; has kept his form pretty well, including over 2m, and is considered seriously in this small field despite having had just two races (2025) on Flat turf. |

Registered a first Flat win when scoring over C&D in January and it was a creditable effort when chasing home St Faz at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) six days ago; work to do if he's to turn the tables but still one of the more likely ones. |
