10st 6lb |
Dual chase winner over 2m4f on good ground and stays 3m; had place prospects when coming down two out in a Grade 2 handicap at Haydock last month; cheekpieces fitted then are left off, as she goes back up in trip; Slevin rides for first time and yard in fine form. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Has faced stiff tasks over hurdles on her last two starts in races won by Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer; has a bit to prove on the wellbeing front as her runs before those (chasing and hurdling) weren't her best, but both her chase wins have been on good ground at about this trip and this Irish raider now goes in cheekpieces. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Two-time winner over hurdles; won off 113 at Killarney (2m1f, good) last August; showed signs of returning to form when falling when still going well off this mark back at Killarney latest; stays this far and can go well if that fall hasn't left a mark. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Easy winner of this 12 months ago off 9lb lower and just the three starts since, one of those behind Brighterdaysahead; returned with a 10l defeat to Bowensonfire at Bellewstown and ran better at Galway, albeit looking a hard ride at times in the new cheekpieces (soon discarded); should feature. |

Back to form when beaten half a length over this C&D on May's return to action but she was tailed off at Sligo subsequently; needs to bounce back and this looks like a difficult assignment for the grade. |

Runner-up after a break at Roscommon in September (3m, soft) and then seventh of 23 at Navan (2m6f); failed to fire back there 20 days ago but in a valuable handicap; this is nothing like so demanding and she'll be keeping on with stamina guaranteed. |

Gained a breakthrough success at Sedgefield (2m1f) in April and has continued in very good form, third of 12 in 2m Uttoxeter handicap in July; cheekpieces replace blinkers and she's a likely player after a break. |
