Quite lightly raced since winning this race off 68 two years ago; encouraging effort after more than nine months off in a 1m4f handicap at Tramore two weeks ago; foolish to discount. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 195y |

Winless since rattling off a treble in 2023; however, her two recent runs over 1m suggest she is close to striking again, with a close second at Leopardstown and 1.5l sixth at Galway last time; probably doesn't want it too soft; new headgear on. |

Third runner for local yard; four-time winner; last turf win in 2023 over 8.5f at Galway (soft); two AW wins since; hard to fancy on this year's form but has placed multiple times over C&D, including when runner-up at this festival last year from a stone higher; can't dismiss. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 84y |

Returns from a break/makes stable debut; consistent last year and winner of a Fairyhouse handicap last June off a mark of 56 (1m4f, good); 2.25l second at Galway and 3.75l third at Tipperary both over 1m4f on her final two starts last year mean she is now 13lb higher than her win. |

Two wins in 2024 but no joy since; back to form with a 3.25l second at Naas (2m3f, sft-hvy) 29 days ago but remains 6lb above his last win and he's 2lb higher than when beaten 6.5l in this last year; would probably prefer softer ground too. |

Tow wins, notably the Lartigue at Listowel in 2024; only once near his best in eight starts since then, namely when second in 2m6f Fairyhouse handicap last April; badly out of form in three handicap hurdle outings between October and December. |

Runner-up in the 2024 Fred Winter; won the Lartigue (big 4yo handicap) at Listowel last year; ended a run of poor form with Fairyhouse second on his final start last season; had a spin in a charity race at the Curragh in late-August, so no fitness doubts. |

Killarney win (1m, soft) came back in 2022 off 49; absent for 489 days until well-backed favourite at Gowran last month, plenty fresh and forcing much of pace before fading into midfield (reported clinically abnormal); interesting on the back of that comeback run with easier ground in her favour. |

Is 0-15; good effort on penultimate start when a 4l third off 58 at Down Royal (10.5f, soft); failed to back that up on latest at Navan; best form is over further than this and he's drawn wide; others are preferred. |
