12th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 166y |
11st 7lb |
Not the most consistent on the Flat but useful on her day and three wins to her name, including over 1m4f at 2024 Galway festival; hurdling debut and has been off since November. |

Similar mark off which she won over 1m4f at Galway over a year ago but struggling to recapture that level of form, with last two runs very disappointing; this only her second run on the AW. |

Dual-purpose; sole win on the Flat came on the AW off 67 over 1m4f for Ger Lyons; no impact in a trio of maiden hurdles on testing ground but drying track will suit on his handicap debut; could improve and is worth a market check. |

Landed a 1m4f handicap here for Ger Lyons in November; campaigned over hurdles by his current trainer, running respectably behind Boodles hopeful Ndaawi at Naas; blinkers back on here and not without a chance if he stays. |

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. |
12/1 |

6th 14 (10) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 4f 0y |
8st 10lb |
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. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 210y |

Consistent on AW at three, winning over 1m4f; had some good hurdling form, without winning, in 2024; just one run over flights last year; ran well in a charity race at the Curragh on Derby weekend; has to enter calculations in such a weak contest. |
