9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Has form on most types of ground; took her Cheltenham Festival record to 0-3 with a defeat in the latest Champion Hurdle but that was a respectable effort without managing to confirm placings with Lossiemouth, who had played second fiddle in the Irish equivalent; record of 2-3 at about 2m4f includes an easy success in the Mersey at this meeting two years ago; very smart mare who holds leading claims at the weights. |

2nd 7 |
10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Has form on most types of ground; hasn't lived up to expectations at this meeting for the last two years, beaten by Golden Ace in the Grade 2 novice hurdle in 2024 and only fourth (weakening when hampered) in this contest in 2025; otherwise a very smart mare and produced one of her best performances in the Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown (2m, heavy) most recently, reversing December placings with Lossiemouth and registering a fourth Grade 1 success; leading contender, provided she transfers the form to this venue. |

11st 5lb |
Beat State Man in last season's Morgiana and gave a stunning performance to win the December Hurdle here by a huge margin; nowhere near that level when a remote fourth in an incident-packed Champion Hurdle; failed to regain her best when raised in trip at Punchestown, well held in third behind two of Lossiemouth's stablemates; outpointed by Lossiemouth here at Christnas but finished close enough to suggest she can provide a powerful challenge. |

10st 11lb |
Winner over fences at Pau early last year; took a step forward on second attempt hurdling this season when a staying-on third in 2m Thurles mares Listed novice in December; no match for the talented Brighterdaysahead at Navan (2m5f) on latest but place claims. |

15th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Ran well over 2m4f here in October but this is a stiffer assignment and she has shown no further progress, well-held third to notable stablemate at Navan (Listed) most recently; sole win over hurdles came in an ordinary race last summer; others preferred. |

10st 11lb |
Dual hurdle winner; in first-time cheekpieces when winning comfortably from the front at Wexford (2m3f, yielding) and coped with sort of mark over hurdles; respected. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
11st 2lb |
Dual hurdle winner; 0-5 chasing but mild encouragement last month over C&D when modest enough third to Connemara Shore (soft); much more needed and cheekpieces tried. |

29th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

Regressed over hurdles but got off the mark in a C&D beginners race on only her second run over fences; however, was well held in a Killarney handicap only last week. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |

Regressive maiden over hurdles but showed much improved form to get off the mark on second chase start at Wexford over about 2m4f; tougher task on handicap debut but is open to improvement. |
