17th Aug 2025 Good 2m 6f 0y |

0-23 over hurdles but she has finished second four times; beaten 5l into second at Leopardstown off 86 in March 2023; went close off 84, 86 and 87 later that year; well-handicapped now off 80 but she hasn't shown enough in four runs this season; needs a revival. |

A fair 2m7f-winning chaser but he was pulled up back hurdling in 3m Fairyhouse handicap in April on his final run for Thomas Cooper; cheekpieces go on for his new yard and he can't be ruled out after a break with Brian Hughes up. |
