20th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Second of two for yard; 1m3f maiden winner gained deserved first stakes' win in dominant fashion on her final start of 2024 in a Listed heat at Galway (1m4f, yielding); best form is on ground with an ease and at 1m3f-1m4f; probably best watched on her return unless the ground softens. |

Displayed clear promise over 1m on both 2yo starts and, following a wind op, displayed big jolt of improvement to win easily by 15l at Kempton (1m3f, AW; first-time hood) a fortnight ago; has more on her plate here but it's very hard to gauge the limit of her ability. |

9st 2lb |
One of two for yard; Cork maiden winner has placed multiple times in Listed company; beaten 5.75l behind Fleur De Chine on latest at Naas (1m4f, yielding) when not enjoying the smoothest of passages; could get closer to that rival in new cheekpieces but heavy ground is an unknown and deserted by Hayes. |

Won Cork maiden on debut last summer and has contested Listed events in five of six starts since, including over this trip when chasing home a 4l winner at the Curragh and third at Roscommon (Cheeky Wink second); closely matched with a couple of these on recent Galway run when left with fair bit to do; could go well. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 200y |
9st 9lb |
Dual-purpose mare, whose only Flat win came in Leopardstown 3yo maiden (1m2f); in good form however this term in very competitive handicaps, second at Navan, close fourth of 15 in 2m2f Chester Cup and 4.5l off stablemate Kizlyar when seventh of 20 in 2m4f Ascot Stakes last month; bit to find with some of these now entering Group company but don't rule out. |
8/1 |

7th 7 (20) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; second at Navan (1m6f, heavy) in March on Flat handicap debut; backed that up with her excellent, close fourth of 15 when third favourite for the Chester Cup (2m2f, good; 1lb higher today) in May, coming from towards rear after a slow start; has to be considered but such a wide draw may mean she again has to come from well back. |
12/1 |

4th 8 (6) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Yard runs three; well beaten in Listed races last autumn but, fit from hurdling, made a good Flat return when second at Navan (1m6f, heavy) at the end of March; that was both her Flat handicap debut and the furthest she's been in this sphere, which opens up possibilities for her as a Flat stayer. |

In great form earlier this season notching up back-to-back handicap wins at Cork off 75 and Gowran Park off 82; not disgraced in a Cork Group 3 (1m4f, good) on her penultimate start but well-beaten in a Listed heat at Gowran Park on latest; probably up against it in this company. |

Both wins in August, so coming into her time of year; money for her when fourth over 1m2f here in May, and stayed on from rear when fifth in the Ladies Derby over 1m2f at the Curragh, a race won by well-backed stablemate; that run might have sweetened her up and she can reverse placings with third-placed Cooley's Mist; hampered when fourth to Tatum in last year's renewal; has won over 1m4f. |

Three-time turf winner but hasn't got her head in front since scoring off 12lb higher at Ballinrobe (1m5f, soft) in July 2024; three runs this term poor but acts on good ground and was second in this last season off 12lb higher; could revive. |

3-27 on turf on the Flat; last win came over C&D (soft) in July 2024 off 11lb higher; hasn't really shaped like a winner in waiting in two runs this season; her last run at Roscommon wasn't too bad but more needed to get her head back in front and she's 1lb wrong. |
