8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 1f 24y |
10st 13lb |
Displayed credentials for a race of this nature when a 12l third of 15 in the Mayo National at Ballinrobe last year off 132; ordinary form on last three starts last autumn and off the track since but now 3lb lower than she was at Ballinrobe and she needs checking in the market on return for top yard. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 4f 0y |
11st 11lb |
Useful mare, though not as effective as she promised to be early in her career; -1-9 over fences, placed four times, including third in the Mayo National; moderate run at Sligo last time, but has to be taken seriously. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 2f 185y |
11st 12lb |
Best right-handed and on good ground; both hurdle wins have been after a layoff; two wins over fences last year, over 2m4f at Kilbeggan and when easily landing Cork handicap over 2m1f in October; chase mark is now 130. |
9/4 |

12th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 140y |
10st 5lb |
Won at Kilbeggan in May (20.5f, good) off 117 and far from disgraced off 122 in the Blazers at Galway (22.5f, good); below best in listed handicap chase at Killarney (2m5f) latest; could rebound returned to a right-handed track, though this trip might be sharp enough. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 180y |
10st 9lb |
Two-time winning hurdler; improved on two beginners' chase starts to win on handicap bow over fences at Kilbeggan in June off 117 (2m4f, good); solid runs in defeat the last twice following her victory, including a 4.75l sixth in a valuable Galway handicap chase last time (2m6f, good); in good form at the moment. |

Has failed to build on the second placing obtained on his chasing debur at Clonmel during the summer; hard to fancy against the background of a poor run in a Clonmel handicap won by Winding River. |

24th Oct 2024 Good 2m 4f 156y |

Has a nice bit of experience over fences but is 0-6 and she put in one of her lesser efforts when fourth of seven at Sligo latest; in top hands but more needed on her handicap debut in this sphere. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 45y |
11st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences when easy winner of 2m4f Limerick Listed handicap at Christmas (soft-to-heavy); out of frame in competitive Leopardstown handicaps twice since, most recently running well for long way and may have got a bit closer but for mistake last; drops in grade, one to consider. |
9/2 |

2nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |
10st 6lb |
Three hurdle wins include at this track; off the mark over fences when easy winner of 2m4f Limerick Listed handicap at Christmas (soft-to-heavy) but didn't appear to quite get home over this C&D in Grade Leopardstown Chase last month off 7lb higher mark; not one to dismiss all the same. |

1st Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 107y |

Three hurdle wins including at this track; got off the mark over fences when an easy winner of a Limerick Listed chase last time; a 7lb rise looks manageable and handles the ground, so a player. |

Won a good ground mares' hurdle at Down Royal in June 2023; not many positives to take from four runs since; pulled up on her sole start on soft ground; in good hands but others hold more pressing claims. |

Boasts a fair record over hurdles, 2-12, placed three times; struggling to make an impact over fences before unplaced hurdles run on latest; stable's two other runners are more appealing. |

Won well at Ballinrobe over 2m1f but not as good at Roscommon since over nearly 2m6f, a trip she stays; off the same mark and has to do more. |

Running well when falling over 3m at Punchestown in November (good) and defied an absence to win going away at Ballinrobe (soft), which was a good effort at 2m1f; might well cope with the 8lb rise. |
