A tailed off finish in a Tramore handicap last time was not the greatest stable debut; best watched for the moment. |

Progressive in handicaps last year; gained third win in 2m4f Clonmel mares' event in October; has been found wanting in conditions races since; may have needed recent Killarney run. |

Progressive handicapper was gaining a third win of 2025 when landing a 2m4f Clonmel mares' handicap in October in first-time tongue tie (yielding); her two outings in December against better company were not her best; the break may have done her good, but a bit to find. |

Sprang an 80-1 surprise at Kilbeggan (3m1f, gd-yld) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) three weeks ago; up 5lb and drops back in trip (has won at 21.5f before); ground fine and could go well again. |

First reserve; belated first win at Sligo on latest (2m2f, good) 14 days ago; raised 7lb, this is a tougher race and not sure the drop back in trip is ideal. |

Got her act together over hurdles towards the end of last season with two Clonmel wins on contrasting ground; up a total of 15lb for those wins (margin roughly one length in both); chased home an easy winner at Tipperary on her seasonal debut; can be a player off this mark if jumping adequately on chase debut. |
