Accounted for Qualimita in a maiden hurdle at Navan in November; stepped up on that when landing a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Cork last month; 6lb is a manageable penalty; each-way chance. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Just one win in 24, and Ffos Las near-miss on second outing for current handler likely owed something to the drop to 0-105 company (3m, heavy); limitations exposed again since and this is tougher still. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland where she was effective on good ground; conditions were heavy when going close at Ffos Las a month ago (3m) and she travelled strongly deep into that race; possibilities off 4lb higher. |
4/1 |

2nd 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland, winning just the once; made a quiet start for this yard at Chepstow but in a Class 3 handicap over 2m3f and this is easier; should handle the ground and has form over this far. |

7th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 60y |
11st 12lb |
Sligo maiden hurdle winner in August of last year (17.5f, soft); soundly beaten in mares' hurdles at Bellewstown (2m1f, good) and Listowel (2m4f, yld-sft) the last twice; could rebound back in handicap company but stamina to prove. |
9/2 |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Lowest rated of the bunch; sole win came in a Downpatrick mares' maiden hurdle last year (2m1f, soft); has been chasing in recent times with little success; back over hurdles at Bellewstown late last month when beaten 17l by Adela Icon; hard to see her turning that around. |
14/1 |

27th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 40y |
11st 3lb |
Odds-on for mares' maiden hurdle win at Sligo last summer; made the frame in mares' events at Listowel and Kilbeggan this summer; none too fluent and faded tamely on chase debut at Wexford last month; two moderate chase runs since then; question to answer. |

2nd Feb 2025 Soft 2m 2f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Her only win came in a beginners chase at Sligo in 2023; off the track for a year but two solid runs in a Fairyhouse handicap chase and behind Cast A Spell in a Cork handicap hurdle; 1lb wrong and others looks more likely. |

4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Won this race off a mark of 101 last year, her second hurdles score; however, she has been poor on her last three starts and cheekpieces need to spark a revival. |

2nd Nov 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Stayed well when winning a 2m7f handicap at Punchestown last winter; last month's seasonal debut at Tipperary was too bad to be true; needs to provide some reassurance now. |

29th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 110y |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdles winner (including here) is 1-4 over fences; that win came at Wexford (2m, good) off 7lb lower last August; out of depth in Listed hurdle latest but this more suitable and she goes well here; not out of this. |
13/2 |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Recorded a third hurdles win off a career low mark at Thurles in October (2m4f, good to yielding), beating Tir Og by a neck; decent enough sixth on Flat at Gowran back from a break last month, considering she stumbled at the start; she will have easier opportunities than this. |

10st 13lb |
Went close behind a smart type here on debut in 2023 but has failed to back that up; pulled up in 21.5f course handicap 16 days ago; mark sliding but she's hard to fancy on recent showings. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
11st 5lb |
Four-time winner over hurdles is yet to score from 12 runs over fences; recent form is concerning, tailed off in a Down Royal handicap chase earlier this month and sixth of eight over hurdles at Kilbeggan latest. |
9/1 |
|
6th 2 |
15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 50y |

Four wins over hurdles including in this race last year off 110 (good); recent form over fences not too encouraging but she's better over timber. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |

Four wins over hurdles and some of her early chase runs last autumn were promising; won hurdle over this trip at Ballinrobe and likes good ground, so better expected this time. |
