11st 5lb |
Daughter of multiple Cheltenham Festival winner Quevega, sister to the top-class Facile Vega; three-time bumper winner; 3-5 over hurdles this season, most significant success when beating Dream On Baby over 2m2f here in January; plenty to prove after mid-field finish behind Air Of Entitlement at Cheltenham. |

11st 4lb |
It's in her blood to win at Cheltenham, as a daughter of multiple Festival winner Quevega and a sister to Facile Vega who won the Champion Bumper and finished second in a Supreme; she's not yet in their league and not by a long chalk, but she is 6-9 under rules after bagging a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse in January (2m2f, soft; has won on good); that was more workmanlike than super-stylish but she's very much in the reckoning with Paul Townend up top. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Smart hurdles form since last seen on the Flat; won Listed event at Kempton (2m5f, good) last November; third to Woodhoh in Grade 3 at Leopardstown, second in a 3m Grade 2 at Doncaster; out of her depth in Grade 1 at Cheltenham; runner-up in all three starts in Flat maidens last season, the first over C&D; likely Galway-bound, but hard to oppose here. |

12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 56y Class 1 |
11st 5lb |
Steadily progressive; won Listed event at Kempton (2m5f, good) in November; has advanced her form in defeat since, finishing third to Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer in Grade 3 at Leopardstown (2m4f, good/yielding) over Christmas before getting outstayed by the latter in a 3m Grade 2 at Doncaster (soft) in January; likeable but surely far more a place than win contender. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 1 |

Steadily progressive; won Listed event at Kempton (2m5f, good) in November and seemed to perform even better when third to the classy Wodhooh in Grade 3 at Leopardstown (2m4f, good/yielding; 18-1) over Christmas; more to find again and has stamina to prove as well, but she may not have reached her limit. |

Bumper and hurdles winner has been disappointing overall over fences and in one hurdle run this year, except for when second of six over fences at Tramore (2m, good) on penultimate; others are more appealing. |

Useful hurdler with placed form in Listed and Graded company as a novice; much improved on fourth chase start at Tramore when close second, around 2l in front of Pampar Lady in race in which Future Prospect departed two out; not sure to appreciate this extra half-mile. |

Point-to-point winner won Clonmel maiden hurdle last year and some decent efforts in defeat in graded races; 0-5 chasing but decent placings including here in November and last month at Limerick when only weakening late in finishing third in 2m4f handicap; cheekpieces now added. |

Second runner for yard; point winner took a Clonmel maiden hurdle on rules debut last year and some decent efforts in defeat in graded races after; posted a solid chasing debut at Listowel last time after an absence and can go well with improvement. |

Two bumper wins in 2023 included Listed Cheltenham event; debut hurdles win in Naas maiden last season hasn't been added to, best effort chasing home a clear winner in 5-runner 2m1f Clonmel conditions event in January; 2m4f in soft ground seemed beyond her in Grade 3 mares contest latest; back in trip here with cheekpieces tried and drops in class. |

26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 63y |
11st 7lb |
Point-to-point and Cork bumper winner; impressive winner of maiden hurdle in Dec '24 before failing to improve in Graded company twice; step in right direction when second to Topgun Simmy at Down Royal in May; heavy fall at seventh fence on chasing debut at Thurles 21 days ago after ten months off; yard won this last year, acts on all ground and capable of a big run. |

5th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 2f 22y |

Bumper winner who landed Cork mares' maiden in December; outclassed in Grade 3 mares' novices at Fairyhouse and Limerick; not seen since second to Topgun Simmy (has won twice since) at Down Royal (3m) last May; beat the classy Dysart Enos on sole point-to-point outing; goes well fresh; big player on chase debut. |

10st 6lb |
She's thrived this season and made it 3-5 for the yard (wins at 1m7f-2m1f on good to soft/heavy) when winning big-field mares' novice handicap at Kelso four weeks ago; from out of the handicap she's 12lb higher today back against males but it remains to be seen where her limitations lie. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |

Two wins (1m7f/2m, good to soft/heavy) from her first three starts for this yard and perhaps her latest run at Newbury three weeks ago came too soon, just six days after she won at Fontwell; not discounted. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 4 |

Ex-Irish mare who is 2-3 for new stable, most recently scoring in a canter at Fontwell (2m1f, heavy) last Sunday; open to further progress and looks well in under a 7lb penalty; commands respect. |
