16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Fairly treated on her back-to-back runner-up efforts over 7f on AW/turf in August but not quite at the same level in recent starts; Captain Parma is the more obvious of her prolific stable's pair. |
15/2 |

5th 3 (6) |
17th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-Irish soft/heavy-ground winner; 0-10 for James Owen since June; has posted some good efforts in defeat but struggles for consistency and it was one of her lesser efforts when fifth of seven at Chester (7f, good) on Friday; first run at 6f for over two years. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo who is 0-9 for James Owen since the spring; has posted some good efforts in defeat, most recently when third at Lingfield (7f, AW) last week, but her tendency to race too freely and/or start slowly is a nagging concern. |

8st 10lb |
Is 1-16 on turf and no win since June 2023; not bad efforts the last twice in a Naas handicap and a Gowran claimer but more needed back in a handicap off this mark; others appeal more. |

Turf record is poor (0-26) but more effective on AW (2-25); this year's form hasn't offered much but is 8lb below last winning mark so can't be totally discounted. |

1-27 on the Flat; gained his first success in a 1m Gowran handicap at the start of the season but has lost his way more recently and hard to recommend on the back of a poor run at the Curragh last month. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Rattled up a hat-trick in 0-50 classified events on Tapeta for Daragh Bourke (7f-9.5f) in January; has run with credit in her last three starts for this yard, but still has to conclusively prove she wants this far. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Rattled up a hat-trick for Daragh Bourke (7f-9.5f) earlier in the year; similar level of form since joining this trainer, runner-up over 8.5f here on penultimate start, and perhaps found 1m4f too far at Catterick (6-4 favourite) a fortnight ago; chance. |
5/2 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three classified events at up to 9.4f in the space of four days in January when trained by Daragh Bourke; better effort in handicaps for new yard when second off 11 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 19 days ago; good shout on that form buts need to prove that he's as effective on turf (0-9) and that he has the stamina for this much longer trip. |
