11st 7lb |
Last year's winner took well to fences this season, finishing second in Limerick Grade 2 over Christmas before going one better in similar company at Thurles (2m5f, yielding) in January; right at her best back hurdling in Grade 1 Mares' Hurdle at Cheltenham when a clear staying-on second to Wodhooh (beaten 1l) having allowed winner first run (good); cheekpieces now fitted for the rematch. |

11st 5lb |
5-7 over hurdles; second to stablemate Lossiemouth in this last year before a Grade 1 win at the Punchestown festival, her second success at the top level; has taken well to fences this winter, finishing second in Limerick Grade 2 over Christmas before going one better in similar company at Thurles (2m5f, yielding) in January; most consistent and looks sure to go well back hurdling. |

10st 12lb |
5-7 over hurdles; second to stablemate Lossiemouth at Cheltenham last March before Grade 1 win at the Punchestown festival, her second success at top level; jumped untidily at times and more broadly disappointing on chase debut at Cork; showed sufficient improvement when second at Limerick to suggest she can beat the winner's stablemate Tareze. |

Last run on the Flat was at Leopardstown last September when she finished in the mid-division from a 3lb higher mark (1m5f, good); won a Listed mares' hurdle at Punchestown last November before being well beaten in three Graded hurdle starts; trainer may have a better prospect for this in Too Bossy For Us |

15th Mar 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 42y |
10st 7lb |
Heavy-ground specialist; in fine form last season over hurdles with four wins in handicaps at 2m4f-3m1f; has blotted her copybook in recent months with an unseat and two refusals, the most recent three in a Grade 3 mares hurdle at Punchestown. |

20th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 23y |
10st 9lb |
Heavy-ground specialist in fine form last season over hurdles with four wins in handicaps at 2m4f-3m1f; looked likely to take advantage of 35lb lower chase mark at Tramore when last seen but refused to jump the last; tough task on these terms but market will be the best guide; blinkered. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 30y |
10st 2lb |
Decent NH mare, winning a bumper and three times over hurdles at up to 3m; recent chase form not quite at same level but useful; previous two Flat runs include decent fourth in 1m7f Leopardstown amateur maiden last summer; would probably appreciate a stiffer test. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 70y |

Three-time hurdle winner with some excellent efforts in competitive handicaps; second behind Perceval Legallois at DRF last season off 133; ran to a good level on chase debut over C&D a year ago; failed to repeat that until last month's Cork second, confirming winning potential |

10st 6lb |
Dual chase winner over 2m4f on good ground and stays 3m; had place prospects when coming down two out in a Grade 2 handicap at Haydock last month; cheekpieces fitted then are left off, as she goes back up in trip; Slevin rides for first time and yard in fine form. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Has faced stiff tasks over hurdles on her last two starts in races won by Wodhooh and Feet Of A Dancer; has a bit to prove on the wellbeing front as her runs before those (chasing and hurdling) weren't her best, but both her chase wins have been on good ground at about this trip and this Irish raider now goes in cheekpieces. |
25/1 |

80-1 when last of five behind Wodhooh at Leopardstown four weeks ago, finishing behind Feet Of A Dancer and Dream On Baby; faces another stern assignment. |
