Didn't run badly when fifth of eight at Kelso (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and continues to slip down the weights but has modest 2-21 strike-rate over hurdles; others appeal more. |

Back-to-back winner at Bellewstown (2m1f, yielding) and Down Royal (2m2f, good) in April/May; decent C&D effort on penultimate when a clear runner-up off this mark; pulled up here last time though, so hard to know what to expect now. |

Front-runner; second on handicap debut at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in February and she's been a fair fifth in double-figure fields at Down Royal (2m4f, good) and Ayr (2m4f, good to soft) the next twice; it was a 0-120 last time and she's tackling a 0-100 today; could be involved back down in grade. |

Remains a maiden after 17 starts but just five of those have been over hurdles and she ran well from the front on her handicap debut in this code when second over C&D (soft) in February; fair fifth of 19 at Down Royal (2m4f, good) since when inconvenienced by jumping to the left, and she could play a leading role now back at a left-handed track. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |

Modest overall form over hurdles; has run twice over fences (fell on latest) since finishing in mid-field in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Gowran in November; before that, not a bad run when seventh in a 19-runner contest over 2m at Punchestown. |

In fine form after blinkers were added in early summer, winning at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) and Hexham (3m, good), before disappointing at Market Rasen last month when reportedly unsuited by the track; retains chase potential and could prove up to this mark if bouncing back. |

Dual Flat winner but nothing since 2022; yet to score from 28 runs over hurdles; ran well over C&D in July when runner-up off this mark; pulled up over hurdles next time; he's better in this sphere, but long losing run drastically reduces his appeal. |

Consistent over fences recently; finished second at Naas in December (2m, heavy) and bounced back from a below par run with two runner-up finishes in his last two starts at Navan (3m, soft to heavy) and Fairyhouse (3m, heavy); makes stable debut back over hurdles off a 9lb lower mark, but may not be as effective over timber and ground also a question. |
