16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 100y |
10st 8lb |
Ballinrobe maiden winner last season (2m1f, good); well held twice since over around 2m4f, latest after winter break in Gowran handicap in February on heavy; ground looks against her here. |

31st May 2025 Good 2m 4f 80y |
10st 11lb |
Lightly raced mare came good on third maiden hurdle run when taking 2m1f Ballinrobe mares contest last month, possibly not suited by tight track but never stronger than at the finish; good chance she'll find more at this longer trip and respected on handicap debut with capable claiming amateur booked. |

11st 11lb |
Maiden showed promise in bumpers in 2024 but has disappointed a bit in handicap company; good third at Limerick (2m4f, good) in July; matched that with 5l third at Tramore nine days ago; needs more but definitely capable; tongue-tie added with existing cheekpieces. |

3rd 2 |
13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 100y |

Maiden showed promise in four bumpers in 2024 and in two maiden hurdles last year; hit and miss this year and has to rebound from two poor runs. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-11 overall, mostly in Ireland, and she's not yet lived up to her bumper form; cheekpieces last four starts, tailed off in a handicap at Stratford (extended 2m2f) latest; stays 2m4f but this needs to be one of her good days. |

Three-time winner on soft ground, including over C&D; hasn't won in over a year though, no show on both recent runs after a break; back in trip here and McMonagle booked but not an obvious one. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 195y |
9st 8lb |
Three-time winner on soft ground, including a C&D win off 70 this time last year; never figured from a wide draw at Listowel nine days ago after fruitless run over hurdles; Billy Lee booked; big player if close to her best; cheekpieces go back on. |

Three-time winner on soft ground; returns from a break after five fruitless runs over hurdles; remains 6lb above her last win but talented claimer takes off 7lb; conditions fine and could outrun likely odds. |

11st 0lb |
Minor promise in maidens; failed to make an impact off opening mark of 98 at Cork in June (2m4f, good); drops in trip, 3lb lower here and probably capable of better but a bit to prove for now. |

11th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Has shown ability without threatening in maiden hurdle company, although it was a poor run at Wexford last time out; handicapper has given her a squeak from this opening mark. |

Rated 100; showed promise when staying on for a 12l fifth of 13 in a mares' maiden at Ballinrobe (2m1f, good); soft ground may not have suited latest; go well back on this sounder surface. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 162y |

Just hints of ability in maidens but has been poor in two handicaps; however, was favourite last time at Clonmel so is surely better than showing; can't be ruled out with blinkers added. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |

Bits and pieces of form, albeit beaten a long way; handicap debut (after winter break) at Kilbeggan last month mildly encouraging and entitled to come on for that. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 50y |

Showed bits and pieces of ability in four runs before pulling up on handicap debut at Punchestown (3m, heavy) when found to have bled; 24l fourth in a Clonmel maiden last time (2m3f, soft); more needed. |

Versatile sort has won from 1m-1m4f; uneven form over hurdles and on the Flat this term and was poor at Tramore last time; can start slowly; needs her best. |

Dual-purpose mare; not the most consistent sort but has run well in two of her three turf outings this year, including when third over a shorter trip at Down Royal last month; almost two years since her last win. |

Dual-purpose mare who went close over 1m2f at Sligo (good) but disappointed there over hurdles last time when 23l behind the winner; she has won twice on the Flat with her last win coming at Gowran in 2023 off a 5lb higher mark; can't be dismissed. |
