14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Beat Red Letter over 1m at Navan in June and followed up with a Group 3 win over an extended 1m2f at Naas; failed to uphold form with Red Letter over 1m1f here last time, and that rival may have her measure again. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Experienced 3yo who has taken well to gradual step up in trip this year, winning last two starts in June, in 1m Navan Listed (beating Red Letter and recent Listed winner Thalara) and saw out extended 1m2f at Naas well when making all; slight ease in the ground fine, won't want too much rain though; has to concede 3lb to Red Letter. |

Experienced 3yo who finished just a neck behind Coronation Stakes winner Cercene when third in the Athasi Stakes last month (1m, good); a number of placed efforts at Group level; dropped in class and stayed on to win a Navan Listed contest last time; step up in trip here looks positive. |

Second runner for yard; won a C&D maiden in 2024; gained a deserved Listed success at Killarney over 1m last time after some solid runs in defeat at that level; has run well over C&D but the forecast testing ground is a concern. |

Limerick maiden winner on soft; followed a poor run over 6f at Cork with a career-best at Naas (7f, gd) 25 days ago when making all in Listed race; needs to build on that and not guaranteed to do so; likely to go forward. |

Twice a winner in France (one on soft) at 1m2f and extended 1m3f; 0-11 this term for current yard but some solid efforts including latest when strong-finishing third in Naas fillies Listed a week ago over this trip (yielding); this looks a better race so more required. |

One of three for yard; rated 94 and shaped nicely when a 3.25l third of 9 in a listed race at Killarney (1m, good) last month; won on soft ground in France and is preferred by McMonagle so has to be considered for yard that won this in 2021 and 2022. |
