21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
11st 6lb |
Modest point-to-point form from three starts; narrow winner of a Sligo maiden hurdle in August and ran respectably on chasing debut at Killarney in October; unseen since tailed off here later that month; in the mix if at her best. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 50y |
10st 12lb |
Narrow winner of a Sligo maiden hurdle in August and ran respectably on chasing debut at Killarney last time; however, this is much tougher company and a place looks the best she can do. |

21st Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 0y |

Some promise in points for Derek O'Connor; ran a bit green when third on hurdling debut at Roscommon; failed to improve at Ballinrobe before coming good with a narrow success at Sligo last month; may want further ideally but not without a chance. |

Winner of a Tipperary bumper by a nose last October; has made the frame in four of her five maiden hurdle starts and was in contention when falling at the last at Wexford; went close at Sligo last month, after making the running, headed last stride; solid chance. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 170y |

Dual-purpose maiden had been placed over hurdles for Gordon Elliott but has been poor in two starts for this yard (both here) and needs improvement on her best form anyway. |

3rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 80y |

Point-to-point form doesn't offer much encouragement and has been well beaten in a Galway bumper and Sligo maiden hurdle most recently; needs to find heaps of improvement. |

Point-to-point winner showed signs of ability in bumpers but her maiden hurdle runs below that, most recently seemingly not getting home in 2m3f Cork mares' maiden last month; back up in trip here for handicap debut. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |

8/1 |

5th 5 |
18th Nov 2025 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |
10st 8lb |
Initial promise in bumpers; modest form in maiden hurdles until an improved display when winning a 2m3f maiden at this venue a month ago; hard to be sure if the return to a shorter trip will bring out the best in her. |
6/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 0y |

Initial promise in bumpers; rated 86 after three maiden hurdle runs and needs to find more but gets the mares' allowance and a good 7lb claimer aboard helps. |

Best of her maiden hurdle runs when a remote second of six at Down Royal in April; tailed off twice at Downpatrick since, including in a handicap off a low rating; up against it. |

10th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |

Best of maiden hurdle runs was when she plugged on to finish a 25l second of six at Down Royal on penultimate run; tailed off and last of all over C&D last time; can improve entering handicaps but others more likely. |

20th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Placed in three of her last four races, every chance if a step up in trip does the trick after a recent second placing in a 16-runner 2m contest at Clonmel; more mature now than when fading in the closing stages over C&D last November. |
9/2 |

Just denied at Limerick in December over 2m3f and best run since was when beaten 10l over this trip at Naas last time; needs a bit more but a player. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 190y |

Second foal; dam unplaced in points/bumper, closely related to 2m/2m4f hurdle winner Howyabud, half-sister to bumper and useful 2m-2m1f hurdle/chase winner Maria's Benefit; not a bad pedigree but seems to be the stable second-string on debut. |

Handicap debutante sent off at long odds and showed very little in a trio of maidens at around 2m1f; steps up in trip (should suit on pedigree) and is worth checking in the market. |
