24th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 2f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Best maiden run came here on debut but well beaten in three starts since and was pulled up on handicap debut at Cork in July; watch on first run for new yard. |

Shown very little in three runs so far and beaten a long way out on return from a year off last month; would need to improve plenty on handicap debut here. |

11st 12lb |
Largely consistent hurdler, latest win came at Limerick (16.5f, good) in handicap off 102, bolted up by 15l; couldn't land a blow off 12lb higher lto; plenty on plate on chase debut; cheekpieces tried. |

Series of placed efforts (including twice here) rewarded by 2m1f Limerick win early last month under enterprising ride, kept wide and making all in beating Dairy Force an eased 15l (good); 12lb hike makes this a lot tougher and unlikely to be given such leeway this time. |

10st 6lb |
Dual winner on Flat and over timber but nothing since 2021; handicapper giving him a chance and he has been running okay in recent starts; still involved at Listowel last time before making a mistake at the second last and weakening (2m2f, yielding); best form on better ground and over shorter. |

0-10 over hurdles but has shown glimpses of ability; now 15lb lower than when a remote fourth at Leopardstown (2m4f, yielding) in March; not a bad run at Tramore latest and this shorter trip might suit; may outrun likely odds. |

0-6 but put in an improved effort here when last seen in June (2m, good); weakened late after making the running that day so not sure she wants this longer trip and easy ground a query too. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 161y |

Inconsistent sort; won off 7lb lower here in May; down the field on her next two starts; a clear second, 11l in front of today's rival Granlahan, at Kilbeggan on penultimate start; failed to reproduce that form at the same venue two weeks later. |
