17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 0lb |
Dual winner over both hurdles and fences on decent ground; two recent runs leave her with a fair bit to find and cheekpieces now tried. |
14/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 2lb |
Rated 10lb higher over fences; hasn't been seen over hurdles since April of last year when tailed off at Punchestown and only 2lb lower now; pulled up in Mayo National on latest; others preferred. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |

Better chaser than hurdler; couple of wins over 2m6f last summer, but much stiffer task here after a layoff and O'Keeffe prefers yard's other runner. |

10st 12lb |
Better hurdler than a chaser, and her last three runs over fences do nothing to dispute that; pulled up at Roscommon on her return. |
16/1 |

8th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 150y |

Better hurdler than chaser; she is at least back off her correct mark this time but wouldn't be the percentage call; now an 11yo. |

Made all to win her eighth race over jumps at Galway last time; 9lb higher and may not get away with the same runaway tactics today but still on the shortlist. |

11st 6lb |
Won well at Ballinrobe over 2m1f but not as good at Roscommon since over nearly 2m6f, a trip she stays; off the same mark and has to do more. |

29th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 146y |
10st 10lb |
Running well when falling over 3m at Punchestown in November (good) and defied an absence to win going away at Ballinrobe (soft), which was a good effort at 2m1f; might well cope with the 8lb rise. |

May have needed last month's run here after a break; runs this track well and won this 12 months ago off only 3lb lower; considered. |
6/1 |

5th 9 |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 140y |
11st 2lb |
Five-time hurdles winner (including here) is 1-6 in chases, with that win also coming over this C&D (2m6f, gd-yld); clearly likes it here but lacks a run and remains 4lb above her last chase win. |
16/1 |

30th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Five hurdle wins, including here, plus one chase score; won at Tramore over this trip last time and is 5lb higher in a better race so needs a bit more. |

29th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 5f 146y |
10st 11lb |
1-10 over hurdles; puzzling effort last time (handicap) but had made a winning chase debut at Downpatrick (2m7f beginners'), beating Betty Dutton; considered with Eoin Staples claiming the 7lb. |
5/1 |

8th 10 |
6th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 70y |
10st 7lb |
A 95-rated hurdler; made a winning chase debut at Downpatrick; opening mark is 14lb above hurdles rating; however, she is probably on the upgrade and could feature. |
6/1 |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 150y |

Won a beginners' chase at Killarney last August but pretty poor since then, other than when third off 3lb higher at Kilbeggan in June; risky. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 70y |

29th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
