9st 6lb |
Four-time winner at around 1m with ease in the ground on all occasions; handles good ground too and is also effective beyond a mile, as she showed when second in a fillies' handicap over an extended 1m3f at Killarney; has made the frame in all except one of her last seven starts. |

Four-time winner over 1m with ease in the ground on all occasions, including at this meeting last year; handles good ground too; has never tackled a trip this far, but just failed over 1m1f at Gowran and every chance that she will get it; big player if she does. |

Enjoyed a terrific spell last October, notching three wins and two places during a hectic spell; maintained his rate of improvement when beating 24 rivals in the Irish Lincoln on return; early-season form also included second in a 1m2f premier handicap at the Curragh; unplaced twice in Listed races this term; handicap form gives him a leading chance; drawn low. |

Enjoyed a terrific spell last October, notching three wins and two places during a hectic spell; maintained his rate of improvement when beating 24 rivals in the Irish Lincoln on return; not as effective over an extended 1m2f in a Listed race at Naas; back to form quickly to take second in a 1m2f premier handicap at the Curragh; this is probably closer to his optimum trip. |

Showed improved form earlier this year, winning a Gowran handicap in good style and followed up in a Listed race over 9.5f at the same track; solid in defeat since including against the classy Purview here last time; should run well. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Started season with back-to-back wins at Gowran, a 1m handicap (soft) and a 9.5f Listed race (10.5f, gd-yld); not disgraced in 1m Group 2 here (good) last month and again ran well when beaten 1l in 1m (good) Listed race at Navan three weeks ago; this longer trip fine and preferred by Browne-McMonagle, but rated 100 so needs to find more in this company. |

Down the field in a Group 2 event at the Curragh a fortnight ago; had previously stamped herself as an improving filly with two Gowran wins, the second of which was in this grade, earning a 3lb penalty; 100-rated filly is joint top-rated on official ratings with two of the younger generation. |

Back from a break with a C&D (soft) second 1.5l behind Earls early last month and same mark now; won her maiden over C&D on heavy and not a bad run at the Curragh latest; solid chance if the visor ekes out a little bit more. |
