4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 35y |
10st 13lb |
Got off the mark over fences at Naas in November over 2m4f and a decent run in defeat over a similar trip at this track since; races off the same mark today up in trip and can be a player if staying. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 0f 160y |
10st 10lb |
Naas handicap hurdle win last April took her hurdles mark to 109; showed a bit more on third run over fences at Fairyhouse last month and possibility of more to come now entering handicaps (7lb lower than hurdles). |

Naas handicap hurdle win last April took her hurdles mark to 109; first two chase starts imply she will need to get a mark. |

Outclassed in a Grade 2 at Punchestown ten days ago and two seconds over fences suggest she could be a factor back in a handicap. |
8/1 |

1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 55y |

Sligo maiden hurdle winner is 0-6 over fences and rated 103; out of her depth in this company. |

Sligo maiden hurdle winner last August has run some fine races in defeat over fences since; had excuses for a poor run at Navan last time and the cheekpieces worn then are left off; has run well here before; chance. |

4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 35y |
11st 12lb |
Dual hurdle winner scored her sole chase win in a C&D Q.R. handicap last year; not a bad effort in that same race last time and is down 1lb so is worth considering. |
9/2 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 45y |
11st 12lb |
Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences here in January (19.5f, soft); failed to land a blow in the Kim Muir when last seen; chance if ready to rock after an absence back over timber. |
5/1 |

13th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Stayed on for second at Fairyhouse (2m4f, yielding) in December on fourth chase start and got off the mark in this sphere at Punchestown (extended 2m6f, soft) in January; this is tougher but she travelled well and found plenty last time, and this step up in trip could unlock further improvement. |

22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 3f 120y |
11st 2lb |
Won three in a row over hurdles in 2023/24 including here; yet to match that form over fences in 10 attempts, decent effort in 2m5f Fairyhouse mares handicap; didn't quite stay under forcing tactics at Punchestown latest behind a strong favourite in same ownership; steadily declining mark and looks nicely treated now. |
5/1 |

4th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 6f 35y |
11st 4lb |
Won three in a row over hurdles in 2023/24; yet to match that form over fences; was pulled-up last time but has been dropped 2lb and has a shout on her best chase form. |
5/1 |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 5f 150y |
11st 13lb |
Progressive when winning three consecutive hurdles races in 2023/2024, one of them at this venue; yet to shine over fences, but well supported into 7-2 joint favourite here last time when a 4.5l fourth; all wins over hurdles came at 2m. |

Has won over hurdles and fences at Kilbeggan; was a solid second at Down Royal but made a bad mistake there last time and ran below form; has to rebound after just four days. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |
10st 11lb |
Mare likes good ground and has won over hurdles and fences at Kilbeggan; chase win was off 107 last summer and stuck to her guns when second over C&D in lower-grade contest last time. |
3/1 |

2nd 1 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 50y |

A win apiece over hurdles and fences, both at Kilbeggan on good ground; soundly beaten since his last win in August; this better ground will suit her but others make more appeal. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 30y |
10st 2lb |
Decent NH mare, winning a bumper and three times over hurdles at up to 3m; recent chase form not quite at same level but useful; previous two Flat runs include decent fourth in 1m7f Leopardstown amateur maiden last summer; would probably appreciate a stiffer test. |
10/1 |

3rd 12 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 70y |
11st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner with some excellent efforts in competitive handicaps; second behind Perceval Legallois at DRF last season off 133; ran to a good level on chase debut over C&D a year ago; failed to repeat that until last month's Cork second, confirming winning potential |

26th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 76y |

Hurdle winner but has been well beaten over hurdles/fences of late and isn't easy to fancy until showing more spark; first-time blinkers might help. |
