In fine form over hurdles this year (won over 3m here in May) and very encouraging start to chasing career when beaten a neck behind Rue Taylor here on latest; nudged up 4lb but likely to be bang there again. |

Got off the mark in a Gowran handicap over 2m last October and some decent runs in defeat after; a lesser effort when last seen over 2m7f and this trip is a question on return. |

Won well at Gowran 11 days ago in the inaugural race in this series; 10lb rise is not unreasonable; potentially a filly who could continue on the upgrade; room for improvement in her jumping. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 116y |
11st 1lb |
Still searching for a first win but had some good bumper form early on and hasn't done a lot wrong over hurdles; went close in 2m7f maiden in April and solid third over 3m at Wexford when favourite for handicap debut; should be thereabouts with 7lb claimer back on. |

16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Maiden showed plenty of promise in bumpers and has run some fine races over hurdles, the best of which when a close second over 2m7f at Cork; not as good over 2m4f last time but the step back up in trip can help on handicap debut; chance. |
4/1 |

2nd 7 |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y |
11st 4lb |
Useful bumper form; rated 110 after four spins over hurdles, his best effort coming on latest at Cork (2m7f, yielding) when a neck second of 13; likely to make a bold bid dropped back in trip for his local yard. |

Chase debutante; 1-8 over hurdles and rated 98; bred to make a chaser and trip and ground should be fine for her here; respectable run over hurdles at Wexford latest (3m, gd-yld); tongue tie goes on; place claims. |

Built on three promising runs in maiden hurdles when winning a 2m4f Thurles contest last March (good to yielding) under a positive ride; appeared not to stay 3m here the following month on handicap debut; down in trip now after a 2m5f Tramore run in November. |

Both wins have been at around 2m5f, including Kilbeggan beginners' chase last year; just okay run on latest in Wexford handicap hurdle over this trip in May; stamina remains a possible issue. |
