Another that goes well here with pair of C&D wins this summer; beat Gangster Granny two runs back and now meets her on 7lb better terms (including claims); beaten 3l on latest visit. |

In excellent form and has won two of her last three, both over C&D; is now 17lb higher than when winning easily here in May and this is stronger than the race she won last time but clearly loves this place and in the mix again. |

Long-standing maiden has been running well over shorter trips this summer; closely matched with Jonny Carrol on Wexford 2m4f form three weeks ago, and went close over 3m a couple of years ago; new headgear combination |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 55y |

Straight into handicap hurdles after a short spell in points; runner-up over this trip in a class 5 at Perth being her best effort; might have had a little too much use made of her at Downpatrick last time; headgear used that day left on here. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |

Point-to-point winner; 0-14 over hurdles but loads of placed efforts to her name, including off 92 in a C&D handicap on penultimate; should go well but rated 95 and likely vulnerable to less exposed rivals; new headgear combination tried. |

Decent handicap form for new yard; second on stable debut at Sligo in May (2m6f, good), fading late; fourth at Downpatrick (2m6f, good to yielding) later that month; okay fourth at Sligo last time (2m5f, good); drops in trip now but more needed to get home in front. |

Off the mark over hurdles at Wexford on latest (3m, good), showing a willing attitude to score by a neck; 4lb rise for that seems fair but not sure this drop back in trip will suit. |

1st 13 |
23rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
10st 3lb |
Winless from 14 starts over hurdles but her best placing came over C&D last summer when second off 7lb higher; some promise in her 9l fourth at Sligo on penultimate; on the retreat when a faller at two out at Limerick last time but a positive effort all the same; chance. |

Runner-up in a 3m handicap at Wexford last summer (good); struggled after that, but her 9l fourth of 15 at Sligo (2m5f, good) last time was more promising; place chance if building on that. |

0-8 over hurdles but has ability and was a good second in a mares' maiden hurdle over C&D (good) on penultimate; not as good upped to 2m6f on latest; the drop back in trip is a plus here but rated 88 so probably place claims at best. |
