7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 186y |
11st 3lb |
Likes a sound surface and was prolific over hurdles (rated 129) last year, winning five times at up to 2m4f, including a fast-ground victory in America; was running a good race when coming down on chasing debut; benefitted from fall of odds-on favourite when winning over 2m at Tramore, not having much to spare over 112-rated rival. |

5-9 over hurdles and earned a handicap mark of 129; wouldn't have won but was running well when coming down two out on chase debut at Killarney; much respected. |

11st 7lb |
One of her five hurdle wins came here over 2m4f last year; ended her campaign with a win in a valuable mares' hurdle at Far Hills in USA and is rated 129 in that sphere; has won when fresh and is a big player if ready after the break. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |
11st 10lb |
Bumper and hurdles winner has been disappointing overall over fences and in one hurdle run this year, except for when second of six over fences at Tramore (2m, good) on penultimate; others are more appealing. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Useful hurdler with placed form in Listed and Graded company as a novice; much improved on fourth chase start at Tramore when close second, around 2l in front of Pampar Lady in race in which Future Prospect departed two out; not sure to appreciate this extra half-mile. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |

Struggled in three runs over fences before another heavy defeat back over hurdles; she was smart in 2024 but now has much to prove. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Rattled up a hat-trick over hurdles last summer, at up to 2m3f; after seven months off, ran well on chase debut at Tramore, upsides Future Prospect when that one departed two out, then just got tired and finished behind Beauforts Storm; jumping was a bit novicey then, so should improve for the experience and the run. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |

Raised her game markedly last season over hurdles, winning three times to earn a mark of 118; trip/ground ideal for this first crack at chasing. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |
11st 7lb |
One of two for the yard; bumper/dual winning hurdler; hasn't been at her best since returning from a year off and one or two others appeal more. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
One of two for trainer; bumper/dual winning hurdler; returned from almost a year off when well beaten on Flat in February; more promise in 10l fifth over hurdles at Navan (2m, soft); didn't build on that at Bellewstown last time. |
18/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 1f 30y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper and dual winning hurdler; came back from almost a year off the track when well beaten in a 1m4f maiden at Dundalk in February; more promise in her 10l fifth of 12 at Navan last month (2m, soft); more needed with cheekpieces added to the tongue tie. |

Won a maiden over hurdles but not in the same league as her rivals in that discipline; limited appeal on chase debut. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Sole win came in 2m Clonmel mares' maiden in 2024; flashes of form last year, placed at Wexford and prospects when falling two out at Clonmel; not a bad run at Limerick after a winter break. |

11st 5lb |
Sole win came in 2m Clonmel mares' maiden in 2024; just bits and pieces of form last year, placed at Wexford and prospects when falling two out at Clonmel; absent since September and likely best watched on ground plenty soft for her. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Point winner was useful in bumpers and over hurdles; can be keen and was so when without hood for chase debut at Tramore; 4-9 fav then, raced prominently and jumped well in the main, but went left at a few fences and looked vulnerable when taking a heavy fall two out; not crying out for this extra half-mile, but reapplied hood should help. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 130y |
11st 7lb |
Can race freely but she was smart in bumpers and wasn't beaten far in a Listed hurdle at Punchestown last time (2m, yielding); 1-1 in points and brings significant potential to chase career. |
6/4 |

3rd 5 |
30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 4lb |
Smart bumper winner but had a tendency to race keenly; got off the mark over hurdles on debut at Naas but was pulled-up in the Mares' novice at Cheltenham; a better effort in a Fairyhouse Mares' Grade 1 since over 2m4f and a repeat back to this trip would see her go well. |
