Emily Love

11st 3lb

J: Kevin Sexton

T: Gordon Elliott

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.

Second runner for yard; dual hurdle winner is rated 123 in that sphere; fine efforts in both chase starts including when just behind stablemate Future Prospect at Wexford last time; her previous Killarney run was over 2m5f so this trip should be fine; big player.

Second runner for yard; bumper and dual hurdle winner wasn't at her best on last two 2025 hurdle runs; returned from an absence with a sound chasing debut at Killarney in May; should be better for that and looks a big player.

Rated 105 over hurdles but performed above that level when winning on chase debut at Wexford, jumping well; however, this is much tougher and a place looks the best she can do.

Back to form over hurdles in recent months, but she's a long way inferior to several of these in that sphere and it's late in the day to be going chasing; best watched.

J: Mike O’Connor

Was a point and bumper winner last year; seemed to get stuck in heavy ground at Punchestown on her second hurdle start in January; much better when winning at Down Royal last time over 2m4f; should go well on chase debut.

Point (beating Cool Native) and bumper winner was third in a C&D maiden hurdle in December but was a poor third at Punchestown (hvy) since; this better ground should help her bounce back and is a big player if doing so even with an 8lb penalty.

Won over hurdles when trained in France on very soft; 66-1 and beaten 35l on debut for this stable in a Limerick Grade 3 novice hurdle; this more realistic and bred to make a chaser but best watched unless the market speaks.

Bagged back-to-back mares' handicap hurdles in January/March at Down Royal and Leopardstown at 2m1f/2m3f on soft ground; form has dipped in three runs since, including when beaten 18.5l at Galway last time (2m1f, good); cheekpieces return and the tongue tie is new; one of the top rated over hurdles for this chasing bow but needs to bring her best.

Form figures of 1521 on ground with good in the description, the fifth coming in a listed mares' hurdle at Haydock; floundered on heavy in a Gowran Grade 3 on latest but return to better ground a huge plus; should go well.
