OR: —
Irish point winner on testing ground; second in a Listed bumper (winner impressed on recent hurdling debut) before finishing well held in a Grade 2 at Aintree; nicely on top in the finish on her hurdling debut at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) and could easily have what it takes to defy a penalty.

13th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 209y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Bought for £220,000 after winning Irish mares' point (3m, soft to heavy) last March and went close in Listed mares' bumper on rules debut at Huntingdon (2m, good) in December; that latest form is relatively weak for the grade but she's open to improvement if settling better; interesting. |

5 yo Mare
OR: —
Inferior bumper form to Alfie's Princess and was about 7l behind that rival on their hurdling debuts at Chepstow (2m3f, soft), though she looked a big threat until clouting two out; could be sharper this time and has a 7lb pull with the winner.

Finished just ahead of Kit's Coty in an Irish point; won a Chepstow bumper (soft) only narrowly but she idled late on and travelled like the best horse; now tongue tied and had a wind op; respected.

23rd Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 5 |

Second in an Irish point last spring; beaten favourite but still made promising rules debut when fourth of 11 at Uttoxeter (heavy) in December, and today's race looks much less competitive; good chance. |

31st Dec 2022 Good To Soft 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Twice raced in Irish points, better effort when runner-up latest; sold for 72,000gns later in May; bred to do well in bumpers but proved uncooperative (reluctant to line up; withdrawn) at Warwick last month on intended rules debut. |

Placed in all three Irish points last year and was bought for £60,000; was still moving well when hampered and unseating on the home turn in a 2m5f novice at Ludlow; clearly has plenty of ability.
