Today, July 17, 2025Hurdle2m4fGood

A trappy contest. 2024 winner REDWOOD QUEEN made the headlines when parting with her jockey at the final hurdle at Wexford in May, having been all set to make it 5 wins from her last 7 hurdle starts. She makes plenty of appeal on these terms on debut for a good yard and can follow up last year's success. Ad Caelum is in top form and is feared most stepping back up in trip, with the improving Emily Love next best ahead of Belle the Lioness, who cannot be ruled out back over hurdles.

    Bred to be useful and was green when winning a mares maiden hurdle at Wexford on debut.

Back down in distance with cheekpieces on first time and remains capable of better.

    Verdict
    Won this race easily (off 1 lb lower) in 2024. Set to make it 5 wins from last 7 starts when parting company with her jockey at the last in a Wexford claimer in May, having been notably easy to back. Since left Charles Byrnes and makes plenty of appeal on these terms for new yard.

    All out to hold on at this course over 3m in May. Upsides and going best when unseated at the back here (24.4f) in June and ran well when second over a much shorter trip at this track 6 days ago, doing best of those held up. In the best form of her career and cannot be dismissed.

    Left bumper form behind when easily taking a well-run 14-runner novice hurdle at Wexford (20f, good to soft, 10/3) on debut in this sphere 61 days ago, made most of the running. Tougher opposition here but entitled to build on that run.

    Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles and proved her stamina for this sort of trip when off the mark at the third time of asking over fences, winning 13-runner novice chase at Tipperary (19.7f), deserving extra credit have lost momentum at last. She's no back number returning to hurdles.
