Has presumably not been the easiest to train given she finished third on her only start in Irish points back in 2022, but nonetheless, made a successful hurdling debut in 12-runner maiden at Worcester (20f) in September, enterprisingly ridden. Should be competitive under a penalty.
|
Showed a bit on sole bumper start at Lingfield in 2021/22 but absent since. Upped markedly in trip for belated hurdle debut.
|
Failed to complete all 3 starts in points and was pulled up on Leicester hurdling debut on sole outing for Laura Horsfall 15 months ago. Hooded for 1st time.
|
Bumper winner who is proving consistent over hurdles, again running well when second in 7-runner handicap at this course (25.8f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Sets the standard.
|
Won sole start in point bumpers but sent off at long odds and offered little tried in a proper one at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) in January and again showed nothing when pulled up on Taunton hurdle debut since.
|
Dam 2m-3m hurdle/chase winner. Minor promise only in a pair of bumpers this winter but in good hands and jumping likely to see her in a better light, especially over this longer trip.
|
Modest form in a pair of Flat outings for Amy Murphy and bettered hurdling debut form when winning a notably weak maiden at Fakenham (2m) 24 days ago, well on top finish. Significantly up in trip and will likely prove vulnerable in her follow-up bid.

Forecasts
Lahinch Wave (1/1), Miss Goldfire (11/8), Abbey Law (8/1), Neon Madonna (16/1), Mistletoe (125/1), Dandylyon (150/1), Dusky Spyglass (200/1)
MISS GOLDFIRE has been running consistently well and this looks a good oopportunity for her to finally shed maiden status over hurdles. Lahinch Wave had the benefit of an enterprising ride when making a winning Rules debut at Worcester in September but should be competitive under a penalty, with the selection's stablemate Neon Madonna likely to show more now moving up in trip on hurdle bow.
- Miss Goldfire11/8
- Lahinch Wave1/1
- Neon Madonna16/1
