Donie Sheahan Memorial Irish EBF Mares Beginners Chase

Lightly-raced hurdler who won a 9-runner mares’ maiden hurdle at Killarney (22.4f, good to soft) in 2025/26. Well held on handicap debut next time, but both her background as a winning pointer and her size suggest she could come into her own as a chaser. Worth a market check.

Fairly useful hurdler that looks to be being brought along gradually as a chaser, fifth of 9 to Royal Hollow in maiden at Clonmel last time.

Successful twice on the level prior to landing a maiden hurdle at Cork in 2025/26 and shaped well despite being left with too much to do when 17 lengths second of 12 to Supersundae in maiden at Kilbeggan last month. She's entitled to improve so is of serious interest.

Fairly useful hurdler who shaped with promise on the switch to chasing last season, but finished the campaign badly out of sorts, including back over hurdles. Plenty to prove at present.

Prolific novice hurdler last season, winning 5 times, including a minor event at Far Hills in the USA in October. Absent since, but a winning point background suggests she may prove just as effective sent chasing.

Won handicap hurdle at Sligo in 2025/26 and posted best effort since when fifth of 10 to Fiver Friday in mares event at Bellewstown last month, though she'll need to improve significantly if she's to make a successful chasing debut.

Created a good impression when winning first 2 starts over hurdles, namely mares maiden at Listowel and novice at Roscommon. Has failed to see her race out both outings since, however and has questions to answer now significantly upped in trip on chasing debut.

Point and bumper winner that belatedly confirmed the promise of hurdling debut when winning mares maiden at Down Royal last month by 7½ lengths from Forever And A Day. Interesting chasing recruit.

Third foal, dam fairly useful hurdle winner around 2m (stayed 19f)). Last of 6 finishers completed start in points, pulled up last time (Mar 29). Wears cheekpieces.

Fairly useful hurdler who hasn't gone without promise in a handful of starts over fences but was brought down in mares maiden at Thurles last time. Not without claims if matching the pick of her hurdling form.
