Irish Store Sales With Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Made all in a bumper for Micky Hammond and completed straightforward tasks when winning first 3 starts over hurdles in 2021/22. Lost her unbeaten record with a bit of a whimper on her return at Taunton in January and has had a breathing operation since.

Likeable mare who enhanced an excellent course record when scoring easily over C&D on Boxing Day. Fine runner-up efforts at Chepstow next 2 outings but found her run of good form coming to an abrupt halt at Fakenham last time. Bounce back needed.

Proved better than ever when recording a third success over hurdles at Southwell in June. Held in fifth when falling last at Uttoxeter next time and then suffered a tack problem at Hereford. Folded on most recent Flat outing, so returns to this code with a bit to prove.

Added to an excellent record at Taunton when getting off the mark for the season there in December. However, needs to bounce back from a couple of lesser efforts.

C&D winner who has been pretty disappointing in handicaps for Oliver Sherwood but lurks on a handy mark starting out for an up-and-coming yard. Tongue strap on for 1st time and market support would look interesting on first run since July.

C&D winner who bounced back to form when fourth at Fontwell in February and backed that up in a far better-quality contest when third at Chepstow (2m) last time. Well worth considering back against her own sex.
