9/1
9/2, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Stepping back in the right direction but step back up in trip isn't an obvious move.

8/1
Career best when winning 15-runner novice hurdle at Roscommon (15.5f, good to soft, 4/1) 22 days ago, driven clear. Significantly back up in trip and she's a player from current mark on that evidence.

17:55 Bellewstown - 27 August 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

This looks a reasonable race for the grade with MISS GITANA fancied to come good for the first time over hurdles with his Flat profile strongly suggesting this step up in trip will unlock more. Laurie Blue, Mickey Cohen and Sydney Cruiser are just a trio of potential threats.
