Brighterdaysahead
This will be the first time that top-notch mares BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD and Lossiemouth lock horns and while the latter is a worthy favourite, Brighterdaysahead was mightily impressive when winning this 12 months ago and, at the forecast prices, she is the more appealing of the two. The selection was well below her best at the Cheltenham and Punchestown spring festivals but, like Lossiemouth, her record has very few blemishes and she goes very well fresh. Anzadam is best of the rest.

Very smart hurdler. C&D winner. Career best when winning 4-runner Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, soft, 1/5) 37 days ago by 19 lengths from Glen Kiln, unchallenged. Record now stands at 12 wins from 14 completed starts and she is very much the one to beat.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosPunchestown2m 160ySoft to HeavyHurdle1/4Aintree2m 4fGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle1/6Cheltenham2m 3f 200yGood to SoftHurdle1/10Leopardstown2mSoftHurdleF/5Kempton Park2mGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/4- 7BrighterdaysaheadJ: J.

Very smart hurdler. Below form 9 lengths third of 6 to Jade De Grugy in Mares Champion Hurdle at Punchestown (20.5f, good to soft, 6/4) when last seen 8 months ago. Record when fresh is very good and she won this race in fine style 12 months ago.

Smart hurdler. 11/4, 1½ lengths second of 5 to Golden Ace in Fighting Fifth Hurdle at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Lossiemouth is clearly the stable first-string, but this unexposed 5-y-o is respected nonetheless.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle2m 190yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle2/5Naas1m 7f 190ySoft to HeavyHurdle1/3Fairyhouse2mYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle1/7Compiegne2m 198ySoftHurdle1/5Bordeaux2m 89yVery softHurdle1/7- 5IrancyJ: M.

Smart hurdler. 1 win from 2 runs this season. 5/1, 34¾ lengths last of 4 to Lossiemouth in Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) 37 days ago. That was a disappointing effort given the promise of his novice campaign and he clearly has work to do.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosPunchestown2m 160ySoft to HeavyHurdle4/4Punchestown2m 149yYieldingHurdle1/6Fairyhouse2mGood to YieldingHurdle1/8Cheltenham2m 87yGood to SoftHurdle7/11Punchestown1m 7f 110yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle1/18- 2Casheldale LadJ: Jordan Colin GainfordT: Gordon Elliott, Ireland2-1311FAge 525/125/122/1

Smart hurdler. 3 wins from 5 runs this season. Fell in Hatton's Grace Hurdle (10/1) at Fairyhouse (20f, soft) 29 days ago, going with enthusiasm.

Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 11/4 and hood on for 1st time in this code, 18¼ lengths tenth of 11 to Chally Chute in listed race at Roscommon (12.1f, good to soft). Switches from Flat to hurdles and needs to raise his game.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosRoscommon1m 4f 17yYieldingFlat10/11Punchestown2mYieldingHurdle3/12Cheltenham2m 179yGood to SoftHurdle6/17Leopardstown2mSoftHurdle1/8Leopardstown2mYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle1/10- 6Winter FogJ: B.

Useful hurdler. C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 30¾ lengths sixth of 8 to Wodhooh in Howden Ascot Hurdle (28/1) at Ascot (19.3f, good to soft) 37 days ago. This 11-y-o is seemingly the least fancied of the Willie Mullins-trained quartet.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAscot2m 3f 63yGood to SoftHurdle6/8Wetherby3m 26yGoodHurdle4/5Newmarket (rowley)2m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat9/19Tramore2mYieldingFlat1/10Galway2m 11yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle11/19- 3Futurum RegemJ: E.
