Western Princess
WESTERN PRINCESS hasn't looked entirely straightforward by any means but could well be the type to take off in handicaps for her top yard with a recent run under her belt and earns the vote. Mo Ghille Mar scored in good style at Wexford and is feared for a yard displaying better signs. Cool Summer and Mollys Star complete the shortlist.

Useful handicapper on the Flat for Mrs J. Harrington and well served by sharp nature of the track when opening her hurdles account at Wexford (17f) 16 days ago. Still plenty keen enough then but she was well on top at the finish. Possibilities again for yard who look to be turning the corner.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWexford2m 1fGood to YieldingHurdle1/13Bellewstown2m 1f 30yYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle6/10Warwick2mGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle13/13Punchestown2m 35ySoft to HeavyHurdle6/9Tramore2m 5fSoft (Heavy in Places)Hurdle10/13- 6Western PrincessJ: B.

Not straightforward but showed definite signs of ability on 2 of her first 3 starts over hurdles last spring. Pulled hard and looked set for a midfield finish when falling last on return from 12 months off at Ballinrobe recently but no surprise where she to take a big step forward on handicap bow.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBallinrobe2m 13yGood (Good to Yielding in places)HurdleF/15Ballinrobe2m 57yGoodHurdle5/14Wexford2m 4fGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle3/14Killarney2m 1fGood (Good To Yielding In Places)Hurdle8/16Fairyhouse2m 30yHeavy (Soft to Heavy in places)Bumper9/9- 3Inchiquin StarJ: Alan O'SullivanT: Terence O'Brien, IrelandU/8947-Age 77/113/2

Better effort when fourth of 14 in handicap at Wexford (2m) in October but failed to build on that when seventh at Cork the following month. Absent/changed yards since and market can prove a useful guide.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCork1m 7f 200yYielding to SoftHurdle7/11Wexford2m 100yYieldingHurdle4/14Clonmel2m 4f 35yYieldingHurdle9/11Clonmel2m 144ySoftFlat6/12Wexford2m 180yGood to YieldingHurdle8/10- 7Mollys StarJ: Patrick Michael O'BrienT: P.

Well held in mares maiden hurdles/bumper first 3 starts but settled better equipped with a hood and advanced her form a little when seventh of 19 in a Down Royal maiden (17.4f) 4 weeks ago.

Hasn't kicked on from her hurdle debut third at Roscommon but looks on a fair opening mark if she can recapture that form with booking of O'Keeffe catching the eye.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosTramore2mSoft (Yielding to Soft in places)Hurdle6/12Punchestown1m 7f 187yHeavyHurdle14/21Thurles1m 7f 172yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Hurdle8/16Roscommon1m 7f 110yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Hurdle3/15Tramore2m 50yGood to YieldingBumper7/10- 8Patty O'farrellJ: Danny GilliganT: Peter Maher, Ireland3P0679-Age 89/1

Landed this race from a 4 lb lower mark 12 months ago but she's essentially been disappointing since, running poorly at Bellewstown (17f) on her most recent outing 44 days ago.

Surpassed bumper form at the first time of asking over hurdles when successful at Downpatrick in July. Development has stalled in handicap company since, though, offering little after 5 months off at Fairyhouse in April.

No impact in bumpers/maiden hurdles but type her yard does well with in handicaps, so noteworthy if the market spoke in her favour.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosPunchestown2mGood to YieldingHurdle5/16Down Royal2m 1f 88yGoodHurdle15/19Tramore2mSoft (Yielding to Soft in places)Hurdle8/12Tramore2m 50yGood to YieldingBumper9/10Cork2m 60yGoodBumper12/15- 5Shannon BankJ: S.

Still to taste success but produced best effort to date in this sphere when second of 13 in handicap at Killarney in October. Ended time with Gavin Cromwell on a below-par note but entitled to strip fitter for last month's stable/chase debut effort.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWexford2mGood to YieldingChase7/12Sligo2m 1f 112yGood to Yielding (Yielding in places)Hurdlepu/13Killarney2m 1fYieldingHurdle2/13Galway2m 6f 97yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Hurdle5/18Sligo2m 1f 111yGoodHurdle4/9- 4Chosen ShantJ: Phillip EnrightT: Aengus King, Ireland0556-74Age 1022/122/120/1

Went off the boil following a brace of hurdle wins at Wexford last summer and her recent exploits haven't been all that encouraging, albeit out of her depth on latest outing over fences.
