Fairyhouse Race 1 - Wishing Everyone A Healthy 2025 Mares Hurdle

AURORA VEGA (1) could not follow up an impressive 17L maiden hurdle success at Cork during August when pulling up quickly at Wexford. Can see the best of her now returning from a break. Bred out of a championship winning mare and represents top connections. Leading contender. PASTORALE (6) has form behind a three-time G1 hurdle winner. Disappointed on seasonal comeback in a Listed Punchestown Mares Hurdle. Can be competitive down in class. MAGIC BOUM (3) is unbeaten in two career starts and was off the mark at Navan first-up over hurdles. Interesting MONGIBELLO (4) is worth a second look.

Last start finished fourth of 15 runners at Navan 4yo+ HDLE HCP on December 15 over 4023m, 11 len behind Glen Kiln with 70kg at $9. Before that finished seventh of 8 runners at this track in the G2 Royal Bond Novice Hurdle on December 1 over 3319m, 21 len behind Tounsivator carrying 68.5kg at $101. Definite winning chance. Right in the mix if anywhere near her best.
