Sister to very smart hurdler Strong Leader. Bumper winner and she landed the odds in maiden at Southwell in December. Bettered that form when second of 11 in 21f novice at Wincanton following month but a bit disappointing in a deep handicap at Newbury. This is easier back in a novice,

Irish point winner at the second attempt in December 2024 and shaped with bags of promise when runner-up on Rules debut in a 21f maiden at Huntingdon in December. That race worked out well and while her effort at Warwick a month later was underwhelming, she retains potential.

Analyst's Verdict

This should develop into a match between LISNAMURRICAN and Strong Run, with the former expected to make the most of the 7 lb she receives from that rival and confirm the promise of her Huntingdon run at the second attempt.
