Form & Verdict
Far from disgraced in a strong 7f fillies' maiden here in November 2023; denied a clear run when 6l fifth of 11 in Bellewstown handicap (1m4f, yielding) in October; beaten out of sight on heavy at Galway when last seen but a return to a sounder surface should suit.

Won a 1m fillies' maiden at Dundalk in January; best turf run came when second in a middle-distance handicap at Roscommon in May; probably more effective over a bit further than this.

Has placed five times from eight starts, including twice in maidens over C&D; failed to see out 10.5f here latest but the drop back to 1m will suit; sets a high bar here and should go close.

Went close for Henry de Bromhead and was only beaten 2l in a fillies' maiden at Killarney last month when coming on from her yard debut; some speed in her pedigree but a drop right back to the minimum could be too sharp; engaged at Sligo, Wednesday.

Wasn't disgraced in fifth when sent off a 50-1 chance on her debut in 6f maiden here; never involved next time in 7f maiden; this is a much easier assignment, though.

Close up in a 1m AW maiden before finishing well behind in a claimer at Gowran; that was a worrying effort but on that best run this mark doesn't look impossible.

Form & Verdict
Siyouni filly cost 75,000gns as a yearling and 110,000euros as a breeze-up purchase; she made little impression in seventh when heavily backed (sent off favourite) for her belated debut here over 7f; the runner-up has won since and she's well worth another chance in a weak contest.
