One of two for yard; two 6f wins last year, making all to score in a Curragh maiden (good) and a conditions race here (gd-yld); disappointed upped to 7f when last seen at York and loads to find on the figures on her first try at 5f, but interesting that Billy Lee seemingly prefers her to King Cuan.

Promising debut in May and she has made all in two of her three starts since, both at 6f (good and good to yielding); had put up a stout effort when attempting to hold on to her lead over 7f at Leopardstown in between and it's not yet certain which is her best trip.
