Remote third at Wexford her best finishing position; can be keen and described as 'a very difficult ride' when connections were called in by the stewards after she was fifth at Ballinrobe; after a year's absence, ran in the corresponding race at Ballinrobe last week, keen again and had weakened out of it when falling at the last; readily opposed on handicap debut.
