Form & Verdict
A bit fortunate to get off the mark by a head at the fifth attempt over hurdles in 2m4f Sligo maiden latest (good), benefitting from a late mistake by the eventual runner-up; rated 109 and carries 7lb penalty in this better race; should stay this longer trip but needs more.

1-11 over hurdles and rated 100; tailed off in all three previous starts over fences and similar story last two starts in novice hurdles; lacks a recent run and others appeal more.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Sent off at 7-2 for debut in a 20.5f Wexford mares' maiden hurdle (yielding) and stayed on strongly to score by 2.5l; steps up markedly in trip now and this a better race but she's unexposed and can't be discounted for top yard.

Off the mark on debut at Wexford and better form in defeat since with a neck defeat in three-runner novice at Kilbeggan before a fall when still involved at Killarney; 2m1f too short at Bellewstown last time and one to be interested in stepping back up to this sort of distance; unexposed.

Won a 2m4f Wexford maiden on debut and was just denied over 3m in a Kilbeggan novice; in contention when falling three out in a 2m4f Killarney event won by shorter-priced stablemate Emily Love; dropped in trip now, could be vulnerable.

Won a Wexford maiden over this trip on debut and was just denied over 3m in a Kilbeggan novice since; likely to be still improving and cheekpieces are added dropped back in trip; Jack Kennedy rides but probably not much between her and stablemate Emily Love.
