Form & Verdict
Tramore bumper winner last autumn (yielding) went close at Limerick nine days later; still involved when unseating late on hurdle bow at Fairyhouse in November but two runs this summer have been well below her best, mistakes at Killarney last time on softer ground; unproven over this far (grandam won Irish National) but remains a likely player if avoiding serious error.

Handicap debutante; first maiden hurdle run promising but recent showings well below that level and on the balance of her hurdles' form her opening mark doesn't look a gift.
