Maiden knocking on the door on AW last year and again on turf this summer, most recently making much of running over this trip at Clonmel five days ago when beaten 0.75l; quick return off same mark and seems sure to go close with rider now claiming 7lb although wide draw not ideal.

The breakthrough win had been coming and did it decisively at Punchestown (1m1f, good to yielding) despite a wide draw; fine on soft ground as well but she's gone up 8lb and they claimed 7lb last time, so has more on her plate off this mark.
