Form & Verdict
Sixth foal; half-sister to Nostringsattached, winner of three races at up to 1m2f; dam was a versatile sort who won eight races, half-sister to useful Flat hurdle winner Minsk; of some interest on pedigree but likely to find a few of her younger rivals too good.

Placed at two; promising seasonal return when second in 1m2f Navan fillies' maiden in June; second to an odds-on shot over an extended at Killarney following month; tame effort over a shorter trip in first-time cheekpieces at Punchestown (form boosted); handled soft ground at Killarney, so conditions and trip may suit.

Promising seasonal return when second in 1m2f Navan fillies maiden in June (good) and posted similar RPR when second to an odds-on shot over 1m4f at Killarney following month, having forced it on softer ground; this looks a weaker race and big showing expected; cheekpieces tried.

Showed ability in Irish maidens for Noel Meade but yet to get going in two starts for this yard, latterly in a hood (now removed) at Thirsk last month; this is just her third handicap but it's a tough one in which to stage a revival.

Ran in five maidens in Ireland for Noel Meade, finishing second on the final occasion (1m4f, heavy); has also shown promise on good ground; she could improve for last month's stable/seasonal debut at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) but was soundly beaten and others have more pressing claims; a hood goes on.

Two Oaks entries don't look significant given her achievements to date; on the plus side, her best run was when fourth on good ground at Thurles and last two defeats have come in the mud, the latest on handicap debut (1m4f); stable has won two of the last four runnings of this.
