Bumper winner last autumn got off the mark over hurdles in a Fairyhouse maiden last time on fourth start in this sphere; the cheekpieces worn then are retained but she has to do more in this grade.

Debut bumper winner at Galway last October; placed in all three maiden hurdles, including twice at this track (2m-2m2f); down in trip again after finishing second to a Gordon Elliott-trained odds-on chance over 2m5f at Leopardstown; cheekpieces and tongue-tie fitted now; capable of getting in the mix.

Debut bumper winner at Galway has run well in two Fairyhouse maiden hurdles since (2m-2m2f); this step up in trip could suit and is likely to be closely involved.

Well-related mare, out of a sister to Irish National winner Niche Market; ran a bit green but stuck to her task gamely when making winning debut in Galway bumper in October and solid start to hurdling career when albeit a remote third to Bambino Fever here over 2m2f last month, having got outpaced at crucial stage; drop back in trip not ideal but ground makes this more of a stamina test.

Well-related mare; out of a useful winning sister to Irish Grand National winner Niche Market; ran a bit green but stuck to her task gamely when making a winning debut in a bumper at Galway in October; unlikely to have any problem with the trip.
