Half-sister to several French winner, notably high-class hurdler/chaser up to 3m4f Yala Enki; returned from lengthy absence to finish decent second in 2m6f Limerick mares' maiden hurdle in April (soft) and earlier this month chased all-the-way winner for much of the way in 2m2f Downpatrick mares bumper on good ground; return to 2m4f to suit and should go well.

Started 11/4 but tailed odd in a bumper on debut in 2024; found to be lame afterwards; second in a 2m5f Limerick maiden hurdle on return from 471 days away; quicker ground today and down in trip but a repeat of that will make her a big player back in this sphere.
