Form & Verdict
Solid form in handicaps for John O'Donoghue; good efforts in handicaps at the Curragh (1m, soft to heavy) and at this course (1m2f, yielding to soft; had Couer d'Or behind) on first two runs for this stable; outclassed in Listed grade at Gowran but a big player if the ground deteriorates.

Solid form in handicaps for John O'Donoghue; solid efforts in handicaps at the Curragh (1m, sft-hvy) and Leopardstown (1m2f, yld-sft) on first two runs for this stable; up against it on the figures here but if there's heavy rain she could sneak into the money.

Likes soft ground and won off 9lb lower on her final start for John O'Donoghue at Navan (1m2f, soft) last April; holds a leading chance now after a good effort on seasonal/stable debut over 1m at the Curragh; met trouble in running, and her performance can be upgraded.
