All five runs this season have been at Gowran, winning twice over 1m2f and not beaten fair into fourth in 1m4f Listed; didn't count back in trip on latest when visor tried (now replaced by usual cheekpieces); return to 1m4f may suit but stablemate Romzina may have stronger claims.

Won narrowly at Roscommon in June and went very close to repeating last year's success in a 1m4f Galway handicap; due to go up 3lb for finishing a neck second; holds an obvious chance, providing this does not come too soon; last year's second in this event came after the same four-day interval.
