In-form filly arrives in search of a hat-trick after knuckling down to win claimers at Bellewstown (1m, good) and Killarney (1m, good); this longer trip is a query, but should be on the premises again if she stays (stamina in pedigree but ran poorly over 10.5f before).

Maiden has run some decent races in defeat this season, including when a close second off 63 in a Down Royal handicap (7f, soft) two weeks ago; effective on good ground so dangerous to dismiss on first try in claiming company but needs to rebound from below par Fairyhouse run on Wednesday.
