Form & Verdict
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.

Made up plenty of ground to lead close home at Galway festival (1m4f, yielding; same race she won the year before) on penultimate start but was herself pipped by a fast finisher; won starts either side, latest by a head off the same mark at Sligo (10.5f) four days later; this is a very different track but she has to be considered with her mark virtually unchanged.

J: Rory Cleary

Four-time winner landed this race last season off 72; was running off that mark when winning at Roscommon on latest (10.5f, good); 6lb rise makes things tougher but she's got a nice low draw, ground is fine and should be in the mix again.

Gained third career win at Down Royal in June, bolting up over a similar trip to this; hit with a 14lb rise for that; struggled over 1m4f in a premier handicap at Galway last week, bringing a consistent sequence to an end; this trip is closer to her optimum.

Gained third career win at Down Royal in June, bolting up; hit with a 14lb rise for that; struggled over 1m4f in a premier handicap at Galway; second in a five-runner contest at Sligo; seems best at around 1m2f; may lack the pace for a race like this.

Gained third career win on latest at Down Royal (10.5f, soft), bolting up by 6.5l; handicapper took a dim view, hiking her up 14lb; this longer trip is fine, as is quicker ground, but a big career best will be needed to follow up in this tougher race; drawn wide.
