Debut Curragh run was low-key but much better at Naas (6f, good) last August, showing early speed and beaten just 4l into fifth of 12; ended the campaign with a promising 5f AW effort, second to an odd-on chance; could go close if fit and ready for return.

Ran twice for Paddy Twomey at two; runner-up in two of her three handicap starts, notably behind the ultra-progressive Meriden at the Curragh in June; last month's Navan run can be upgraded slightly since she became unbalanced after briefly hitting the front; closely matched with Cashel Blue, both could cope with the winner Another Nice'Day on these terms.

Ran twice for Paddy Twomey at two; made a good start for Gillian Scott when fourth of 12 in a C&D maiden in March, running on well in the closing stages; improved from handicap debut when second to an in-form rival here last time; can win a handicap off current mark, prospects of landing a maiden are slim.
