Form & Verdict

Has had eight runs (seven on turf) and is rated 76; wasn't beaten far in a Curragh Group 3 last summer; after a couple of below par efforts to start this season, got back on track with a 2l fourth in a Dundalk maiden on latest; pulled up sole previous start on soft so rain would be a concern.

Form & Verdict

Rated 73 after four outings, the best of which was a 0.5l second on debut at the Curragh (7f, gd-yld) behind subsequent Oaks third Sugar Island; a repeat of that would give her a big chance but needs to rebound from a poor handicap run at the Curragh when last seen in May; tongue tie goes on.
