Developed into a very capable juvenile hurdler last season, Grade 2 runner-up and two wins, including a Listed success at the Punchestown festival, beating older rivals; interesting off this mark, if she can translate her improvement to the Flat; finished sixth in this race 12 months ago.

Took well to hurdles, winning at Ballinrobe and Listowel last year before good second at Punchestown in October; fair Flat form over shorter trips than today's so stamina concerns on comeback run.

Useful juvenile hurdler last season reappeared from six months' absence when well-backed favourite on flat handicap debut at Galway festival, not quite getting home over 2m1f, having led home turn, finishing a good third of 19; 3lb higher but likely major player back slightly in trip.

Third reserve; Fairyhouse 3yo maiden hurdle winner in December safely held in Grade 2 at Leopardstown later in month; best work at the finish on all three flat maiden runs so potential improver upped in trip here on handicap debut.
