Maiden winner (5f) here last season and standout run from limited campaign this year when strong-finishing second over 5f at the Curragh against some seasoned handicappers; excuses at same venue latest (slow to break, not clear run) so remains very much of interest.

Started the season slowly but back on song with a fine run here 6 days ago, running on well for a 1.25l second; same mark here and worth another go at 6f on the evidence of that last run; chance.

Has finished in the first three in her last six races on turf; narrowly denied in a 7f claimer at this venue in May; backed that up with third placings in a maiden at Bellewstown and a handicap at Naas; thoroughly deserved her win in a 7f claimer here last month; has joined Ian Donoghue and can continue to pay her way.
