Had been on a losing run of over 2.5 years before a short head victory at Gowran last time provided her fourth career turf win (1m, soft); runner-up hasn't done much for the form in the meantime; still on an attractive mark compared to her previous wins if continuing on an upward curve. |

Can be a threat when he gets his own way up front as seen at Naas last month and gave it another good go over extended 6f here behind Saturn Seven 24 days ago; up 2lb but there's not a lot of pace in this and he's one for the shortlist. |
