Lightly-raced mare was a very easy maiden winner last year and has run creditably in defeat in decent company since, including at this track; was battling for the places in a Grade 1 when falling at Fairyhouse in April; can run well.

Roscommon maiden hurdle winner last August was beaten 1.75l by Hauteriere over 2m5f at Punchestown last time; needs further improvement to come out on top here.

Roscommon maiden win last summer came on soft and stepped up a level in performance on latest in finishing close third to Hautriere in 2m5f Punchestown mares Listed last month, staying on well at the finish after being a bit outpaced after two out; slightly longer trip should play to her strengths and could improve more than most for the step up in trip.

Roscommon maiden hurdle winner last summer; decent fourth to stable companion Magical Zoe in a Grade 3 at Down Royal in November; unseated in one of the big Leopardstown handicap hurdles two weeks ago; still unexposed and could be a factor.
