Form & Verdict
Fair maiden for David Loughnane; travelled best but couldn't sustain her effort when third over C&D on her stable debut last month (behind Alainn Tu); less good back here last time when she didn't look straightforward; Billy Loughnane takes off a useful 3lb but others appeal more.

Form & Verdict
Promise over C&D on her second start before performing with credit in the face of a stiff task in the Super Sprint last July; Ripon run in August promised better and a low-key return to action on soft ground can probably be excused; there are risks attached now tried in cheekpieces but she's down in the weights and could go well.

Ran to a modest level for Kevin Ryan as a 2yo but she was among the market leaders for her first two runs; has since moved to a new yard (same owners) and this is much weaker than the Class 2 nursery she contested when last in action; interesting to see if the money comes for her again.
