Yet to make any significant further progress since her winning handicap debut in March 2022 but ran well in defeat at Kelso (2m2f, good) last month, after a break, and is still quite lightly raced; tries a new trip here; good chance. |

Won a couple of 2m4f chases for Jackie Stephen; sound run when 2l second at Catterick in November (3m1f, good) but disappointing since; plenty to prove now. |

33-1 runner-up to I See The Sea over C&D in November; however, two lesser performances have followed and this 11yo needs to get back on track. |

Well beaten on both starts for this stable in the autumn (2m4f/2m5f) and not seen again since; back up in trip with cheekpieces refitted today; 3lb wrong; needs to prove some ability remains. |

Six-time winner in Britain and gained her first Irish win in game fashion over 2m4f at this venue in January 2024 on her third and final start for Marie Harding; at the veteran stage now but made a promising reappearance under Joanna Walton (aboard for all seven wins) over 2m at Naas recently; each-way prospects. |
