Bumper winner placed in three maiden hurdles at 16.5f-2m6f on good and soft ground for Willie Mullins, including a 4.25l third here (16.5f, yielding) behind a now 128 rated chaser; market should reveal plenty on stable and handicap debut after a 306 day absence.

Form & Verdict
Highly creditable track debut when fourth in a mares maiden hurdle at Listowel two weeks ago and probably would have been closer but for a mistake at the last; should be a leading player on her bumper debut although rider bookings suggest that she is stable second choice.

Fair hurdler who likes to get on with things on the front end, collared late on in Downpatrick beginners' chase (19.5f, good) in August; jumped out to right when poor at Listowel next time and unseated rider two from home after leading for a long way in Punchestown Grade 3 latest; right-handed track will suit and dangerous if allowed to dictate back in trip.
