Beat Relevant Range in a 7f maiden here last year; best handicap run when returning here over 6f in January; unproven over the trip and others probably more likely.

Just got the better of Gurkha Girl when winning over this trip on the round course a week ago; off the same mark but is 2lb worse off with that rival, so there should be little between them today.

Below best since winning here last summer (7f, good) until much more encouraging third at Limerick in June (not clear run); tame enough in the finish at Roscommon since so bit to find now.
