Was 9-4 when making an impressive winning debut over this trip at Punchestown last month; runner-up from that race went close in a C&D maiden last week; well bred sort whose sister was an AW winner; should be firmly in the mix with the standard amount of improvement from first run to second.

No real excuses when a beaten favourite at Punchestown, but the winner could well turn out to be well above the norm; 86-rated filly with the form in the book to bag one of these and has another strong chance of hitting the bulls-eye here.
