OR: 74

Form & Verdict
Shaped like 1m would suit when third over 7f on nursery debut but didn't improve for it when just over a length behind Tatum at Naas; had wide trip there and headgear quickly dispensed with but might still struggle to reverse the form.

T: Noel Meade

Placed at two before missing 3yo season; two wins here last year, including corresponding contest (Ob La Di well-held fourth); not seen after that until fair comeback over 1m2f here in May, and 2m1f may have stretched her at Limerick; only 4lb higher than last year; likes it good, but scratched because of quick ground last time.
