Loads of good runs in defeat in maidens and handicaps on varying ground conditions from 5f-6f; excellent effort on turf return over this trip at Cork, just behind a subsequently Listed-placed runner; should go close.

Gained a fourth career win over C&D in April (sft-hvy); 9lb higher now after a very respectable run in Listed company here earlier this month; the forecast rain will help her but she'll need a big career best to score off this mark.

C&D winner in 2024 has added two wins at the Curragh since, including premier handicap in April; not as good twice since on faster ground but is only 1lb higher today and back on her favoured soft ground so a big chance.

0-5 on turf; best effort came when a 4.25l third of 7 in a Tipperary maiden for her former yard on her second start (5f, soft); hasn't repeated that since and was pulled up in a Clonmel maiden hurdle when last seen in March; new headgear combination needs to have a dramatic effect.
