Form & Verdict

7f maiden winner at Dundalk in November; shaped like she needed a step up in trip when fourth in 7f Group 3 at Leopardstown on return; not a bad run against older fillies and mares in a 1m4f Group 3 since and this intermediate trip might help.

Form & Verdict

Solid steps forward in each run so far this year, landing a 7f Limerick maiden on her penultimate start before seemingly relishing a step up in trip when landing a valuable contest at Gowran earlier this month; possibly improved for quicker ground that day and sets the standard on form.

Form & Verdict

Low key debut last year but much better when winning on return at the Curragh with stablemate Mother Nature runner-up; that is form that took a knock over the weekend with the third running below par at Down Royal; beautifully bred but not sure to appreciate the drop in trip this time.
