Was recording a ninth career win when making all for decisive success here over 1m4f last month (good); capitulated tamely however at Down Royal 10 days later so needs to bounce back and unproven over this far.

Was recording a ninth career win when making all for decisive success at Tramore 10 days ago (1m4f, good); 4lb rise returns her to a career-high mark and this stiffer stamina test could stretch her.

Two of her three wins over hurdles have come at Tramore; however, she was a long way below her best in a similar race to this at that course last month; that run was prefaced by weak form at Dundalk during the winter.

Ready Kempton winner (2m novices' handicap, good) for Daisy Hitchins last October; consistent for Tristan Davidson (366233), giving her best when a close third in the Sea Pigeon Series Final at Musselburgh (2m1f, good to soft) recently; 2lb higher but bang there with repeat.

2/1

Verdict

Though 2lb worse off with Fairytale Princess from their Ballinrobe meeting last time when nearly 4l ahead of that rival, NO NIKI NO(nap) can confirm the form, as her tactical speed will be a big asset at this track. [Tyrone Molloy]
