Emphatic winner of a fillies' handicap at Bellewstown (1m, soft) 12 days ago, eased down; hiked up 13lb, drops in trip and carries top weight on AW debut; big career best required in this deeper race.

Career-best when winning 1m1f Punchestown handicap off 76 just over a year ago; shorter trips possibly not ideal in large this term; best form is on a sound surface so might not want soft.

Reasonable level of form both outings, in fillies maidens at Leopardstown and when made plenty of use of at Naas, fading late and losing third to today's rival Eternal Reign; sharper track here should suit.
