Form & Verdict
Mare thriving of late on decent ground, completing hat-trick of handicap wins at Downpatrick, Tramore and Listowel; further improvement in defeat on latest when staying-on third behind a well-backed winner at Bellewstown; steps up in trip and good chance she'll stay, looks the one to beat if recent busy campaign isn't catching up.

Has failed to distinguish herself since the controversy generated by her rider's unseat at the last in this race; travelled powerfully into the straight then and was well in command; out of her depth in a Listed race at Killarney last time; previously only a moderate third at Tramore, but in front of Oh So Charming and Hasten Slowly, with War Correspondent pulled up.

Hasn't won since joining this yard last year after unseating with the race at her mercy in a Wexford claimer; decent efforts in opening two runs for this yard, but not at her best recently; needs to bounce back; cheekpieces go on.

OR: 120

Form & Verdict
Useful form in bumpers and consistent type over hurdles with wins at Navan and last month when readily landing odds in poorly-contested 2m2f Kilbeggan mares event; equally good run in defeat latest when only caught late in Sligo mares' handicap over same trip; remains unproven over this far but big chance if staying.

Below her best in a Galway Listed novice but came into that race in consistent form; should be thereabouts if returning to that level.

Useful form in bumpers; has picked up plenty of hurdling experience, notching wins at Navan in March and last month when readily landing odds in poorly-contested 2m2f Kilbeggan mares' event; only caught late in Sligo mares' handicap over same trip; soundly beaten in four-runner mares' event at Killarney; officially rated on a par with Gale Mahler.

Boasts a fair record over hurdles, 2-12, placed three times; struggling to make an impact over fences before unplaced hurdles run on latest; stable's two other runners are more appealing.

Form & Verdict
Won 2m7f handicap here last summer and fine run over much shorter trip here in May when chasing home a thriving rival in Listed mares' contest; didn't seem to stay 3m1f at Kilbeggan latest but major chance back in trip given her record here and getting weight from the top two.
