0-23 over hurdles but she has finished second four times; beaten 5l into second at Leopardstown off 86 in March 2023; went close off 84, 86 and 87 later that year; well-handicapped now off 80 but she hasn't shown enough in four runs this season; needs a revival. |

Subject of a gamble here last time (2-1 fav') when gaining first win back from a 458-day absence on second start (2m3f, good to yielding) for this stable; up 14lb but it was an easy win so he might be up to going in again. |

18th Aug 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 140y |
11st 3lb |
Was the subject of a major market move on his second handicap start when returning from a 538 day absence earlier this month at Wexford (sent off 4-1 fav); must have been showing a bit at home and he shaped well enough before the lack of a recent run took its toll; respected, especially if the money comes again. |

Absent 297 days; 0-5 over hurdles but all his Rules runs have come on ground with soft or heavy in the description; was placed in a point-to-point on good and his two winning half-brothers both scored on a sound surface so the better ground here may spark some improvement. |
