Two hurdle wins include 2m Thurles mares novice in December; ran better than position suggests in Grade 2 Ryanair Mares' Novice at Cheltenham latest, slowly away and bit short of room before last; lots to find however.

Useful bumper form but hammered by Bambino Fever when they once clashed in that scene; steadily progressive hurdler and her trainer targeted this race straight after she won a Listed race at Thurles in December (yielding); probably playing for the places, however.

Beaten about 13l by Bambino Fever in a bumper but she won three of those, including a Grade 3 at Punchestown (yielding); no surprise to see her doing well over hurdles and the defeats have come in a Grade 3 at Down Royal (won by Full Of Life who dictated) and a Grade 1 at Leopardstown where she was left in second at the final flight behind smart gelding Skylight Hustle; she's back against her own sex here and rates solid each-way material.
