Two of three wins have been at the Curragh in testing conditions, including in March off 75; decent run at Bellewstown 5f last month, recent Naas run not to be taken literally as he raced on the wrong side.

Has okay form on good and Polytrack, and goes well on straight tracks, but last couple of wins have been on testing terrain; outstayed over 7f when second at Cork, and 5f was a bit sharp latest; all three wins have been at 6f.

Form & Verdict
Well-beaten on debut in May but much better when winning a maiden over 5.5f at Sligo (yld/sft) in August; that form was franked with the runner-up going on to win a Listed race since; top claimer helps to offest her big weight; leading chance.

Sligo maiden winner on soft last year and was later runner-up in a Newmarket listed race, both over 6f; by far the best of three runs this term when second in a 6f Naas conditions last time; the blinkers worn then are retained but this trip is a question.

Two nondescript runs over 7f before a much-improved display over 6f at Navan; apprentice rider reported that she never travelled in the early stages, so all the more encouraging that she stayed on from the rear of the 16-runner field to finish third; can cope with the extra furlong now that she has got the hang of things; leading chance.

Got up in the final strides over 5f here (good to firm) three weeks ago on his fourth start for this yard; he could have more to offer for this stable, especially back up in trip with his Irish wins having come at 7.5f/7f; respected up 4lb for last time.

Well beaten at Newmarket last month (7f, good; has won at that trip in the past) but he failed to settle and didn't look at home on the track; prior to that he kept on strongly to go very close at Musselburgh (5f, soft) on his stable debut and he remains one to be interested in.
