Bumper winner at the start of the season and returned from a break to win a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse before taking a step up in class in her stride when successful in a mares' Grade 3 at Down Royal last month; didn't seem to give her running at Newbury since and this might be tough, giving weight away.

Landed a bumper in May and added hurdle wins around 2m at Fairyhouse (maiden) and Down Royal (Grade 3 mares' novice) this autumn; those successes came on good (twice) and good to yielding; has the form to be bang there but others perhaps have greater scope for improvement.
