Form & Verdict
Given an ambitious assignment in a Listed race at Naas last time; sights lowered again and looks like the one to beat based on her previous consistency; placed in all seven races between April and September; profile is concerning, especially on account of odds-on Fairyhouse defeat in September.

Maiden winner on the AW and doubled her tally when making most over 7f at Gowran in June (7f, soft); essentially 4lb lower here with Rory Mulligan claiming 7lb and her Curragh run two months ago was too bad to be true.
