Promising Navan debut when strong-finishing 1/2l second over 1m, despite rider losing an iron close home; impressed in beating two stablemates in testing conditions in a 1m Curragh maiden at the beginning of November; got outpaced in the Ballysax on reappearance, kept on late in fifth, around 3l behind Endorsement. |

A 40,000gns yearling; first foal; dam French 10.5f AW winner, closely related to winners Angel Power (Italian 1m2f Group 2) and The Reverend (useful 7f-1m6f); promising Navan debut last month when strong finishing 1/2l second over today's trip, despite rider losing an iron close home (yielding); has to be respected although this could prove to be a stronger maiden. |

Chased home now 100-rated stablemate James J Braddock on debut last year at the Curragh; sent off 11-8 favourite here on seasonal reappearance when keeping on for a 1.5l second (over 4l clear of the third); well worth a go over this far on that evidence, but good ground is an unknown; leading chance if he acts on it. |

Good progress since joining this yard includes Southwell novice win (1m) in January and successful handicap debut at Kempton (7f, also AW) in March; just her second turf outing when solid second at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) four weeks ago and highly likely to be competitive again. |
