Form & Verdict

Created a telling impression on debut when overcoming a slow start to win a Killarney maiden in very smart fashion; takes a jump in class here but the way in which she took care of business suggests she could have plenty more to offer; from the family of Derby winner Authorized, she should improve plenty.

Form & Verdict

Showed cracking promise as a 2yo; won a Cork conditions event before finishing second in the Ballyhane and Beresford Stakes; didn't show much in first two runs this season but only beaten just shy of 3l in Irish Cambridgeshire last time; should improve for that and seems well treated here; chance.

Three wins from 13 starts, most recent of which came in a Leopardstown handicap on his penultimate start; okay run since at Navan but faces a tough task at the weights here; lots to find.
