Both wins from the front over C&D, her local track, most recently last October off 72; quiet season so far (out of depth on first run) but sure to have been primed for her return to this track and Keane back on.

Not beaten far off a mark of 80 in a Fairyhouse handicap last week and has looked as effective at 5f in the past; gelding procedure needs to yield some improvement back in a maiden giving weight to all.
