Form & Verdict
Well-bred mare who was third behind respected opposition at Navan and only just failed at Downpatrick when perhaps not seen to best effect on that quirky track; the form is okay, as the winner (whom she was ahead of the time before) ran well on his previous start and the third was runner-up at Cartmel on Saturday.
