Form & Verdict
A 95,000euros yearling showed some promise on debut at Gowran in April over 1m after not getting the cleanest of trips; pedigree suggests that she should stay this trip and, with improvement to come, can be involved.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Rod Millman

Modest form under both codes for David Pipe; she has proved a different proposition since joining Rod Millman, running away with a small-field Class 5 at Chepstow (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago and making light of her penalty at York (1m4f, good to firm) last week; didn't look straightforward under pressure there but she was well on top at the finish and Oisin Murphy replaces an apprentice today; 7lb ahead of her mark and she's a major player.

Has done most of her recent racing over hurdles (0-15) but returned to the Flat to land a second career success easily in 1m4f Chepstow handicap (good to firm) last Friday, her first outing for Rod Millman; 3lb well in under her penalty and likely to be popular with Toby Moore able to claim 7lb against fellow apprentices.

Dual-purpose; no win over hurdles since Fairyhouse maiden success in February 2024 (2m, heavy); shaped ok when staying on for 16.5l fifth behind Jacovec Cavern on seasonal return but didn't back it up when 5-1 favourite at Ballinrobe (22.5f, good) latest; stamina to prove now up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred sort was a close third in a Galway maiden over 1m on soft ground last season; hasn't matched that form since and was gelded after a disappointing reappearance at Gowran; steps up in trip in first-time cheekpieces and a big player if reproducing his best.
