Not particularly well-fancied (8-1) but ran a cracker on debut at Down Royal behind a filly that was a Group 2 runner-up since; hung left that day and should be more comfortable going this way around; with improvement likely should win this.

2-18; experienced filly was narrowly denied in a big field handicap at Leopardstown last time off 66 (7f, good); up 1lb to 67 for that 0.75l third but she won nurseries off 68 and 76 last October; those victories came on yielding-soft and heavy but she handles quicker ground and she should be on the premises.
