One of two runners for yard; consistent form in Listed company at 10.5f to 13f this season before being outclassed in a Group 2 at the Curragh on latest start; she should be a lot more comfortable in this company and she looks capable of picking up more black type if taking to the surface on her AW bow.

Steadily progressive this term upped in trip, notably second to subsequent Queens Vase third Birdman in 1m5f Navan Listed (4-runners) and when back to 1m2f in Naas Oaks Trial last month, outpaced late after briefly hitting the front late on; trip/ground to suit, seems sure to go well.
