In sparkling form when last seen out over hurdles in Naas, chasing a hat-trick when coming down at the last in the latter, although doubtful she would have got there, albeit running a big race; hurdle form still a fair way short of the big guns here all the same, and the switch to the larger obstacles will need to bring about further improvement, that not impossible for a mare on the up.

Arrives bidding for a hat-trick after back-to-back handicap hurdle wins; however, it was a weak race she won last time and she's not guaranteed to follow up with a 10lb higher mark to cope with; drops in trip.
