Useful mare, though not as effective as she promised to be early in her career; -1-9 over fences, placed four times, including third in the Mayo National; moderate run at Sligo last time, but has to be taken seriously.

Course winner at 15.5f; seems best on heavy ground and scored twice in those conditions earlier this year, over hurdles at Clonmel (16.5f) and over fences at Gowran (19.5f); capable off this mark and rain would boost his claims.
