Form & Verdict
Had plenty of chances now (0-10) but she's a consistent filly who was second of 16 in her latest handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good); the visor tried that day is replaced by blinkers that didn't do wonders for her when tried previously, but hard to rule out.

Showed plenty of early speed at Galway (7f, yielding to soft) and remained on the scene until only weakening in the closing stages; that was an encouraging start and today's drier ground might well play to his strengths.
