Form & Verdict
Listed winner at Thurles in February and made a fine return to action when readily accounting for today's rival Time To Rocco in a Listowel mares novice in September; 15lb worse off with that rival today but sets a very good standard here and is the one to beat.

Beaten a head in this race last year off 129 on preferred soft ground; pulled up final two outings last term and didn't count (blood in nostrils) on last month's comeback run over hurdles; entitled to come on for that but legitimate questions to answer at this stage and ideally wants softer ground.

Back-to-back chase wins two years ago; nothing since then, finished in front of Lightkeeper when fourth at Wexford when last seen (2m3f, good); that was her best run for a while; refused to line up at Punchestown in April, so comes with risks attached.
