Form & Verdict
Winner of sole Irish point and made light of bumper debut at Ffos Las; encouraging third in her first hurdle run at Chepstow and after looking as if her chance had gone there 14 days ago (2m, heavy) she rallied to go down narrowly; travels well but the step up in trip can suit; bang there.
