Maiden hurdle winner here last season (2m4f, soft) is 0-5 chasing this term, standout run when only caught close home by a strong favourite in 2m4f Naas handicap in February (heavy), having hit the last; reportedly never travelled before pulled up over 3m at Navan last month, but claims if back to her Naas form.

Punchestown maiden hurdle winner was a distant second in the third of her beginners' chase starts at Naas (2m4f, soft); improved for switch to handicaps in a Listed contest back there last time (2m4f, heavy) when making a mistake at the last and being headed in the final strides; up 6lb for that but should be thereabouts.

Punchestown maiden hurdle winner in January last year; saddle slipped when pulled up on seasonal return in a mares' beginners' at Cork; no real excuses when tailed off here next time over C&D; better effort when a distant second in a beginners' back here latest; may do better now in handicap chases.
