Form & Verdict
Best of her three runs was 3l third at Leopardstown in October (7f, heavy) but she had an excuse for a disappointing return at the Curragh (took a bad step and was sore on pulling up); yard knocking them in from all angles.

One of two for yard; 3-15 and rated 103; gained a first win at this level in the Bluebell Stakes at Naas (1m4f, yielding) three weeks ago, leaving this year's earlier form well behind; 3lb penalty now but handles heavy ground and preferred by Foley.

Form & Verdict
Third on return at Cork (7f, heavy) but always on the back foot after tardy start and didn't handle the track when beaten favourite at Sligo (5.5f) (third runs in the opener on this card); trainer wastes little time in getting her out again and track and trip should see her in a better light.
