Some good efforts for her new yard this year prior to snapping a losing sequence with a win at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; that may have given her confidence a boost and she's respected back up 4lb.

Nicely-bred sort ran very green on debut over 7f at Dundalk in November; drops back to this very fast 5f here; new headgear tried but more experienced rivals make more appeal.

There was promise shown last year and some sign of turning a corner when a 5l sixth at Down Royal last time (5f maiden; first-time blinkers); one to consider.

Form & Verdict
Touched off in the Listed Committed Stakes at Navan in April; beaten favourite twice since, although Mehmar did frank the form of his last effort in a Naas handicap on Monday; gelded since his last run and blinkers tried here; should pick these up and carry them on ratings.
