Form & Verdict
Beat the subsequently progressive Familiar Dreams in a Wexford bumper early last season; down the field in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham last November, reappeared for hurdling debut over 3m at Wexford late last month and produced a good staying performance to win well; more on her plate now, but will be sharper for the run and better for the experience.

Posted her third Listed win in convincing fashion at Kelso (3m, good to soft) four weeks ago; went close in soft-ground Grade 3 the time before; solid credentials back in a handicap.

Two Listed novice hurdle wins last season (2m5f/3m, good/good to soft), one of them at Doncaster, and close second in Grade 3 at Punchestown (2m4f, soft) last month; this Irish challenger is firmly in calculations.

Better than ever for current yard, gaining two Listed wins on right-handed tracks (good to soft); jumped that way at times when held at left-handed Doncaster in hat-trick attempt; clear on ratings and the return to a clockwise course is ideal.

All her improvement for Willie Mullins came over longer trips and she very nearly won last season's Killarney National over 3m2f; however, after two respectable Flat runs for this yard, she returned to jumps with a near miss over a similar trip to today's in Chepstow's always-competitive Silver Trophy Handicap Hurdle; clearly retains significant ability.

Not a super attractive profile with a record of 1-24 over hurdles but she has been running some nice races recently; returned to the scene of her sole win when beaten a neck at Clonmel in June (2m4f, good to yielding); went close again at Listowel last time when 0.5l behind the winner; just needs that bit more and perhaps the added tongue tie can help.
