Won a 2m1f maiden hurdle at Killarney in 2024; fairly lightly raced since then but her runs haven't been too encouraging, although ran well for a 66-1 shot at Wexford last time when fifth of 14 (2m4f, good to yielding); shaped like this trip was worth a go that day.

Took runner-up spot at Kilbeggan on second hurdle start (2m1f, yielding) and caught the eye of the stewarsd at last year's festival here ; tailed off at Naas in November and pulled up at Cork (2m4f, soft to heavy) on handicap bow; this is weak, so she's in the mix, but others preferred.

Running for the 45th time when opening her account over hurdles at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding, 100-30 fav) last month; couldn't follow up back there next time (3m1f, good, 12-1) off 5lb higher; regular 7lb claimer has been replaced for this return to fences (0-9), but her overall profile is unappealing.
