Three bumper wins including a Grade 2 for mares at Aintree; the best of three Flat runs was when runner-up in a Tramore maiden over 1m4f, though a beaten odds-on fav' then; this longer trip will suit better and she should be a big player.

Smart form in bumpers, winning Listed event at Cheltenham in November before landing the mares' Aintree Grade 2 and it was a big run in defeat at the Punchestown festival; two Flat runs a bit underwhelming, not strong at the finish at both Down Royal and over this trip at Fairyhouse last month; worth another chance and this sharp 1m4f could suit.
