Form & Verdict

Below her best at Cork on final start at two; has sound credentials on the balance of form; three consecutive seconds included one behind the subsequent Birdcatcher winner Last Encore at Navan; backed that up with a pleasing run behind the French-trained Spirit D'Or in a valuable Curragh sales race.

Form & Verdict

Five-race maiden but well worth considering on his Birdcatcher Nursery third at this venue; finished well and should appreciate the extra furlong; renews rivalry with Kodilicious (fifth) and Temperance (sixth); Colin Keane sticks with him.

Form & Verdict

Emphatic maiden win was achieved over an extended 1m at Gowran on his fifth and final start as a juvenile; ground will suit; might prefer further, though he went close over C&D last July and also got into the money over 7f at Galway

Sligo maiden winner; solid nursery form before going close in a 6f Listed race at Newmarket in November; finished fifth in the Birdcatcher Nursery over C&D (rallied after getting outpaced); her renewal of rivalry with Manhattan Chute (third) and Temperance (sixth) could be a key factor here.
