Has been in career-best form this season, winning back-to-back handicaps over 5f here and at Down Royal before just failing in Rockingham Handicap at the Curragh; holding her form well but tougher test now back in Listed company.

Won a Bellewstown handicap in October (5f, soft) off 2lb higher; running well in defeat this season, not least when runner-up behind her reopposing stablemate Dandy Land over C&D last time (good); 1.25l to find with that rival but better off at the weights; suited by softer.

Form & Verdict
Modest form on turf on his first four starts, including when 14th of 16 in a nursery at the Curragh last September; different proposition when switched to AW; fourth in a nursery over this trip on his first Dundalk run, and improved again when scoring over 6f in November; runner-up over 7f in November and again over 6f in January.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: Ollie Sangster

Made all to win a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; had form at this trip in Ireland and he comes here in preference to an intended Wolverhampton run on Tuesday; suspicion remains that he's likely to prove a cut above this level.

Form: 0709

3 yo Colt

Form & Verdict
Best of his three maiden runs when seventh of 17 over 7f at Dundalk on his second start; finished with only two behind him on handicap debut in 11-runner 7f event at Cork; shorter trip not guaranteed to produce improvement.
