Rated 70; excellent effort on debut at Down Royal (7f, good) last June when an unconsidered 33-1 shot; has struggled both starts at 1m this term but testing ground may not have been to her liking; this stiff track should suit, as will the better ground; place chance for yard that does well here.

Sent off at 9-1 on debut at Dundalk (7f) but didn't land a blow; the drop back in trip here should suit on that evidence and he's related to winners at this trip; however, he'll need to improve plenty for the first-time blinkers.

Form & Verdict
Now gelded son of Belardo was backed into 15-2 from 50-1 for his October Curragh debut (6f, yld-sft) and he showed speed before weakening out of it into fifth late on; different ground here and not sure this stiff track will suit; probably best watched after his break unless the market speaks in his favour.

Promise on sole 2yo start but three runs this term have been poor, too keen and didn't get home over 1m on latest in hood/tongue-tie combination (now left off); changed yards since and improvement possible now dropped to minimum trip for first time although mark may still be on the high side.

Profitable filly is a sixth foal; closely related to 7f/1m 2yo winner Marcel (inc Group 1 Racing Post Trophy; RPR 118), half-brother to 1m winner Just Brilliant (inc 2yo/AW; 86); dam unraced sister to smart sprinter Munjiz; nicely bred newcomer worth a market check, though stable form is a concern.
