Form & Verdict
Eight-time winner including over C&D as a 5yo, last win coming at Bellewstown last summer; excellent comeback run at Navan 10 days ago when reeling in clear leader late on only to be cut down by a classy sort (Bold Optimist 3l away third); 1lb rise fine and drops in grade here; big player.

Nine-time winner, including twice over C&D; no joy yet this season; ran better than the bare result from 10lb out of the handicap in the Rockingham; finished well in the recent Naas event won by Sovereign Cry; not ruled out.

Nine-time winner including over C&D; no joy yet this season but ran better than the bare result from miles out of the handicap at the Curragh last weekend; this more realistic and lurking on a dangerous mark.

Some good efforts for her new yard this year prior to snapping a losing sequence with a win at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; that may have given her confidence a boost and she's respected back up 4lb.

Sole win came at the Curragh last summer (5f, good); very encouraging comeback run over same C&D last month but hasn't backed that up in very competitive handicaps since; hard to be confident in.

Won for the third time (all over 5f) when scoring at the Curragh last October off a 5lb lower mark; well below that level on seasonal debut but can come on for that; has run well in defeat here.

Form & Verdict
Improved since being dropped to 5f, winning over C&D last month off 61, better again when close fourth at Naas; did well considering she blew that start at Cork (under 7lb claimer) on latest and quite likely she has more to offer with senior rider back aboard.

Just 1-47 but has been in good form of late in a busy campaign, going close at both Naas and Navan; left with fair bit to do from a high draw at Cork last time but remains a threat on overall profile.

In the first two in four of her last five races, the exception was over in a 5f Naas contest won by Surpass And Shine, with My Girl Sioux third; had the better of the exchange with that dual subsequent winner at Tipperary and Naas; leading chance.

In the first two in three of her last four races; a slight concern is based on the fact that the exception was over C&D in a contest in which My Girl Sioux was third; had the better of an exchange with that rival at Tipperary more recently.
