Form & Verdict
Debut win at Limerick remains her only success but she has run some big races in defeat in hot handicaps at the Curragh and Leopardstown, including when a close second off 85 on seasonal return last year at the former venue (1m, good); worth a market check on debut for new stable.

Best results on good ground; debut remains her only win but she has run some big races in defeat, narrowly denied in a fine duel over 9.5f at Gowran Park on last month's stable/seasonal debut; that's the furthest she's been and she was well held when back to 1m for new owners at Royal Ascot 16 days later; well worth a go at 1m2f.

Form & Verdict
Three-time winner (including at this venue) went close to adding a fourth when an unlucky 0.5l third at Leopardstown last month; should be competitive again off just 1lb higher with Keane booked (on board for last win).

Form & Verdict
Dual-purpose; 4-19 on turf on the Flat; fit from hurdling; last win in this sphere came at Navan off 84 in August (10.5f, gd-yld); no impact off revised mark since and remains 4lb higher than that last success; may need respite from the assessor.

Both wins in August, so coming into her time of year; money for her when fourth over 1m2f here in May, and stayed on from rear when fifth in the Ladies Derby over 1m2f at the Curragh, a race won by well-backed stablemate; that run might have sweetened her up and she can reverse placings with third-placed Cooley's Mist; hampered when fourth to Tatum in last year's renewal; has won over 1m4f.
