Off the mark with 1m4f success at Dundalk in February and creditable efforts in defeat on AW since; despite missing the break, took the step up to 16.5f in her stride when winning at Gowran (good) on latest; player from 6lb higher. |

Two Flat wins on AW; no doubts about fitness after three recent runs on the Flat; hurdles mark is based on three 2021/22 outings; getting on in years but could be a dark horse. |
8/1 |

7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 0y |

Both wins on AW; returned from absence with moderate effort over C&D but improved effort four days later when 3.5l behind Omakase at Gowran (short of room late on); has to enter calculations 11lb better off factoring in rider's claims. |
16/1 |

21st May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 100y |

Both wins on AW and well held behind Makaiah on Saturday; entitled to come on for that but it's a quick turnaround; possible a return to further will help though. |

Three years since her sole Flat win (1m7f, soft) but only narrowly denied over 1m5f at Down Royal last month on similar ground; not as effective on fast ground six days later at the Curragh so ground concerns again here. |
14/1 |

Second reserve; dual-purpose; 1-25 on turf on the Flat; back to form with neck second of 14 at Down Royal (1m3f, soft) six days ago; her win came on soft so quicker conditions a concern for her here. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when runner-up at Down Royal (2m1, soft, 7-2 fav') in final start for Gary McGill in January; unfancied and well beaten in two runs for new yard; may go well back in 0-100 company now. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January off 3lb lower; weak in the market for Ayr run last time, weakening quickly to finish last of six finishers; in the mix at his best. |

Has won three times, including over C&D two years ago when trained by current handler, who has taken over once more after eight starts for Gary McGill; returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January and this Irish-trained challenger should be in the firing line. |
