Handicap debutante; first maiden hurdle run promising but recent showings well below that level and on the balance of her hurdles' form her opening mark doesn't look a gift.

Useful bumper form and stepped forward hugely from underwhelming hurdles debut effort to land 2m2f Downpatrick mares' maiden in August, quickening up well from the last to beat a hot favourite 5l (good); soon beaten however on easier ground in Leopardstown novice handicap last month and legitimate ground concerns upped in grade.
