Found just the progressive Meriden too good in a 7f Curragh premier handicap on her latest start in June; another solid run over 1m there on latest; worth another go over this shorter trip and is just 2lb higher than when winning this race last season (run at Tipperary); claims.

Three wins last season, including handicaps at Leopardstown (1m, good to firm) and Tipperary (7.5f, good); out of her depth in a Group 3 on seasonal debut; below form on soft at Leopardstown; much more like it on quick going over 7f here last time, chasing home one of the stars of the season, Meriden, who has won a Listed race to complete a five-timer; strong chance.

Four-time winner (three on turf) including twice here last season over 7f on good and soft ground; is now just 1lb above the latest of those victories and 1m fine but needs to leave this term's poor form behind.

Won twice last season, both at this venue (7f, good to soft) including on this card; remains 5lb above her last win and her first two runs of the season offered little, but the yard had two winners at Roscommon on Monday so watch the betting.
