Promise on debut at Dundalk over 1m2.5f and improved on that raised to 1m4f when third at Fairyhouse last month against colts; this slightly shorter trip probably isn't ideal but she looks a major player.

Progressive last season; two wins from five starts including a Listed contest at Leopardstown (1m6f, good) by 4.25l; signed off with a very respectable 3.75l fifth in the Group 2 Park Hill at Doncaster (14.5f, gd-sft); carries a penalty but big chance if ready after 236 days off.

Five races, improving every time; unraced on softer than good to yielding; won maiden at Limerick (11.3f) in July and Listed race at Leopardstown (upped to 1m6f) three weeks ago; in the latter she was ridden patiently (leader went too fast) and swooped to challenge 2f out, finishing well on top; this is a stiffer task but it's hard to say just how good she might become.

Very useful filly has returned this term with 0.5l defeats by Moody at Listed level at both Cork (1m4f) and Gowran (1m6f), each time forcing it; this a much deeper race than those however so will do well to sneak a place.
