Form & Verdict
Has improved with each start and got off the mark in a Limerick maiden over just short of 1m4f last time on fast ground; unraced on ground this soft though her sire did handle if well; this trip should be fine too so respected.

Ran well in 1m/1m2f maidens, the latest when third of 18 at the Curragh (good; runner-up has since won a maiden); his dam won the Irish St Leger so looks interesting over this longer trip on handicap debut.

1m4f Roscommon maiden winner went close in a valuable 1m6f handicap here in May off 10lb lower; not disgraced in a 1m4f Group 3 at Cork but hiked up 6lb and beaten 11l on return to a handicap over C&D latest; bit to prove off current mark.

1m4f Roscommon maiden winner (good) shaped promisingly when a 1.5l second of 24 on handicap debut here in May (1m6f, good) off 10lb lower; not disgraced in Cork Group 3 (1m4f, good) on latest, but 6lb rise for that makes things tougher back in handicap company.

Showed improved form stepped up in trip when getting off the mark in a C&D maiden last time on good ground; the tongue-tie worn then is retained and is considered though was poor only run (debut) on soft.

Strong form at Leopardstown last season, winning three times, including a Listed contest and premier handicap (both over 1m5f on good to yielding); never a factor in the Irish Cesarewitch; unsuited by very soft ground here on seasonal debut; fine effort when runner-up to Scandinavia in the Saval Beg at Leopardstown (1m6f, good).

3yo is 0-6 but went close to gaining first win when not quite seeing out 1m5f in a Leopardstown maiden last month; now makes handicap debut off a mark of 80; ran well over 1m here on second start last year and gets the weight for age allowance; interesting back in trip.
