Found great consistency on AW last year, landing a 6f handicap in October and placing four times since; poor runs on turf last twice however.

Consistent over 6f on AW during the winter and into April when second to the veteran Jered Maddox; twice runner-up on turf last year; badly drawn at Fairyhouse last month and should not be judged harshly on that run.

One of two for the yard; both wins have been at 7f; cut out most of the running when third at Down Royal (7f) last month; doesn't look particularly well treated back on the AW, though.

Bellewstown fifth was a small step in the right direction; needs to turn the tables on Lismacbryan Hill and Whatswrongnow who made the frame

0-15 in Ireland but she finished second of 17 in a Navan handicap (6f, good) in October; former stable have gone 490 days without a winner and interesting to see how she fares in the market starting out for Daragh Bourke (sold 2,600gns in January); no tongue-tie today but the hood returns.

Lightly raced mare shaped well on handicap debut off 52 at Bellewstown (5f) in April but safely held since, although good bit to take from recent Naas run in first-time blinkers when faring best of those racing far side; return to 5f to suit and could go well at decent odds.
