0-6 and rated 74; some solid efforts in defeat, including a 0.5l third of 13 in a Naas maiden last August (6f, good); shaped like worth another go at 1m when a keeping on second in a 7f claimer at Roscommon latest; player.

Not beaten far when third of 13 in a Naas maiden (6f, good) last August; two maiden runs this year below that level; a doubt about her official rating of 75 was raised by her handicap debut at the Curragh, when last of 12; on the plus side, the stable has had two recent winners.

Best effort in maidens came on her third start at Dundalk (6f) in August; non-runner on account of yielding to soft ground at Naas in September so may need the track to dry out to make an impact on her handicap debut.

Best of three maiden runs came second time up over 7f at Down Royal (good), a 1.75l third at 80-1; easy ground may not have suited on latest; not sure 6f will suit on nursery debut but worth a market check nonetheless.

Fairly useful, consistent level of form in five starts, notably when second in 7f maidens at Galway and most recently at Down Royal; in between not quite so effective when second to a ready winner here over 6f; needs to settle better than of late but should again be in the mix.
