Placed in three maidens as a 3yo including over C&D (gd-fm); kept on in a handicap over 5f here on latest for a 5l sixth of 18 off 71; return to 6f a plus but more needed back in maiden company. |

Three of her four wins have come over 5f at the Curragh, including race for second successive year last month when making much of running; another good run off 6lb higher in similar contest 11 days ago when beaten under 2l: stiff 6f here probably not ideal. |
