Made a winning debut here last October (extended 1m, soft to heavy), going clear late on, with a shorter-priced stablemate back in third; met trouble in running on belated reappearance in a Listed race at Gowran last month (1m1f, good-to-firm); should be a lot sharper now, and this longer trip and contrasting ground should suit; blinkers worn on debut are refitted.

Some fairly useful form on the Flat in Ireland but she's still a maiden after seven starts in that sphere and has struggled in both runs (Listed/novice) for current yard; hard to weigh up now switched to hurdling and market should guide; tongue-tie added.

Best run at two came when beaten 4.5l into fifth by Diamond Necklace in Ingabelle Stakes (7f, good), albeit flattered by proximity to winner; beaten 6.25l into third in maiden at Galway in October on soft ground; used as pacemaker in Group 1 company last twice; obviously far calmer waters here, and her two-year-old form makes her the one to beat.
