Ran creditably in several bumpers without winning, including behind Bambino Fever and William Munny; cracking effort in Navan maiden hurdle on return; third of 18 at Limerick last month (2m4f, heavy), a mistake at the last costly; should be bang there again.

Well beaten at big prices in three maiden hurdles but the handicapper hasn't taken any chances with his mark; has to do much better even dropping to handicaps but worth a market check.

Fair placed form in bumpers and over hurdles for Iain Jardine in 2024, including second in a 2m4f Perth handicap; would probably prefer better ground and lacks a recent run.

No worse than fourth in three bumpers and as many hurdles, the latest her handicap debut at Perth (2m4f, good); hood sported for last three runs is left off but can go well; drop in trip shouldn't hurt.
