Form & Verdict

Well-bred filly with Irish Classic entries; close second over this trip on debut at Punchestown when just 0.5l behind 8-1 (good to yielding); didn't build on that at the Curragh next time when beaten at 11-10 after trying to make all (7f, yielding to soft); beaten favourite again (evens) at Gowran when last seen, headed inside the final furlong; remains of interest but stable first string is the debutante Drop Dead Gorgeous.

Form & Verdict

Winless from six but some good efforts in defeat; runner-up at Gowran (good) and again at Galway (soft) both over 7f; close third at the Curragh on nursery debut, coming from further back than the front two (7f, yielding to soft); beaten just a nose at Gowran when last seen in October when upped to an extended 1m trip; dependable filly will give her running, but there may be more talented individuals.

Form & Verdict

Beaten 20l+ in two maiden starts, the latter of which she was priced 150-1 at Dundalk; out of her depth in this company.
