Form & Verdict

Promise both starts early last season over 5f here on soft (3.25l behind subsequent Group 1 winner Power Blue) and at Cork on good ground; has been off the track since that 2.5l third at Cork last April but that debut effort stands out and if she repeats that, she should be thereabouts.

Stepped forward from a disappointing debut with a 6l fourth of 10 at Cork (6f, good) last June; off since and different ground here but she's a half-sister to a heavy ground winner so could handle it; top yard has started the season well and she has to be considered with Moore up for the first time.
