Form & Verdict
Ran five times for Emmet Mullins in 2024; attracted the attention of the stewards on handicap debut at Fairyhouse; several possible excuses were advanced (hampered at start, hit a ridge two furlongs out, lost both hind shoes); not a bad run at Dundalk on final start; missed all of last year; could be interesting on stable debut off a 7lb lower mark.

Last turf win came at Naas nearly two years ago (off 63); standout run this term when C&D third (neck off second-placed Jasmine Affanalis) in May, most recently didn't seem to get home at Bellewstown; Colin Keane booking takes the eye.

Ran well in three turf maidens last year; too keen over 1m on final outing but still managed a respectable fourth; form of that race boosted by wins for the placed horses, Naples and Tina's Charm, and fifth-placed Daler; found 6f inadequate at Naas last Sunday, can make an impact over this extra furlong and may turn the tables on third-placed Mickey The Steel.
