In the hunt for a three-timer following back-to-back wins of a 21-runner handicap at the Curragh in April (6f, soft) and a 6f contest at Naas the following month (good), needed to wait for room before winning by a short head; she's up an aggregate of 18lb but is in wonderful form.

J: Ronan Whelan

T: Timothy Doyle

Outran long odds on debut at Navan in 2024 when third of 19 but missed all last season; moderate comeback run over C&D (6f, heavy); slight improvement here next time but still ninth of 12 (soft to heavy); tongue tie goes on now for handicap debut.

Form & Verdict
Lost his way last season after going close in a 1m handicap at Galway in August (yielding) off 4lb higher; perhaps the break and the added tongue tie will aid a return to form.

Form & Verdict
Gained all three wins over the minimum trip, including here in June last year (good to yielding) off 63; ran well at Navan twice towards the end of last year but interspersed with two moderate starts at this venue; this will be just the third ride of his rider's career under rules'.

Ground versatile and consistent; won his second race of the season over C&D (soft) 11 days ago (Smoke Them Out third, Go Athletico fourth) and that form has since been boosted; hiked up 8lb and this is a deeper race but likely to give his running again; player.

Remarkably consistent this year; four wins at 5f in his career, yet to win over 6f, but has gone close to it and don't think it's a stamina issue; chased home Smoke Them Out over 5f at Bellewstown during the week.

Navan nursery handicap winner in October (6f, yielding); has beaten precious few rivals in three handicap runs for new yard including when tailed off at Bellewstown last time; new hood needs to spark something.

Looked raw at Navan on sole start as a 2yo; shaped well when a staying-on sixth of 18 over an extended 6f here on seasonal debut; hasn't builed on that in two subsequent runs here, the latest over 7f in a tongue tie (now abandoned); makes handicap debut now.
