Form & Verdict

Half-sister to Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Al Boum Photo won at Sligo last summer (good) before finishing second against some useful geldings at Galway; reappeared at the festival here in April when not far off the placed horses in Grade 3 won impressively by a stablemate; plenty of decent mares behind her then.
