T: Henry De Bromhead

Went up 9lb for a decisive success in quite a valuable 2m handicap chase at Cork in October; won a Downpatrick handicap hurdle after six months off in June before fading rapidly at Galway; first run off her new chase mark here and interesting to see if she is as effective back up in trip; definite chance if she is.
