Modest Flat performer didn't run that badly in two previous maiden hurdles at Ballinrobe and Killarney but he's likely to be seen to better effect when tackling handicaps. |

Promise in a couple of AW runs for John O'Donoghue; weaker form in five runs on turf for that yard; stepped up from stable debut when beating Nibras Rainbow over C&D three weeks ago, justifying market confidence; reportedly in foal to Phoenix Of Spain; may continue to prosper. |

Second over 1m4f here in November, but that's her only time to place in 10 starts here and 1m likely too sharp; another headgear combo tried, but even the champion jockey will struggle to get this one involved |
