4yo hasn't won since her 2yo days but not beaten far the last twice, in a Group 3 at Leopardstown (7f, good) and when a 3l fourth of 15 in a Listed contest over C&D (good) a month ago (behind Soul Love and Dancing Saxon); a fair bit to find on the figures with a few of these.

Leopardstown Listed winner at two (7f) hasn't won again since but ran well in Group 3 there last summer over same trip; just okay runs both starts this term, blinkers tried at same track last time; takes a drop in trip here which could prove troublesome.

Enjoying an excellent campaign; two wins include Galway handicap and better form in defeat when placed in fillies Group 3 contests since, at Naas and when chasing home a clear winner at Cork last month (7f, yielding); unproven on ground this soft, but can go well if handling it.

One of four for yard; enjoying an excellent campaign; won over 6.5f (good) at Limerick in July and narrowly denied in a 6f Listed heat at Naas later that month; took advantage of generous mark to bolt up in a Galway handicap (7f, yielding) and another fine effort in a Naas Group 3 (6f good) on latest; return to 7f a plus and leading claims.

3yo filly is 3-9 with all three of her wins coming over 5f/6f at Naas; won a Group 3 over the latter trip on her seasonal return (good) and outran her odds of 28-1 when a fine 2l fourth in the Commonwealth Cup (6f, gd-fm); gets all the allowances here and the drop back to 5f should pose no problems; big chance.
