Twice finished well in 2m1f Wexford handicaps before off the mark in similar mares' contest there (2m2f, good) last month, showing good attitude; race came too soon possibly when never a factor over C&D two days later; could bounce back for leading yard.

1-7 over hurdles and fine run at Down Royal on latest (17.5f, good) when a 3l second of 14 off 97; close third here on chase debut back in May (19.5f, gd-yld) and going left-handed may not have suited on last chase start at Listowel (hung and jumped right); big chance.

Won off 11lb lower at Punchestown in May (2m3f, good); ran okay in a couple of chases subsequently but pretty well held off revised mark back over hurdles the last twice; tongue tie needs to eke out more.

Very promising handicap hurdle debut last month at Kilbeggan, chasing clear leader throughout without landing a blow in 16-runner 2m3f contest (good); run here a fortnight later (2m4f) too bad to be true; takes a drop in trip and remains of interest.
