Came right back to form when landing a mares' maiden hurdle here last month and almost followed up at Bellewstown; looks the stable second string here but can by no means be discounted on that score.

Maiden hurdle winner at Down Royal in June and ran to a similar level when twice going up against the useful The Little Yank; step up in trip here is likely to suit and certainly one for the shortlist.

Lightly-raced on the track; won a hunter chase at Fairyhouse last year and did her best work late in a Kilbeggan novice hurdle last time; could be progressive and the step up in trip here will help, although more rain would be a bigger help.

Tried hard to justify favourite's tag in a beginners chase here latest; good second also here on last start over hurdles; tongue-tie won't need to bring about a whole lot of improvement in order for her to add to sole win (2021); should give another good account. |
