Form & Verdict

While not as good as he was in Ireland, he has recovered some form to take minor honours when helping to make the running on last two outings (6f, good to soft); seemed to stay 7f on Irish AW; case can be made.

Cheekpieces for last two starts, finally off the mark in ten-runner maiden handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) last time; back up 3lb but has a big shout if repeating one of her best efforts.

Form & Verdict

Races prominently; 0-6 with two pieces of form (1m and 7f) which rather stand out and they were both at this track; rather disappointing that she failed to convert when 8-11 in 7f maiden at Ayr on latest outing, making most, but this return to Musselburgh might help; also visored first time.
