Consistent in maidens and showed good attitude when getting off the mark at Gowran, confirming Naas form with runner-up Eternal Reign; can be ridden close to the pace which could be an important asset in this.

Placed in all five maidens (1m2f/1m3f) this term and she's generally been a weak finisher; drops to a mile for handicap debut, which looks worth a try, and new headgear combo.

Keane rode her to win twice over longer trips but now looks elsewhere after she was held in useful non-handicap contest at Navan; Ryan's claim brings her mark below her last winning one and you'd imagine he'll make plenty of use of her.

They've been trying to get her to settle and hood helped when she was beaten only a length over straight 7f at Cork having won over that trip around a bend earlier in the summer; stamina the issue but latest run gives rise to hope that she might see out 1m here around a turn.

Only non-3yo in the field and much more exposed than her rivals; good record over this trip on AW but handy enough on turf too and came from well back to finish on the heels of Vivienda at Gowran; usually held up, so she's a hostage to fortune in that respect.
