In excellent form; has won three of his last five starts, including the Ragusa premier handicap at the Curragh off 96; narrowly denied by Ameerat Jumaira over C&D last month but much better off at weights with that rival now; 0-12 on the AW but can't be discounted in current mood.

Form & Verdict

Won a Tipperary maiden over 7f on debut before a fine second in a Gowran conditions event over this trip; just denied over 1m2.5f at Roscommon last time, probably outstayed; this trip can suit better; tongue-tie added.

Ex-French filly who faced a stiff task in Listed grade at Goodwood (well beaten) last month on British debut; duly drops in class but may struggle to defy top weight against some unexposed/progressive types.

1-7 in France for Jean-Claude Rouget, sold for 30,000euros at the end of last year; has at least a stone to find on form with some of these and looks her new stable's second string.
