Best form was in the early part of last season; decent effort when close up in third at Gowran on penultimate run; soundly beaten in fourth on soft at Roscommon last time; tongue-tie and better ground may help.

Is 2-10, the last win coming off 82 at the Curragh in May last year (1m, good); back to form on latest run, beaten 0.5L at Gowran off 81 (7f, good to firm) and she's 2lb lower now; has won on yielding to soft but the vast majority of her best form is on good ground so testing conditions would be a concern.

Form & Verdict

Went close in three maidens last year up to 7f in varying ground conditions and also ran respectably in a Group 3; unplaced over 1m on testing ground at the Curragh on seasonal debut; left Jessica Harrington; readily coped with a straightforward task on stable debut in a 1m Killarney maiden in July; superbly-bred filly is potentially well handicapped.

Well-bred and expensive yearling went close in three maidens last year up to 7f in varying ground conditions plus ran respectably in a Group 3; was below form over this trip on testing ground on seasonal debut but has changed stable since and this sound surface will suit better; big chance with cheekpieces on

Went down by no more than a length in all three maiden starts last term, including never-nearer second over 7f at Galway when last seen in August; respectable run in Group 3 before that; that Galway run was on yielding to soft but has missed several engagements due to soft ground; first try at 1m.

Form & Verdict

7f maiden winner at the Curragh at two for David Geary; campaigned in stakes company last season, best effort when fourth in Group 3 1000 Guineas Trial at Leopardstown; off for over a year until making her first appearance for this stable at Tipperary early this month; should be a lot better for the run, unwise to rule out.
