Despite showing inexperience, she shaped quite well in chasing home an impressive winner on her Newbury debut last August; favourite when some way below that level at Kempton on her second start; Wolverhampton run looked too bad to be true, but no excuses were put forward; 24,000gns Shadwell cast-off; risky, but the bar is set low for her Irish debut.

Second in a small-field C&D maiden in May; well beaten in third behind a useful filly at Down Royal; winning favourite in a Dundalk maiden in January; made a satisfactory start to this season when third in a C&D event on yielding-to-soft; better ground will suit; in season when taken out of a race in a higher grade here last Sunday.

Appreciated the step up in trip to 1m4f-plus when winning at Thurles on his final start last season; ex-Dermot Weld; further improvement possible for his new trainer; this may not be far enough to bring out the best in him.

Touched off at this venue on her only start at two; beaten favourite on her reappearance last spring; made amends on the second of two starts in the autumn, stuck to her task (despite hanging to the right) to land a heavy-ground maiden over a bit shorter than this at Gowran; fair chance she can pay her way in handicaps this season.

Sprang 125-1 shock in a 1m2f Navan maiden last September, proved that was no fluke later in the month when going down narrowly on handicap debut over 1m5f at Down Royal; progress not maintained in two subsequent outings; cheekpieces on now.

Beaten 10l on debut over 1m at Dundalk last November; stepped up in trip and off the mark back there over 1m4f 17 days ago; no reason he won't be effective on turf (dam three-time winner on good ground) and rider takes off a handy 5lb; entered in the Irish Derby.

Best of three maiden efforts came here over 1m last October (yielding); bred to be better than an opening mark of 78 and his dam won over 1m4f, so good chance he'll stay this far on handicap debut; yard amongst winners.

Has progressed since tackling handicaps; 0.5l win off 58 at Dundalk in March (1m) followed by a 2.25l win at the same venue in April off 65; up another 9lb now and this is a deeper race; has to prove she is effective on turf and at this longer trip (mixed messages in pedigree).

Off the mark on seasonal return at Navan in March (1m2f, heavy); upset in stalls when beaten 3.75l by Darius Dark off 12lb higher mark at Cork (gd-yld); can give a good account if the cheekpieces have a positive effect.

Big prices all three maidens but sent off 11-2 on handicap debut at Cork (1m4f, gd-yld) and duly delivered a 0.5l win off 63 (Servare a 3.75l fifth); the third from that race has since hosed up in a maiden; raised 5lb but from a talented family and could be more to come.

Found just Servare too good when a 7l second on handicap debut at Navan (1m2f, heavy); went even closer when a 0.75l second at the Curragh last time (1m, soft, two of these behind); raised 3lb; good ground and this longer trip are unknowns.
