17/2

Magna Grecia filly got off the mark on debut at Roscommon (7.5f, good) six days ago; didn't shape like she was crying out for a drop back in trip that day and her dam was best over 1m2f-1m4f; may be vulnerable to speedier rivals at this distance.

AI verdict

SR 78 suggests ability but 17/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
