Consistent on AW at three, winning over 1m4f; had some good hurdling form, without winning, in 2024; just one run over flights last year; ran well in a charity race at the Curragh on Derby weekend; has to enter calculations in such a weak contest.
Placed at two and went close to making all in 1m4f Leopardstown handicap last year, only beaten half-a-length; left Natalia Lupini after; tailed off on stable debut last month.
Runner-up in soft-ground 1m4f handicap at Doncaster at three for Charlie Johnston; lightly raced for this yard; okay run over hurdles last year; out the back in 1m2f Roscommon handicap when last seen.
AW winner over 10.5f in March and her higher-grade third at Naas was a good effort; 1m4f has seemed a bridge too far, though, and long way behind Masego over that trip at Bellewstown; excuse for latest run (1m2f) at Navan.
Five wins, two of them on turf, including 25-1 success over extended 1m6f at Bellewstown earlier this month; needed every yard that day, and his previous win was over 2m; got an 8lb rise, which is likely to prevent a follow-up; placed once in seven previous runs here.
Trainer's four-timer last weekend makes this 1m1f winner of interest; narrowly beaten over 1m3f here in September, too, and some decent runs hurdling during the winter; nice run over 1m at Leopardstown but unplaced at Navan since; tongue-tie left off; doubt she wants it too fast.
Bit of promise over hurdles last year for Mags Mullins; made all to beat 18 rivals over this trip on good ground at Leopardstown; little wrong with stable debut third over 1m4f at Bellewstown (second touched off since); 2lb wrong matters little and front-runner is a player.
