Had just one start in a Cork two-year-old maiden over 1m for previous stable in September 2015., before return in March when second of 14 at 33/1 in Gowran Park maiden hurdle.
By the sire, Shirocco, outstanding 11-12f performer, dual purpose; made good start with jumpers inc Annie Power. Best watched on debut for out of form yard.
Returned to action at Roscommon in May and won a beginners chase (2m½f, good) in nice style, before eighth of 11, beaten 38L in Wexford handicap chase over 2m in the same month. Flat debut here.
Fourth in a handicap chase over 2m4f at the Cheltenham Festival in March, beaten just over 6L in 1m7f Leopardstown maiden on first Flat start, finishing third of 15, before another third at Ballinrobe over 1m5f when the winner Miss Mardan, runner-up High Haven and Powersbomb all went past together.
Close second in 2m hurdles contest at Wexford in June, disappointing on the AW at Dundalk in December. Best watched.
Seven-race National Hunt maiden, off the track since September, before slowly away, no impression and disqualified when jockey weighed in light on Flat debut.
Cost €10,000 as a two-year-old at the breeze up sales in France in 2015. Sixth of 11, beaten 17+L on debut in Stratford bumper, under champion jockey, Richard Johnson.
Filly by Sea The Stars, encouraging on two starts last season for Kevin Predergast, before moving to new yard nd finishing third of eight beaten 2½L behind Pearl Of The West at Gowran Park on Tuesday.
Showed good promise on debut at Navan (1m, good) in August last year, didn't build on it two further runs, before third of eight, beaten 4¾L in Naas maiden on return from a layoff.
Filly appeared to have her issues last year, running disappointingly in a trio of maidens with break in between. Last to finish in the Munster Oaks at Cork on return to action, a prize that seemed ambitious.
No impression and well beaten in three maiden last year and best watched on return following 254 day lay off.
Lightly-raced maiden has shown some promise, will have needed recent return to action at Gowran Park, but has had another 35 day lay-off. Has never run beyond 1m2f.

Powersbomb (11/10), Flaming Sea (5/2), Newcross (10/3), Secret Splendour (6/1), Like A Star (12/1), Runyon Rattler (14/1), Kissing Bubbles (16/1), Great Trango (22/1), Patricks Park (28/1), Kelter's Dawn (33/1), Whatdoes Jack Say (50/1), Musical Jewel (50/1), Clementina (50/1), Divin Desir (80/1)
Runyon Rattler, close second in 2m hurdles contest at Wexford in June, has lead in the past and if Robbie Cleary judges the fractions right he could have a few of these in trouble. Like A Star, last to finish in the Munster Oaks at Cork on return to action will look to improve on her last run along with Secret Splendour.
The pace set, could set the race up for POWERSBOMB, third at Ballinrobe over 1m5f when the winner Miss Mardan, runner-up High Haven and the selection, all went past together.
