Still a maiden after 12 starts but she went very close last time out without quite managing to get her head in front. Should continue to progress and likely this mark will prove lenient.

Most of her recent form has come with cut, and she wasn't beaten too far when fourth to Soul Season in a Wexford handicap in early June, before fifth of 14, beaten 15L in Wexford maiden hurdle last week.

Forecasts

Delayed Eloquence (11/10), Blixt (15/8), Field Robin (9/2), Field Exhibition (14/1), Outta The West (16/1), Tara Mia (66/1), Beech Hill (66/1)

Verdict

The Willie Mullins-trained BLIXT has been know to set the fractions and can do the same here under Patrick Mullins. The selection was staying on well in the closing stages, at Clonmel, but returned to old ways last day, beaten 16L, fourth of 11 here in bumper. Field Robin has been regressing of late, but is still better than a few of these, and along with, Delayed Eloquence can fill the places.
