Maiden after 13 starts including two over hurdles. Well held at Down Royal, but improved run last day under today's jockey in Limerick maiden hurdle.
Not much to glean from an inauspicious start over C&D earlier this month and is best watch just for the time being.
Signs of ability in two bumper outings in the summer of 2015. Latest of those came over 2m3f here. 15th of 16, beaten 36L on return following two year lay-off.
Second on last two starts, under today rider, when beaten a total of 1¾L in Downpatrick maiden hurdle over 2m3f. Lack has to change soon.
Only a modicum of promise to be taken from her three efforts in bumpers so far. Well beaten on hurdles debut in Tipperary maiden over 2m4f last month.
No impression 2f out, kept on one pace on debut in Galway bumper when last seen 335 days ago in September.
One win from 16 starts and all her best form is on the AW. Struggled after missing the break on her return to turf last time. Best watched on National Hunt debut.
Successful in a Down Royal bumper on good ground last August. Fair effort when fifth at Cork (good) in May but well held sixth at Punchestown, before an encouraging second of 16, beaten 4L in Limerick maiden hurdle under today's rider. Up 4lb for that run.
Steadily improving during the season in three starts. Promising second of 20, not beaten far in Gowran Park maiden over 2m4f in June.
Decent effort against Gaga's Horse in May at Limerick when 10L third of seven, followed by a ½L win at Clonmel in June, before fourth of six last day. Hurdling debut.
Royal Anthem mare out of a 13 race maiden (including four attempts over hurdles). Eighth of nine beaten 89L on hurdling debut in Naas maiden on soft/heavy ground over 2m3f.
Ran on well to land a mares-only bumper at Tramore in June, since been held on hurdles bow over 2m4f at Gowran Park, before better run last day at Killarney over 2m6f.
No impression in moderate 6th under 3f out, kept on one pace to finish 10th of 18, well beaten at Clonmel over extended 2m.
10th of 20, beaten 45L on hurdling debut in Gowran Park maiden, before a promising sixth of 24 in maiden hurdle here over 2m in July.
Kept on one pace from over 1f out, to finish ninth of 16 on second bumper start, following heavy defeat on debut at Tramore.
Well held in two bumpers so far this year most recently when 23L sixth of nine at Bellewstown last month, before sixth of 12 last day in Limerick bumper over 2m.
By Canford Cliffs, 42L behind the winner, Father Mattie on hurdling debut in Sligo maiden over extended 2m on good ground last month.
Unraced daughter of Yeats, exceptional stayer, four-time Ascot Gold Cup winner, also 1m winner at 2; promising jumps sire. Stable not having a great time, one from 39 in the last two weeks.
Interesting unraced filly by Mahler, who won 2m Queen's Vase and 3rd Melbourne Cup as 3yo; good start with early jumps progeny.
Sire, Gold Well, unraced brother to Montjeu, dual-purpose sire; promising start with few jumpers including Holywell, Johns Spirit and Sausalito Sunrise. Disappointing on debut at Limerick and quick return paid no dividends five days later when well beaten here last month.
Big Bad Bob close relative of Gold Cup winner Bobs Worth, and in-form yard enjoys plenty of success in this sphere. Cost €32,000 as a yearling.
Well beaten in three bumpers in Ireland including at Clonmel and showed nothing on hurdling debut at Limerick in July.
Unraced daughter of Scorpion, top-class mid-distance performer at 3-5, family of Ardross. Closely related to to Grade 1 winners Don't Touch It and Might Bite.

Forecasts
Delayed Eloquence (15/8), Lakemilan (5/2), Theatre Dreams (5/1), Payngo (8/1), Like An Open Book (8/1), Joy's Gift (8/1), Amarillo Rose (14/1), Nicandra (25/1), Feeling The Love (25/1), Peggy's Acre (25/1), Harrys Gift (33/1), Slainte And Thanks (33/1), Empors Sword (33/1), The Rap Queen (33/1), Pocket Dial (33/1), Jessamine (50/1), Its Only Me (50/1), Aimee Kate (50/1), Aurellia (50/1), Mallwood (66/1), Presenting Champ (66/1), Bon Courage (66/1), Illchanceit (100/1), Betty's Lane Star (100/1)
This will be probably left to Theatre Dreams to take the field along here, and will possibly have a few of these in trouble just after half-way, if not before. Amarillo Rose, Delayed Eloquence and Payngo, will be following the pace. While it will be interesting to gauge the performance of Pocket Dial, Joy's Gift, encouraging second of 16, beaten 4L in Limerick maiden hurdle under today's rider and Lakemilan, promising second of 20, not beaten far in Gowran Park maiden over 2m4f in June, can make the frame, preference is for DELAYED ELOQUENCE.

- Lakemilan
