Right back on her game when fourth over hurdles at Galway in July. May have found race coming too soon back on the level 2 weeks later but given a short break since. Engaged 5.30 Curragh Sunday. RESERVE.

What the projection says

Edging ahead of its price lately — not a standalone signal; it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 12th of 15. Recent form is easing off.
