Commentary

Shaped well in face of strong support when ½-length second of 16 in handicap at Ballinrobe (23f, good) in August. Disappointed at Galway 4 weeks later but said to have returned with wounds on both her left and right fore so can probably have that effort ignored. Player on the Ballinrobe form.
