She is a very tough filly and seems to handle any kind of ground. She will go a bit further. I'm not sure what happened her at Leopardstown, the ground was loose and sloppy there and she just didn't pick up (5th there in June). She is a very straightforward filly and has a good pedigree. There is a good programme of races here in Ireland for her and she might go for the Blandford Stakes. She could also go for a race in the US in the autumn. David Wachman, trainer
