After race at Downpatrick Fri, 24th May, 2024 (1st)
She's on the go a long time. . She was to run in the autumn and it went from very quick to very soft overnight and she didn't actually get to run. . She went down to Cork after Christmas and was in the parade ring when the meeting was abandoned with wind and rain. . She went to Tyrella then and didn't jump well for whatever reason and made hard work of what she shouldn't have made hard work of. . Then she was to go to Cork and here, and Cork was heavy and this was abandoned. Then the Down Royal race was a stronger race than this and she needed the run. She came on nicely for it. For a big mare, she flew around here for whatever reason. She was second in this last year when only a five-year-old.
