She has progressed very well in her hurdling career, attaining a Grade 1-placing in April 2023 and ran well behind Teahupoo at the recent Punchestown festival. She was well held on her two most recent flat runs last October but they were pipe-opening seasonal reappearance runs and prior to that, had won on the flat in October 2022. Sceptred Isle has shown nice improvement recently but is 11lb higher than when winning at Tipperary recently.
