Form & Verdict
Modest form for Clive Cox but plenty to like about the way she came home in a 1m handicap on her stable debut last week; takes a considerable step up in trip here but she is in very shrewd hands and this could not be a more ordinary race.

Maiden prior to racking up solid results (2112) over 1m on Polytrack for new stable, running well at Chelmsford most recently; possibly hasn't reached her ceiling yet; major player provided she's as effective back on Tapeta (second attempt).
