Admirable 6yo who has won eight of her 52 starts (including on soft); however, she goes up in grade this afternoon and would be a shock winner.

As good as ever as a 6yo judged on her near miss at Lingfield (7f, AW); latest Newmarket third probably not the run to judge her on and she can't be ruled out, for all stall 1 isn't ideal.

Inconsistent on AW this year but she was short-headed at Lingfield (7f) in February and denied a clear run when third at Southwell (6f) last time; has won here and she might not be far away if she's on a going day.

Form & Verdict
Fine record over C&D, winning four times since joining Gemma Tutty last October; nicely backed when beating male opposition 18 days ago and a 2lb rise is fair; strong claims but with the caveat that she wouldn't want a dawdle early.

Weighted to go well on best turf form and the drying ground shouldn't cause her any grief, having run so well on good to firm at York (6f) last June; also a winner of her one C&D start, in 2023, and the booking of Billy Loughnane signals intent; has prospects despite lacking a recent run.

Backwards since winning at Musselburgh (5f, Class 6, good) in August; kept on from behind to finish fifth of ten at Southwell (5f; 33-1) a fortnight ago; the handicapper continues to give her assistance from a career-low mark.

Form & Verdict
Two 6f wins for Ivan Furtado, one of them here, and she's still relatively low mileage; first run back from a wind op may have been needed; has joined a new yard (same owner) since and she's a sprinter of interest; worth a market check in relation to stablemate Powdering.

Stays 1m and has won over 7f but better known for her 5f exploits and she has only run twice over 6f since October 2021; this represents an ease in grade but she could perhaps do with more help from the handicapper.
