Form & Verdict
Six-race maiden; a slow burner, but she's shown enough at Redcar (fifth), and Kempton (third) more recently, to suggest that she can be competitive against this calibre of opposition; the retained blinkers and an easing mark place her at the top of the list.

Signed off for Ed Dunlop with respectable fifth of 15 at Nottingham (8.3f, good; visored) in April but was always behind on recent stable debut (1m, AW; no headgear) and it's hard to know what to expect from her over this new trip; blinkers refitted.
