Form & Verdict
Won her only 2yo start (1m, heavy) and she's been a quiet improver in defeat since; latest start was handicap at Sandown (1m6f, good; 33-1) in which she finished on the heels of the winner Synergism and saw the trip out well; off an unchanged mark, she may well be in the argument.

Won on heavy last year on debut and took a soft-ground handicap at Ffos Las (1m6f) in June; all her other races were on less testing ground, running creditably in further 1m6f handicaps on good to soft on last two starts; kept hanging left here on latest and cheekpieces are now enlisted; today's forecast return to the mud has to boost interest in her.

Fair form over about 1m4f on last three starts, probably best when making most at Musselburgh (good to soft) on penultimate outing; ran creditably in cheekpieces latest and they are retained; needs improvement on this handicap debut over new trip but he's not ruled out.

Improver on turf in May/June, badly hampered on his latest turf start (probably acts on soft); has hit substantially greater heights over 2m on AW since, making up plenty of ground when a close second on Newcastle AW last time; that run makes him look one of the best handicapped in this race and this 3yo could still have more improvement in him.
