Her wins after breaks of three months and four months are a positive as she returns from a layoff; resumes on a career-high mark, though, having closed out last year with a second on Tapeta, and she'll need to be spot on to win this; may be the one to lead.

Form & Verdict
Long time since she raced on softer than good but she used to be fine on it, also over longer trips than this although she's seen mostly these days at 1m; both wins were 1m last July; back down the weights but she showed enough initially this term to be of interest; not so good on latest outing.

Bit of a mixed bag these days but there was another AW win (1m2f here) in April in first-time blinkers, which have been kept since, and she was beaten a neck on Wolverhampton AW (9.4f) on latest outing; had a soft-ground win in 2023 but that's her standout performance from six runs on turf.
