Well short of her best this winter but that is reflected in her mark and she has too much ability to discount now dropping into a 0-60; betting should be revealing.

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
A three-time C&D scorer but she's not the most reliable and beat only one in 5f Ayr handicap 18 days ago; she's not ruled out though if back on her A-game.

Got involved too soon in the strongly run C&D race won by Ski Angel last time; inconsistent this term but is attractively treated (last two wins off 16lb higher).

Effective on fast ground but all five wins have been on good or slower including three over C&D; 0-10 this season but he travelled well for a long way when third off this reduced mark at Hamilton ten days ago; usually races prominently and he could make another bold bid back at this track.

Form & Verdict
Opened his account for 2025 at Hamilton (5f) in July but only seventh of 12 at Ayr (6f) 11 days ago; turned out quickly there so this C&D scorer could easily bounce back.
