0-7 since winning on debut at Southwell (5f, AW) in April; didn't run badly when fourth in nursery at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last time but didn't pose a threat and needs to raise her game this afternoon.

Form & Verdict
Hasn't looked straightforward but clear promise in her three runs in novice and maiden company, recording her best RPR when beaten a head on debut (6f, good to firm); slower ground to contend with but she makes her nursery debut at a suitable level.

Gained her breakthrough when dropped to 6f (from 8.3f) at Newmarket (good to firm) in June and ran at least as well when running-on third at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month; slightly disappointing on latest outing but still considered on this move back up to 7f.

All runs over 6f; built on her eyecatching first run at Windsor with a narrow win at Southwell; it was always going to be tough in a sales race last time and she ran okay from a modest draw; Rossa Ryan booked for nursery debut; slower than good would be a query.

The drop to 6f and fitting of cheekpieces saw her return to form at Goodwood (soft ground) in June, seeing off eight rivals in a 0-70 fillies' handicap; not in the same form at Lingfield (AW) seven weeks ago; needs a full revival.

Confirmed the promise of her Newbury debut by winning a fillies' maiden at Windsor in July (6f, good); similar form when fourth under a penalty at Lingfield last month (5f, AW); further improvement required now handicapping but that is not out of the question.
