6f course win as a 2yo; added a 1m handicap at Newcastle last October and there have been some near misses on AW this year too; not beaten far into fifth at Thirsk on Saturday on her return to Class 5 level; well drawn but slower than good would be a concern.

Yard not noted for newcomers, so pleasing to see her fare so well on debut in early summer (1m); below that level on soft going next time (1m2f) but burst a blood vessel and retains potential back from three months off, albeit maybe in handicaps after this.

The cheekpieces were working well until below par at Thirsk where she reportedly ran flat; has to bounce back from that and has a bit to prove on the AW (0-4).

Beverley fillies' maiden winner (7.5f, good to firm; 8-1) in August 2024; could strip fitter for recent Newcastle run (1m; last of six) which came after 166 days off; easing mark, plus the presence of a 7lb claimer, means she merits a market check.
