Sole win (from 23 attempts) came in AW classified in January; however, she's run well off this mark in turf handicaps on her last four starts (5f/6f, good/good to firm) and there's every chance she'll be bang there.

1-22; third to a stablemate of Classy Clarets over 5f here (12-1) on penultimate start, and better than the bare form suggests - switched left to make solid late headway - when fourth to Classy Clarets at Hamilton (5f apprentices') on Friday evening; 6f looks ideal; player.

Found traffic a couple of times since winning a selling handicap off 3lb lower in the first-time visor in June (all 5f, Hamilton); shouldn't mind going back up to 6f for a trainer also responsible for Ramon Di Loria.
