Returned to winning form over C&D in January and had genuine excuses for two of her three defeats in the meantime; beaten just a short head and a neck into third of 11 in the Fillies and Mares Trial here in between those efforts with two of these behind; leading player.

Ran okay in a hot race over C&D last month and duly built on that when winning by a cosy neck 12 days ago (also C&D); major claims off 3lb higher; a positive showing from Waistcoat, who he beat last time, in the 6.40 would increase confidence.
