Three wins at Kempton (7f/1m) for Des Donovan last spring; has had only three runs for current yard and she's reached the frame at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Southwell (1m3f) in last two starts; now tackles another new trip but has claims if her stamina holds out.

She has been stepped up in trip by her current stable and it paid dividends with a 1m4f win at Wolverhampton in February; she has finished second in three of her five runs since, including upped to 1m6f at Salisbury eight days ago, and she should give it another good go back at 1m2f.
