All three wins have been at 1m2f and, although she has run well at 1m3f, this far might be a stretch; if she did last out then would have a chance in current form on ground she handles; Arron D'Arcy's claim eases her career-high mark.

Ran well for close second over 8.6f at Wolverhampton in December; beaten favourite twice since but there have been possible excuses, as he likely did too much too soon over 9.4f back there on the first occasion and his rider lost an iron at the start (not regained for a number of strides) over C&D since; withdrawn from an intended start last month after refusing to go in the stalls; the Wolverhampton second is solid form and he might be worth another chance.
