4 yo Filly

OR: 80

Form & Verdict
Has rather lacked consistency but her sole attempt in a turf handicap resulted in Redcar win (7f, soft) last autumn; interesting back in this scenario, especially as Christian Howarth takes off a handy 5lb.

Capable at the right level and she ran right up to her best when a close third at Kempton 18 days ago (6f), not aiding her cause by hanging left in the closing stages; good chance if she can keep straighter this time.

Bounced right back to form at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) last month, scoring narrowly; should remain competitive off just 1lb higher, provided she takes well to first-time headgear.

She hasn't kicked on from her promising stable debut at Kempton in April but she's now 9lb lower and a two-month break could have freshened her up; one to take seriously.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark at Nottingham on stable/seasonal debut and went close at Goodwood next time; lesser effort (again over 6f) since but may be ready for this step up to 7f; remains of interest.

Made a successful stable/handicap debut after six months off at Nottingham (6f, good) in May, but her form regressed subsequently; needs the switch to Polytrack and first-time blinkers to bring about a resurgence.

Successful stable/handicap debut at Nottingham (6f, good) in May after six months off but lightly raced since; far from disgraced on first 7f attempt when sixth of 19 at York (good to soft) last month but slower conditions pose another question; cheekpieces on (has worn a hood).

Didn't live up to market expectations in similar event at Goodwood (1m) two weeks ago but consistent on turf otherwise this term and could well bounce back; still nicely treated and she's suited by slow ground.
