Improved effort in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when third of ten at Lingfield (11.5f, good to firm) one month ago; that was just her fifth start and she's one of few legitimate threats to Sarangpur.

Debut (7f on Chelmsford AW) has seemingly been better than what's followed; only fifth of six on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, AW; 10-1) last time but there's stamina on the dam's side.
