Handy type over 6f on turf and AW who was winning for the third time this year when getting to the front inside the final furlong over this C&D two weeks ago; up 4lb but she doesn't give much away with her late finishes and it's possible she isn't done with from a handicapping viewpoint.

Ran just once at two and firmly on the upgrade this season, leading late on to win at York in mid-June (6f, good; unraced on firmer) in her second handicap; that narrow verdict was a blessing as she's only 2lb higher; would appreciate some give in the ground, according to her trainer, but dangerously unexposed if conditions are suitable.

Third to Beautiful Diamond over 5.5f here (soft) in September on her final run for Mark Usher; low-key start for Ralph Beckett but she bounced back to form at York (6f, good) eight days ago, blowing the start but making a big mid-race move before weakening into fourth close home; shaped like the best horse in that race and perhaps has a stronger chance than her rating might indicate.

More than just not handling the track was amiss when she was last on her recent return at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); however, this lightly raced 4yo showed improved form when tackling soft ground at Ayr last September, finishing third in that 5.5f Listed race; not discounted back on slow ground.

Strong 6f form in October when last seen, gaining her comfortable maiden win at the chief expense of a subsequent scorer (Zooming) then running well in Listed grade at Newmarket where she was only one place behind Azleet who landed the Nell Gwyn on Wednesday; worth another crack at 7f and probably has a better chance than bare ratings suggest.
