Sole win was off 6lb lower at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in July; runner-up three times since then but she didn't fire in her final run for Jack Channon last month; that took her record to 1-17 and has a bit to prove again for new yard.

Record of 1-16 but her win was at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in July and she's finished runner-up in three of her four runs since; this is a deeper race than at Lingfield last time but she should go well again off same mark.
