Low-mileage 5yo who has form figures of 12531 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently seeing off nine rivals at Carlisle (7f) in June; has a likeable profile for this grade but the wins have been achieved on good to soft/soft and she needs to prove she's as effective on today's likely much faster ground.
