Has improved since stepping up in trip, winning at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in July and at Ripon (1m4f, good) last month, but she was reportedly unsuited by the soft ground at the former track two weeks ago; her best chance would be if the ground was good or quicker.

She has improved as her stamina has been more fully tested, getting off the mark here (1m3f, good) in July and adding a 1m4f win at Ripon 18 days ago; today's trip could unlock further progress and she's of obvious interest.
