Has raced mostly in Group and Listed races this year but she should have a future in handicaps, having done well to finish as close as she did on the unfavoured side, after serious interference, in the Sandringham at the Royal meeting (1m, good to firm); has since run well in Listed company (first-time tongue-tie latest, retained) and well worth considering.

Dual AW winner who is 0-13 on turf, but she returned from a break with a near-miss at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; only 1lb higher here and is a big player if she can back that up.
