Scored readily at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft; off 6lb lower) in May; lost her unbeaten record at that track on latest outing but that respectable fifth was still her best other effort this season; this trip possibly stretches her.

Form & Verdict
Fair Flat-racer; struggled over hurdles this winter but went close off this mark on turf last September and won on AW earlier in her career so she's dangerous to dismiss back on the level after wind surgery.

Consistent form in defeat on Flat this April-June (1-18 overall in that sphere); 0-11 over hurdles, well treated on some of her placed form in the 2021-22 campaign but below form on latest four attempts, including on latest outing; steps up from 2m with stamina in major doubt.

Placed in two handicaps (1m/1m2f) since winning her maiden at Wolverhampton and, with no excuses from the front last time, she is looking handicapped about right; return to turf also poses some nagging doubts, but on the plus side she would appear in better form than most of these.

Emphatic winner of this race 12 months ago and followed up on her return the following month; those wins were off 2lb and 8lb higher marks respectively so handicapped to threaten if able to rediscover some form with the headgear (sported for last three runs) now removed.

Triple C&D winner who was a clear second back at this track (1m2f, good to soft; second-time visor) two weeks ago; that was behind a handicap blot who has won again since and this return to fast ground is no problem; dangerous with cheekpieces now tried.
