Form & Verdict
Green when fourth behind last weekend's Goodwood winner Ferrous on her Doncaster debut (6f, heavy) and ten days later she left that form adrift to win well at Newcastle (6f, AW); that wasn't a great race but there's no doubt a lot more to come from her.

Won Windsor novice (6f, good to firm) last May and spell of improved form on AW culminated in 7f Listed win at Wolverhampton this March; she may have needed last month's return to action at York and it's too soon to label her an AW specialist, but she has to leave that latest effort well behind.

Improved form at 7f on AW over the winter once tongue-tie was fitted, until running flat in March; no strong evidence she needs artificial surfaces to show her best, having looked promising when winning a 6f novice at Windsor in May 2023; back from a break but she's still of interest.

Three wins and two seconds from her five AW starts, most recently a smooth Listed success at Wolverhampton (7f); wasn't as well positioned as Shades Of Summer when second to that rival here on New Year's Day and she's weighted to turn the tables; this is a high-profile ride for 7lb claimer Jack Enright but he's won on her already and she has plenty in her favour.
