Form & Verdict
Progressive filly who bids for a hat-trick after winning a Windsor maiden (5f, good to firm; runner-up won next time) and a Lingfield novice (6f, good to firm) last month; more to do under her double penalty and draw not ideal, but further progress may still be forthcoming; should be fine back over 5f on a stiff track and looks the one to beat.

Unraced on soft/heavy; produced form figures of 2112 at maiden/novice level, mostly over 5f; stretched by 6f at Chepstow (handicap debut) when last seen; respected back down in trip and wearing first-time headgear; trainer has won the last two runnings of this race.

Had shown ability prior to narrowly making it fourth-time lucky in a Catterick maiden (6f, good) six days ago; a player on form, though returning to 5f may not be ideal even on a stiff track.
