Eleven turf wins, mostly at Hamilton but once over C&D, on ground ranging from soft to good to firm; weighted to find another race and will be suited by returning to a track with a stiff finish following her persevering fourth at Ayr 13 days ago; thereabouts.

Record of 0-9 this season but she's much better off with Jannas Journey on C&D running four starts ago; successful off higher marks in this race for the last two years; very attractively weighted and warrants respect.

Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Major improver since handicapping, doing well on good or faster last season and proving even more adept on soft ground this year; latest Thirsk success (6f, soft) was her third win from four runs this year, one of them a defeat of Slainte Mhath, who she's now 7lb better off with, at Thirsk; major player.

5-15 on turf, with three of the wins coming over C&D; well suited by slow ground; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark and she wasn't at her best with conditions to suit six weeks ago.

Gives her all and wasn't beaten far when fourth to Rock Melody over C&D (soft) in August; should be thereabouts again, although she holds no secrets from the handicapper and others appeal more for win purposes.

Very consistent in defeat earlier in the season (on ground ranging from good through to heavy) and she was beaten just over 1l when fourth of six over C&D (good to soft) last time; has won three times over C&D and every chance she'll be in the mix; the blinkers adopted last time are left off.
