3 yo Filly

Form & Verdict
Has run well in two of her three handicaps and she justified favouritism back in a maiden over 1m at Kempton (AW; second won since); would appear to have little room to manoeuvre off this mark but is effective with give underfoot and running better than most; respected.

0-6 but she's been generally progressive and has recorded RPRs in the 80s in her last two runs (handicaps); ran well for a long way when third at Sandown (1m2f) last time and that was after a strong-finishing fourth over C&D in June; this is competitive back in a maiden but she's respected for in-form yard.

J: Benoit De La Sayette

T: Charlie Fellowes

Promise when making the frame in 1m maiden/novice events on soft turf and AW last autumn; her first two efforts this term were a little disappointing but she got her career back on track when fourth in 1m Kempton handicap two months ago; the way she kept on from the rear on that occasion suggests this return to 1m2f should suit; retains potential.

Reached the frame twice in similar races on AW under Brodie Hampson in February; well treated on those efforts but hasn't found the same form back on turf (good to firm/good) after a break, including well behind Star Start and Austrian Theory at Catterick 17 days ago; the return to softer ground could help but leap of faith needed.

Patchy form since joining this yard and well behind I'd Go Maniac on his return from five months off at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago, but is 9lb lower than when winning at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) for Ian Williams a year ago; first-time tongue-tie.

Form & Verdict
Admirably consistent in handicaps but maybe anchored by a 5lb rise when coming up short when raised to 1m2f at Chester; perhaps 1m is ideal and, although now high in the weights, he should be in the thick of it.
