Had been threatening for a while before winning for Taryn Langley over 7f here, back in the cheekpieces, off 4lb lower 11 days ago; there's little wiggle room off this mark but the extra furlong's fine round a course she likes, and she's a player.

Largely consistent mare who was placed over 1m here (good to firm) last month and went down fighting when very close second to Romanovich over C&D (good) a fortnight later; wears headgear for first time since 2023; likely to make her presence felt again.

None too consistent but she's slipped to a basement mark and there was more encouragement to be gleaned when a close fourth at Nottingham last month (first-time cheekpieces, retained); 11lb lower than for her Yarmouth win 13 months ago so needs a second look.

Second in a 1m Kempton novice when trained by Sir Mark Todd; last month's handicap/stable debut wasn't too bad, making some ground up in the straight before her effort petered out, and she could be sharper with that behind her; still capable of better.
