Two sprint wins this year, including C&D, and she's now 1lb lower than for the second of them; needs to bounce back from two lesser runs though.

Raised 11lb after winning twice over 5f on Tapeta in January, including here; has suggested this sort of mark may not be beyond her, but her stamina remains in doubt and she is exposed after 14 starts.

Latest effort is best ignored, with it all going wrong at the start (also said to have been showing signs of coming into season); she can be buzzy anyway and this is tougher than the Brighton handicaps she's been contesting.

Has finished third in three of her four runs including on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW; 100-30) last month; has taken a strong hold at times and this unexposed filly could find more on this drop to 5f; in the mix.

Form & Verdict
Chelmsford novice winner (6f, Polytrack) last September and her third of six on reappearance here (7f) last month was a fair effort, but she was well held at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) a week ago; cheekpieces worn then are quickly removed and she has possibilities on her best form.
