Seemed to take quite a step forward when beaten just under 10l into third at Taunton (soft) where Diva B was well behind; has a fair jumping pedigree and she's entitled to improve some more.

Won a Hereford juvenile hurdle (2m, soft) in April 2024 and made a bright start to handicaps when second at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) after a break in January, though a lesser effort followed; drops back in trip now returning from a break and isn't yet fully exposed; interesting contender.

Clear improvement over her four starts, romping clear by 7l from Rockola at Hereford (2m, soft) in April on latest; has stamina in the pedigree and this step up in trip looks interesting on handicap debut.

One blip over 3m1f aside she's held her form fine since the winter's Southwell and Huntingdon successes, a refusal to settle just finding her out late at Fontwell latest (2m6f, good); no margin for error following a 2lb rise for not winning that, however.
