Form & Verdict
April foal by Soldier's Call; weak 17-2 shot on her Southwell debut (AW) two weeks ago but she ran into some trouble before finishing well for second behind a rival who got first run; that was a promising start and she should improve for the experience.

Poorly drawn when down the field over C&D when last seen in October; prior to that she had won well in first-time blinkers at Redcar and she remains of interest from a handicapping perspective.

Responded well to the fitting of blinkers when winning her first handicap at Redcar (5f, good) eight days ago; 3lb rise fair enough and she has run well on Tapeta, but has been handed a duff draw.

Wouldn't settle on her final start for Richard Hughes, so any benefits of the preceding wind surgery remain undetermined; sold for 14,000gns since; out of a 7.5f winner, but hasn't shaped as if in need of further than sprint trips this term.
