Thorough stayer who battled on for modest third in 2m4f handicap at Glorious Goodwood (soft) in August but then ran as though something was amiss in last month's Doncaster Cup; even if back on song, she might be a shade vulnerable back at 1m6f on drying ground here.

Third win last term was in a slowly run 2m2f conditions stakes at Pontefract (soft) in October in tidy style; respectable, never-dangerous third in a handicap at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f) on reappearance but, despite being markedly better off at the weights, she clearly needs to improve upon that if she's to turn the tables on easy winner Kyle Of Lochalsh.
