Well handicapped on her best 2yo form but she's finished down the field in four runs this season, including when last of four at Hamilton (1m3f, good) last week; cheekpieces are now added and she needs to raise her game back in trip.

Went close in first-time blinkers on nursery debut last September (1m, good), then flopped on soft ground; back on song with good second in first-time cheekpieces on reappearance at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last month and this 3yo is a contender if the headgear maintains its positive effect.
