2-44; well held by the winner when twice runner-up last month and finishing effort at Bath last time (extended 1m3f) was underwhelming; others are of greater interest for win purposes.

Back in form since returned to cheekpieces of late, latterly when beaten a nose by Belle Of Kt at Bath a fortnight ago; 6lb better off with her old rival and her last win came round here off 3lb higher, so there are reasons for optimism.

Form & Verdict
Not many positives to take from her first three runs at about 1m but consequently goes handicapping at a lowly level and she's entitled to show more over this longer trip (sire won the Arc); back from a break and the market could be informative.

Creditable third at Southwell (1m3f) last month but he's not easy to predict and was beaten 8l at Wolverhampton (1m4f) last time; needs to bounce back and will need a good pace back at this trip; tongue-tie removed.
