A well-held third in this 12 months ago after winning a Listed race at Doncaster, in which she was no match for a subsequent Group 2 winner in this year's renewal; could strip fitter for that outing and a repeat of last year's peak efforts in a Group 3 at Epsom and the Group 1 Falmouth wouldn't see her far away; dangerous to pass over.

Seven of her eight wins have come on the AW; probably in better form than recent form-figures might suggest (unseated rider leaving stalls two runs ago, met trouble in running on latest) and recent rain brings her into the reckoning.
