Form & Verdict
Only one win in 34 runs and that was over 7f at Catterick in 2020 (soft); below par after missing the break last time, but some sound efforts prior to that this season, including a good second in a C&D handicap (good to firm) last month; could go well again.

T: John Wainwright

Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground; never involved on her C&D reappearance last month, but she should be sharper this time and is now 11lb lower than for her win here last summer; could be dangerous if she gets a good pace and some luck.

Less exposed than most of these and may have needed the run when sixth of nine after a break at Lingfield last week (1m2f, AW); no headgear today (has worn a visor or cheekpieces on last seven starts) and hard to know what to expect on her turf debut.
