Form & Verdict
Hindered by a slow start at Ascot on debut, then broke cleanly and duly improved at Yarmouth where she finished a clear second; both runs at 6f; sets the form standard on latest effort and she's bred to do better still (related to several winners for her stable); respected.

In familiar territory having raced over C&D in both starts, finishing sixth in May (for Joseph Tuite) then improving to record a narrow win this month; faces a tougher task under a penalty, even allowing that Rhys Clutterbuck takes off 3lb, but further progress is not out of the question.
