C&D winner on her nursery debut last September; struggled in 2023, including when well beaten in a selling handicap at Thirsk four weeks ago, and new headgear not enough to tempt.

In the frame in eight consecutive starts between July 2022 and August last year, including three here (6f/7f), but seems to have gone off the boil (well held in both outings for this yard); now 0-16 and best to look elsewhere.

15-race maiden who was below par on her final few runs for Grant Tuer and it was the same story on her recent stable debut at Catterick; however, it wasn't a bad performance last time, she could build on it today, and she's well handicapped on the pick of last summer's efforts; possibilities.

Good second from a wide draw on nursery debut at Beverley (5f, good to firm) and perhaps softer ground was no help when backing out of it late on at Musselburgh; bit to prove at 6f and now hooded, but not ruled out.

Some of last summer's form would give her strong claims at this level and there was a bit more encouragement from her at Southwell on Wednesday, albeit in a weak race; not out of this if she can build on that.

Five times a winner on turf and she lurks on a dangerous mark; ran well for second behind Eldeyaar over C&D on her reappearance last month (not the quickest away) and she did well when only fourth behind Run This Way at Redcar nine days ago having completely blown the start; should be involved if breaking on terms but that 'if' is substantial enough to prompt some caution.
