Regularly placed as a 2yo but she ended that campaign with two lacklustre efforts and was again well short of her best when sixth of seven at Windsor on her return to action this month; something to prove for now.

Runner-up in five of her nine starts as a 2yo, showing her best form over 5f on fast ground; wore headgear for final four starts in 2022 and goes without today; good claims if at her best but vulnerable to an improver.

Improved to win on heavy ground at Ffos Las returned to turf in August after four-month break (first run for the yard) and matched that effort on a sound surface at Goodwood last time; likely to go well.

Won twice over 5f at Ripon in 2024 but last year was a struggle and he was beaten 11l on his Redcar reappearance (6f, good) 12 days ago; now drops back in trip but he has lots to prove and needs a major revival.
