Has shown improved form in a couple of 6f contests (maiden/handicap) since switched to AW, while shaping as if this drop back to 5f will prove ideal; still unexposed and is one to consider.

Off the mark at the fifth attempt when justifying favouritism in a C&D handicap last month; was held back over 6f here last time but was only beaten 1l behind an improver and she could kick on again on her drop back to this trip; respected.

70,000euros breeze-up purchase who was below market expectations on her debut; much better with the switch from soft to Tapeta last month and that gave something to build on now handicapping.

Won a weak maiden on turf last June on final start for John Butler; only midfield in a couple of AW handicaps for new yard; needs improvement for the fitting of a tongue-tie and hood.

Has proved fairly consistent at maiden/novice level while leaving the impression this drop to 5f will suit; however, doesn't appear to have a generous mark on handicap debut.
