Resumed her progress back on AW last twice, collared only late on by the reopposing Oh So Grand over C&D last time; seemed to look about a bit on hitting the front so it's possible today's first-time cheekpieces will help with her focus and she's 4lb better off with her old rival.

Much-improved filly since cheekpieces were added last month, winning four in a row (all 1m) before losing out only by a short head at Chepstow (1m, good to soft) a week ago; another 3lb higher here but the likely quicker ground won't be a problem and she might still be on the upgrade.
