Form & Verdict
Was having her second run for the yard when beaten a head dropped to this level over C&D last month (three of these behind), but finished adrift of Kraken Florida and Mutabaahy when fourth of six back here six days later; tongue-tie given a go this time and each-way claims on that penultimate effort.

Sole win (from 24 attempts) came back in March 2021 and this summer's turf form for Iain Jardine has been patchy; however, she's on a competitive mark judged on C&D exploits earlier this year and the return to this course for her stable debut could be a positive; not ruled out.

Narrowly off the mark in a similar event over C&D in January and creditable efforts since, as when third of 11 in a 0-55 handicap here (7f) eight days ago (just over 2l behind Elisheva); would have finished closer with a clearer run and shouldn't be far away again.
