Her last three wins have come over C&D and latest was last March; well handicapped on that form but she's finished down the field here in her last five runs and needs a major revival after wind surgery.

0-8 but came closest to winning when beaten a neck by Jenny Ren in a slowly run race here (1m4f) last month; stamina-laden pedigree suggests she should relish the longer trip and one to be interested in.

Brings good stats, being 2-2 since returned to turf from AW and 2-3 at Bath; justified favouritism at Windsor last week when avoiding a penalty for his C&D success under Myla Coppins; has to deal with revised mark and a 4lb penalty but still respected.
