C&D winner early in the year who can pull hard and flash her tail; this is tougher than last time, when touched off in a small field against her own sex, but the return to the AW should help, likewise a first-time hood.

Form & Verdict
Took a big step forward at the third time of asking when making all to win a 7f fillies' novice at Chelmsford three weeks ago; the third home has since won a handicap off a BHA rating of 65 so there is optimism that her opening mark is well within range; unlikely to get a soft lead here though.

Looked green but showed ability when fifth of eight on her Wolverhampton debut (7f, Tapeta) in January (just over a length behind Class Member), but didn't improve when filling the same position at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) last month; can be handicapped after this, but she could play a part if building on her initial performance.

7f novice winner at Chelmsford on her second start; no real improvement for the switch to handicaps when fourth at Southwell in February but 1m may have stretched her; still has time to do better.
