All four wins at about this trip in 2023, including over C&D; not totally clear whether she's still the same mare since back from an absence but she gave Moon Over The Sea some grief at Windsor (about 1m3f, good to firm) on her recent return to turf and has another good run in her.

Raced mainly on AW and proved unsuited by return to turf last time; recent form in this sphere is sound (runner-up last two attempts) and this apprentice race looks a favourable opportunity with rising star Billy Loughnane booked.
