Form & Verdict
Well-bred filly who showed improved form at the third attempt as a 2yo, finishing third (shaped like the second best horse in the race) at Chepstow in September (5f, soft); suspicion she's been let into handicaps lightly and the best is yet to come.

Had wind surgery prior to an encouraging effort at Goodwood and seemed out of her depth in Class 4 at Doncaster St Leger meeting since; C&D winner (off 2lb lower) last October and has possibilities back down in grade.

Had a wind op in July and her finishing effort when second at Goodwood three weeks ago suggested it had done the trick; runs off the same mark today and, given her relatively low mileage, there could well be more in the tank.

Form & Verdict
Promise last season, including on turf (good to firm), but she's looked a vastly improved performer this year, reeling off a 5f hat-trick at Wolverhampton; looks thrown in under a penalty for last week's easy win and drying ground would help; obvious claims.
