Inconsistent but she comfortably made all at 25-1 in a handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last month and ran as well as could be expected in a Listed race at Redcar last time (7f, soft; fifth of six); no surprise to see a bold bid now back in a handicap.

Placed on her first two starts (Wolverhampton & Beverley; 7f-7.5f); had a valid excuse - bumped at the start - for a laboured effort last time; while she doesn't necessarily appear to be an obvious winner in waiting, this is a modest affair in which to seek to make the transition to nurseries.

Form & Verdict
Has improved a chunk with every run, making much of the running when second of 14 at Nottingham (6f, good to firm; 14-1) last week; that sets the standard for the others to aim at and today's longer trip should be within his range; leading contender.
