Smooth win at Newcastle (7f) in December and now rated 2lb lower; that is a result of beating just one horse home in four subsequent starts; jury out for now.

Sole win from 18 starts on the AW came at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December and bounced back to form when runner-up there ten days ago; makes each-way appeal returned to 7f off a 2lb lower mark (4lb well in).

Went up 10lb for three fast-ground wins in early summer and has generally run well off her revised mark since, usually from the front; fair chance she's able to get her own way, in which case she'll be dangerous, with the drying weather in her favour.

Four-time course winner including in this race last year for another trainer; has refused to race on a couple of occasions, but 2lb below her last winning mark and ran even better than it may have looked when fourth of 11 back here (7f) last month; comes with risks attached, but capable if things fall right.
