Form & Verdict
Improved form on her handicap debut when runner-up over C&D in May and showed plenty of further progress with an emphatic success on soft ground here (1m4f) last Wednesday; won eased down by 11l in that race and she looks very well treated under a penalty.

Improved when switched to handicaps this summer, winning twice at Leicester (1m4f, soft) but only second of four when sent off odds-on for her hat-trick bid over the same C&D (good to firm) last time; return to softer ground would be a help and she is a half-sister to a winner over this trip; shortlisted.
