Useful handicapper who bids for a hat-trick after wins over 7f at Sandown and Newmarket; placed in all three AW starts, but faces a daunting task at this level on her first attempt at 1m.

Raced more prominently (which suited) than runner-up Hot Chesnut when both were placed last time at Newmarket; had escaped a penalty for the previous week's win so she's 6lb higher for this; perhaps vulnerable.
