0-6 but she has run to a similar level on her last four starts and the handicapper is slowly easing her burden; needs to better her midfield finish in a similar event when last seen 47 days ago though.

Lightly raced 3yo from useful middle-distance family; bumped into an improver at Kempton in June and met trouble in running when only sixth of nine on handicap debut over this C&D seven weeks ago; dropped 2lb since and may still have more to offer; could be the answer for in-form yard.

Eight-race maiden but she has shown winning potential and wasn't helped by her rider losing his whip when she was drifting right here last month (1m); return to 1m2f no problem and she should make another bold bid.

Form & Verdict
Promise in France in the spring; attracted support on her stable/handicap debut at Kempton four weeks ago (1m), but having held a good position 2f out she couldn't pick up in the closing stages; that form has worked out well and there is encouragement for 1m2f on pedigree so she can't be ruled out.
