Very similar type to Avon Light, being 0-5 and having produced her clear best RPRs in two AW runs; only a neck behind that rival when unlucky fourth at Wolverhampton (9.5f; came from difficult position and met traffic issues) latest; good chance off same mark, provided she has recovered from a recent incident (injured en route to Lingfield ten days ago; withdrawn).

8yo who went 21 months without a win but has now scored at Windsor, Lingfield, Chepstow and Ripon in his four races this turf season; his second in this race last year was a remote one and the 6lb rise since his latest start asks a question, but conditions fine and he's on a major roll, ridden by Sarah Bowen on last two starts (two in four days); major player.
