No fluke about her 40-1 surprise win over C&D one year ago; finished second in a Wolverhampton novice back from a 355-day absence this month; not sure that form is especially solid though and she'll need improvement to defy the widest stall on her handicap debut.

Beaten at short odds in her two starts this winter, fair form when second to an unheralded newcomer at Lingfield six weeks ago (7f); raced freely there and returning to 6f can help; still has time to do better.

Promising start to her career when sixth in a 6f sales race at Newmarket in October; well backed at Newcastle 11 days ago but looked to find 6f too sharp (perhaps not ideally positioned either); still capable of better but such progress will be needed in this field.

Got the better of Pique at Wolverhampton (1m4f) on her handicap debut in June and she's 4lb better off with that rival today; no progress for cheekpieces the last twice and now gets blinkers; stamina won't be an issue but yet to tackle slower than good.

Modest form (no impact) in three AW runs late last year; something seemed amiss on seasonal/handicap debut at Chepstow (1m, good) in July, reportedly unsuited by the undulating track, and she was withdrawn once in August when the ground was heavy; no solid claims.

Minor ability at 1m and 7f on AW in late 2023 and this well-connected filly is worth a look on handicap debut for in-form yard; however she's been off since December and if she needs a run or two she's likely to be eligible for easier races in the future; market can guide.
