Eleven-time winner including at Listed level; ran well on seasonal reappearance in the Listed Beverley Bullet but has failed to land a blow the last twice; 3-16 on the AW but could only manage sixth when 5-1 for this last year; needs to rediscover best.

Made all in this last year (good) and encouraging Listed third at Beverley (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago on her belated reappearance; won on soft ground at the start of her career; her usual visor returns (left off last time) and she has leading claims if building on her comeback run.
