Posted career-best performance when coming from off the pace to win decisively at Lingfield (1m) this month; can cope with today's drop back in trip (providing she gets a good gallop to aim at) and her recent 3lb rise is offset by Joe Leavy's useful 3lb claim; major player.

Didn't get the solid pace she needs when keeping on into fourth over C&D on Saturday but that was a step back in the right direction and she racked up a hat-trick (first leg came over C&D) early in the year.

Form & Verdict
Won over 1m on turf (soft) and Polytrack last year; still 3lb higher than for last win but she returned from a break with a close fourth at Lingfield (1m) 12 days ago; should benefit from that run and she had a close call over this trip in the autumn; in the mix with Billy Loughnane booked.

Has run on softer than good only twice, but one was a soft-ground win (July 2023); better this term, notably with 1m wins at Salisbury and Windsor on two of her last four starts; ran respectably on latest; in the mix if this return to testing ground is okay.
