Seven-time winner who didn't get home in a Windsor handicap (6f, good) a fortnight ago, but she does stay this far; has won on good to firm, but most of her successes have come on good ground or softer; sports headgear for the first time on her 60th outing.

Turned in an excellent effort when winning the corresponding race from stall 1 (14 ran) last May, flying out of the stalls and able to get to the stands' rail after one furlong; also won at Ffos Las in July and both victories were achieved off a higher mark than today's; not at best last time but his reappearance had been encouraging; should make a bold bid.

Won off this mark at Sandown (5f, soft) for Ed Walker last summer and gained a narrow success over Abolish for this yard at Kempton (6f, AW) in March; comfortably held here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, but being proven under the likely conditions means he can't be dismissed.
