Blew the start and hit traffic over 5f last time, so that run was better than it looked, and the return of the hood/blinkers worn for this year's two AW wins is a bonus; goes on the shortlist.

Returned to Tony Carroll and left a couple of quiet AW runs behind when scoring over C&D (beat She Went Whoosh by nearly 3l) and at Brighton (6f) in May; came up short in hat-trick bid at Windsor on Monday but was out of his comfort zone early over the bare 5f before plugging on into fifth; not dismissed if turned out quickly.

Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last month and he did it in good style; followed up under a 4lb penalty at Brighton (6f, again good to firm) one week later, leading in the final strides, so this 5f could be an issue but he's on a roll again.

Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last Friday and he did it in good style; that gives him a big chance under just a 4lb penalty but he's run with credit at Brighton only once from eight visits.

Has shown enough to think she could win races, but she's currently 0-33 and she didn't really threaten behind Banana here on her reappearance nine days ago (5f, firm); the extra distance should help, as may a change of headgear, but others appeal more for win purposes.
