Ended last season with a win in this race on soft ground for William Haggas; ninth in Group 3 events on both runs for David O'Meara but she wasn't beaten that far at Doncaster latterly and might strip fitter now as that was her first outing for three months; not discounted.

Disappointing on sole run this year, when making stable debut in Group 3 at Epsom in June; however, she was progressive for William Haggas last season, winning a Listed race at Ascot (7f, soft) last October, and she'll be of interest if rediscovering that promise in a first-time tongue-tie.
