Tapeta winner as a 2yo; two 1m4f turf wins (small fields) last summer; returned to action with a good second at Kempton in March but absent since a lesser run in May; good record fresh and likely to be in the thick of it.

Soft/heavy ground may not have suited on her final two runs last year and she was back to her best on her C&D comeback; fared best of those to race on the pace that day and is entitled to improve, given she'd been off for almost six months.

Won this race last year (good to firm) in good style and has a 1lb lower mark today; 2026 build-up has been far less auspicious than last season's, however, and the first-time visor of latest start is now replaced with a first-time tongue-tie.

Latest Nottingham third in this headgear was a bit better and he'll be a threat to all if recapturing the form he showed when a close second over C&D (good to firm) off 2lb higher in April, particularly with Jack Callan taking an additional 3lb off.
