Best of her three runs for Declan Carroll last season when 2l fourth in a York novice on her debut in June (5f, good to firm; first three all now rated in the eighties); refused to enter the stalls on her intended reappearance earlier this month; first run at 6f, first for new yard and first with hood and a tongue-tie tried; interesting.

Looked one to follow when an impressive winner of a fillies' handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) on her stable debut in July; beaten over 7f on her next two starts and then never featured dropped to 5f at Windsor seven weeks ago; not discounted back at this trip.

Made stable/handicap debut at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago after an absence and won comfortably; 2l second of five under penalty at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) four days later but she may be able to settle better in this bigger field and this unexposed 3yo retains potential.

Returns from six weeks off but she was in good form when last seen, third at Beverley despite meeting trouble in running; should be thereabouts again, although plenty of rain would be a negative as she's been withdrawn several times due to soft/heavy ground.

Two wins in similar company at Kempton this season (6f; cheekpieces on first occasion); short-head second at Leicester last time (6f, good; no headgear); chance with cheekpieces back on, although fast ground a concern (below form both starts on good to firm).

Decent strike-rate on AW but form has been patchy since her last win April and she failed to beat a rival at Chelmsford (6f) on last month's stable debut; now 3lb lower than for last success but she still has stamina to prove at this trip and others are more solid; cheekpieces reapplied.

Form & Verdict
Both wins have been with give in the ground, latest at Wetherby in April (5.5f, soft); in fair form recently, including when close third over 6f at Ripon two runs back; could go well if handling this faster ground (well beaten on debut only previous run on good to firm).
