Form & Verdict
Yet to be placed from eight starts; left George Scott for 7,000gns in May; fair sixth at Kempton AW (1m3f) on stable debut 11 days ago; she may find improvement back on a sounder surface and is not one to give up on.

Not beaten far a couple of times over C&D early in the year and the switch to first-time blinkers did the trick over 1m4f here a fortnight ago; that was only a 0-50 classified event but this isn't the strongest of handicaps.
