Made a winning start for her new connections when coming home 2.25l clear of her rivals in a Class 5 at Chelmsford 16 days ago (5f); she looked to be going nowhere through the first half of that race, under the pump before the field had completed a furlong, but the pace folded and she was strong at the finish; a 6lb rise and stronger opposition could find her out.

Not an instant success in handicaps but the return to 5f helped when putting up a game show to win with nothing to spare on AW in April; a subsequent Yarmouth third suggests more will be needed in this higher grade.
