Form & Verdict
2-4 over C&D, including this race in 2022; benefited from wind surgery when beating 13 rivals at Newcastle in June, and when down the field at York in July she was poorly drawn; got tired in the final 100 yards at Hamilton (heavy) last time; one to consider.

Five wins and a second from nine attempts over C&D; ended 2025 in flying form and returned off a brutal mark as a consequence; handicapper relenting now and her third at Nottingham 13 days ago was a step back in the right direction; this should be run to suit and she's a strong contender.

Didn't get the breaks at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on penultimate start, but she pounced late to continue her consistent spell at Redcar (6f, good; from 3lb lower) subsequently, justifying favouritism; is well drawn in stall 12, so should have a positive role to play.
