Consistent since handicapping including a win at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft) just under a year ago; may have needed last month's Salisbury return (1m6f, good), but good to firm ground would be a concern.

Won on heavy last year on debut and took a soft-ground handicap at Ffos Las (1m6f) in June; all her other races were on less testing ground, running creditably in further 1m6f handicaps on good to soft on last two starts; kept hanging left here on latest and cheekpieces are now enlisted; today's forecast return to the mud has to boost interest in her.
