Suited by good to soft and slower and possibly found conditions against her in two of three runs since an impressive defeat of Ziggy's Phoenix at Sandown (1m, good to soft) in June; this mark shouldn't be beyond her but it could go either way in first-time cheekpieces.

Triple winner for Alice Haynes including over C&D; went the wrong way in five runs for Hugo Palmer last season but she reappeared with a creditable third on stable debut at Musseburgh (1m, good) last month; that was off 2lb lower than for her last success and has claims if she can back that up.

C&D winner (soft) last October; with new yard this term and some concern about latest start, albeit over 1m2f on heavy and her first run at Chester, but reappearance third at Ayr in July gives her a chance; cheekpieces (worn on last two starts last season) return and she needs a second look.
