Raised her game again this season, including a Doncaster handicap win (1m4f, good); appeared to show improved form again in Listed race last time, which can be questioned as she was a never-dangerous sixth of seven at 25-1 but her mark is unchanged.

2-13 overall and 1-8 in handicaps, the handicap win in a four-runner race (1m2f) last November; probably stays 1m6f but did not show it on latest outing; 5lb lower today than at start of this season but the first-time tongue-tie seemingly needs to make a difference.

All three wins have been at 1m2f and, although she has run well at 1m3f, this far might be a stretch; if she did last out then would have a chance in current form on ground she handles; Arron D'Arcy's claim eases her career-high mark.
