Surface: Tapeta

Weather: Mostly cloudy

Form: 5U420- C

Last run: 13 days

W: 9st 9lb

6 yo Filly

OR: 68

Disappointing when beating one home at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) last time (reportedly hung right); had previously gone down by just a neck over this C&D (fourth horse has won twice since) and a repeat of that would put her right in the mix.

3-3 over 6f here this month and just 1lb higher than when winning an apprentice handicap under Kaiya Fraser last Friday; has won over 7f at Lingfield and is a major player if seeing out the trip on a stiffer track.

Patchy form since winning at Ayr (6f, good to soft) in August and just 1-22 on the AW, but it's been a while since she raced down at this level; hood returns for the first time since her second start at the beginning of 2022; each-way shout.
