Probably needed run when only fourth to Dream On Baby on return and she returned to her best when a rallying third in Listed race at Sandown (2m4f, good) three weeks ago; should be well suited by this step up to 3m+ and she won't be inconvenienced by rain-softened ground; still unexposed.

Seemingly aided by first-time cheekpieces when clear second at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November and ran well for a long way before fading into fifth at Kempton (3m, good) just after Christmas; this drop back in trip looks the right move; probably won't be far away.
