Made a winning debut at Southwell in March (1m) and she ran to a similar level under a penalty at Kempton in both April and May; well-beaten 20-1 shot on last month's handicap debut (1m) and improvement is a must now stepping up in trip.

Promising debut (1m, AW) but lesser efforts on her next two starts; left that form well behind with a comprehensive front-running win dropped to 6f at Yarmouth last month and the form has been boosted since; could have more to offer as a sprinter but she'll have to work harder to dominate proceedings this time.
