Her sole success came over C&D and she shaped as though the run was needed after a 12-week layoff when a fading seventh of nine in 6f Kempton handicap 29 days ago; she can take a step forward now.

Just 1-16 but her win came at this track (6f) in March and she was a close third at Kempton two weeks ago; looks worth another try at this trip and has claims if she can repeat that latest form.

17-race maiden; not beaten far when third of five at Chepstow (5f, good) last month but that form is very tricky to evaluate (36-rated winner beat 1-12 favourite), and he's untested on ground slower than good to soft.

Headstrong; unplaced in six 6f-1m AW/turf starts for George Boughey including tried in headgear which is now removed; however, was twice well supported in the market, and the booking of Rossa Ryan catches the eye; might prove capable of better.

Form & Verdict
Didn't progress in three 6f maiden/novices for Rae Guest last year, but best run came on the AW first time up (finished one place behind a subsequent winner); fair chance she'll build on that now fresh again, back on the AW and handicapping at a lowly level.
