Commenced her career in progressive fashion, posting form figures of 211 in C&D novice events; 0-3 in handicaps elsewhere since but ran creditably last time; may have more to offer back in this scenario.

Beaten just over 2l by the subsequent Queen Mary winner Leovanni on Nottingham debut last summer and soft ground was a valid excuse for her short-priced defeat at Ripon two weeks later; tailed off over 5f here in February when back from an eight-month break and now has something to prove.
