Form & Verdict
0-6; just a modest handicap debut at Sandown in September but she had shown promise in maiden company previously and was a persistent third at Wolverhampton (extended 1m1f) in October; this stiffer test can suit and Oisin Murphy (2-9 for trainer) is booked; hood refitted.

Won in good style on last season's reappearance outing (1m2f, good) but was not in the same form on any of her five subsequent runs last year and was safely held when back in action in April; off for another 75 days since and not yet proven over this far; needs to get career back on track.
