Almost two years between her two wins, the latter at Newcastle (5f, AW) last October; 0-11 on turf but beaten about only 2l in a Catterick handicap (5f, good to firm) latest outing; hooded once (2023) and now tries cheekpieces.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Stephen Hanlon

Three-time C&D winner, the latest of those coming in first-time blinkers off a 7lb lower mark in January; has been running well since, including when runner-up here 15 days ago, and there's no reason to think she won't go well again.

T: Stephen Hanlon

Narrow C&D winner in first-time blinkers (from 7lb lower) in January; has held her form well since, a close fourth (Shatin Venture second, La Rochette fifth) to Digital latest; likely to give another solid account with Paul Mulrennan aboard.

Form & Verdict
Last month's breakthrough success came at the 18th attempt but he ran respectably in another Catterick 5f handicap ten days ago, confirming that he's one of the most likely to give his running in this field; tongue tied for those last two outings; player.

Both wins have been on Newcastle AW, including when a first-time visor replaced cheekpieces in March (6f; hung left) on latest start; unraced over shorter than that but it now looks worth a go; only four runs on turf but latest (here last June) showed ability; major chance if all is well after the break.
