Form & Verdict
Best known for her Hamilton exploits, including two wins this month (6f, good), but she does have a 6f course win on her record; well in under a 4lb penalty and clearly thriving but she is 0-9 over 7f and any further deterioration of the ground would perhaps place too much emphasis on stamina.
