Lightly raced 5yo who returns to a more suitable grade, having faced a stiff task in Class 2 event on reappearance; however, still hasn't backed up the form of her Doncaster win (handicap debut).

Made successful handicap debut at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) last June but that was a slowly-run small-field Class 5 event and she was well beaten twice afterwards; returns from four-month break in a tough race.

Emerged from off the pace to be second in smallish fields over 1m4f here (good/good to firm) last summer, her first two handicaps; absent since finishing tailed off over 2m on AW in July but the first of those runner-up efforts here came off a six-month break so she's evidently capable when fresh; not discounted.
