Kept on far too strongly for the odds-on favourite when scoring on debut at Southwell (6f) two weeks ago and could easily have a lot more to offer over 7f; needs to be taken very seriously.

Inconsistent this year and goes without headgear for the first time in a while; won her novice over C&D on debut last summer and is down to career-low mark; capable if settling better back up from 5f.

Eight-race maiden who was safely held on first three starts for current stable, most recently when fifth of six over C&D a fortnight ago; has a tendency to race too freely and it's very hard to predict whether the addition of blinkers will have a positive effect today.

Hasn't proved any more tractable for the addition of a hood on her last two starts, dropping away in handicaps here (8.6f) and at Chelmsford (6f); continues to edge down the weights and the new tongue-tie could help.
