Of serious interest on last season's best form for William Haggas; yet to fire for David O'Meara but her latest run at Leicester can be ignored as she was trapped against the rail for most of the final 2f; fine on good ground but unraced on slower.

Encouraging stable debut when second of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) hasn't been built on, although latest 8l defeat when fourth of 14 at Redcar (7f) came when the first two home raced alone; from the family of an Oaks winner so there's hope on pedigree that this new trip might help.
