Form & Verdict
Made it 0-8 when seventh of eight at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; however, the cheekpieces adopted that day are swiftly dispensed with and she's finished second on her three other outings this season (5.5f/6f); could bounce back and play a leading role.

She rattled off a hat-trick at 6f on good ground around this time last year and was back in the groove when scoring at Ayr (6f, soft) four weeks ago; has been put back to her career-high mark (0-2) but there's a solid chance she can defy it this time.

Reeled off a 6f hat-trick last July, one of them here, scaling the handicap in the process; promising run at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month, her second run of the year, and she now has something to build on; unraced on slower than good but she is by Mayson out a mare whose best form came on slower than good; interesting.
