Form & Verdict
All three wins have come over 7f at Chepstow, including on fast and slow ground; runner-up back at that track in May and she built on it with a close call at Brighton (7f, good) nine days later; nudged up 2lb but she should be in the thick of things again.

Three-time course winner (7f/1m) who disappointed in this race last year when chasing a Brighton hat-trick; bounced back when runner-up at Epsom next time but he 's not been in the same form since, including when fifth at Leicester on Monday; body of work at this venue says he can never be dismissed, however, and first-time blinkers might reignite the fire.
