Form & Verdict
Won at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in May and shaped as if still in form when midfield over 7f there next time, but she dropped away having raced freely over that C&D 23 days ago; needs to bounce back on return to turf (0-6); stablemate of Blue Hero.

Both wins have come on the AW and she had no apparent excuses when midfield in a similar contest at Bath (1m, firm) last time; first-time hood replaces the usual cheekpieces.

All eight wins have been at this track, including two over this C&D; didn't get the breaks when a close fourth here last month and shaped as if still in form when third of six here (also 1m2f) three weeks ago; drops back to 1m with obvious claims.
