Can lead; has form at both sprint trips but her win came in a 6f Chepstow maiden (good); had the widest draw to overcome when finishing last of nine on Lingfield AW in May and has more going for her in this lower grade back at 6f; first-time cheekpieces fitted.

Runner-up in both starts, latterly when keeping on at Chepstow behind one who had the advantage of the stands' rail; 7f should be fine, especially around here, and she's more appealing than most.
