She's raced 13 times and won just once (last May); also unproven on slow ground; however, she kept on galloping when sixth of 11 over 7f at Newmarket three weeks ago and this first crack at 1m is worth a go.

Just one win from 12 attempts, but she hasn't been long with her current yard and she seemed unsuited by the drop back to 5f when a never-nearer fourth of eight at Catterick ten days ago; looks well handicapped and the return to 7f should be right up her street.
