Fantastic servant who has added another three C&D wins to her haul this year; unplaced here on her last three starts but drops back into a Class 6 today and a 13th course success isn't out of the question.

Several creditable efforts this summer before getting back on the scoresheet with a strong finish over C&D (good; second-time cheekpieces) last week; this is tougher under a penalty but that was a personal best last time and she should get a good tow into this race; respected.

Sole win on turf came at Ayr (5f, good to soft) last September; has ran to a similar level on her last four outings, most recently when third of nine at Ascot (5f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) 18 days ago; stepping back up in trip will suit and she's considered.

Solid efforts to finish fourth in each of her last three starts (6f, good or faster), running to a similar level on each occasion; Billy Loughnane takes over in the saddle and cheekpieces are now given a go; she'll need a good pace back at 5f if she is to come out on top.

Form & Verdict
Resumed winning ways in good style at Pontefract (6f) in July and backed it up with a very good fourth of ten in similar event there 16 days ago given he raced wide; that form has been franked so he merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark.
