Form & Verdict
Both AW runs have been at Kempton and after winning there last month (1m) she ran a cracker in defeat back over 7f at York, finishing second of 18; only 2lb higher than for that Class 2 effort and she's an uncomplicated filly who has to go well.

Three wins last June-September (7f-1m) along with 1l second of 18 in a fillies' handicap here (7f, good to firm), and she's better than she showed at Newmarket (1m, good) on her final outing last season; this lightly raced 4yo is in excellent hands to continue to progress and she's one to consider.

Lightly raced 4yo filly who readily beat 14 rivals at Newbury (7f, good to soft) in sole start this season, taking turf record to 4-4; looks likely to cope with an 8lb rise; goes well fresh and commands respect on return from another break, with further improvement very plausible.

This 5yo is in the form of her life at present, gaining a third Musselburgh handicap win of the season when easily seeing off seven rivals 37 days ago; had a wide stall as a an excuse for a slightly below-par effort over the extended 7f here prior to that and she went close here last season; on the shortlist.
