0-7 since winning on debut at Southwell (5f, AW) in April; didn't run badly when fourth in nursery at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last time but didn't pose a threat and needs to raise her game this afternoon.

Form & Verdict
Hasn't looked straightforward but clear promise in her three runs in novice and maiden company, recording her best RPR when beaten a head on debut (6f, good to firm); slower ground to contend with but she makes her nursery debut at a suitable level.

Gained her breakthrough when dropped to 6f (from 8.3f) at Newmarket (good to firm) in June and ran at least as well when running-on third at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month; slightly disappointing on latest outing but still considered on this move back up to 7f.

Off the mark at the eighth attempt with a narrow win at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last month; couldn't pose a serious threat when third at Leicester last time but she finished well and that was an eye-catching effort; still unexposed as a sprint handicapper and has claims if she gets a good pace to aim at.

Benefitted from the return to sprinting when popping up in a 6f handicap at Newmarket two weeks ago; that effort is backed up by the Topspeed figure and she is a key player despite a 4lb rise.

Form & Verdict
All runs over 6f; built on her eyecatching first run at Windsor with a narrow win at Southwell; it was always going to be tough in a sales race last time and she ran okay from a modest draw; Rossa Ryan booked for nursery debut; slower than good would be a query.

The drop to 6f and fitting of cheekpieces saw her return to form at Goodwood (soft ground) in June, seeing off eight rivals in a 0-70 fillies' handicap; not in the same form at Lingfield (AW) seven weeks ago; needs a full revival.

Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and new cheekpieces when scoring at Goodwood (6f, soft) last month; recent 5lb rise asks quite a lot of her but this return to Polytrack won't be a problem.

Confirmed the promise of her Newbury debut by winning a fillies' maiden at Windsor in July (6f, good); similar form when fourth under a penalty at Lingfield last month (5f, AW); further improvement required now handicapping but that is not out of the question.

Won a maiden over C&D (good) for the Kublers a year ago and only just beaten on her reappearance/stable debut at Goodwood (6f, soft) in June, but well beaten at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month; may not want the ground this quick, but still a player if bouncing back in first-time cheekpieces.

Best 2yo form in the fifth of five handicap starts, when a ready winner over 5f at Nottingham (soft) last October and emerged with credit from her return, coming clear with an improved rival at Haydock (6f, soft; first two well clear) recently; up 2lb but one to fear if conditions deteriorate.
