Form & Verdict
Kodiac filly out of a German 1m1f Listed winner; made a promising debut when third at Ripon (5f, good) in August and she took a major step forward when making virtually all over C&D last month; sets the standard under a penalty for that clearcut success and she's open to more progress; big player.

Made most for two 6f novice wins on Chelmsford AW as 2yo; respectable rather than dynamic efforts as 3yo, including in a 6f Newmarket handicap last time behind a wide-margin winner who had no pretensions to being way ahead of her mark; needs improvement for step up to 7f.

Built upon last August's promising debut at Ripon (5f, good to firm) to post two novice wins at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in the autumn; only fifth of seven in conditions race at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) three weeks ago but may have needed that comeback run and she retains potential on handicap debut.

Made a promising debut on turf (5f) in August and made virtually all when winning her next two starts, both at Chelmsford (Polytrack) over 6f, latterly in October; the least exposed of these and likely we haven't seen the best of her; interesting ahead of this comeback.

Ran green at Chepstow (5f) in August but she left that form behind when an eyecatching fourth from wide draw over C&D last month; that was behind Lady Kodiac but she has a swing in the weights in this rematch and could be dangerous if she can find more progress.
