Won a Catterick nursery (6f, good to soft) in July; not seen to quite the same effect in three subsequent runs but she chased home an improver here (5.3f) last time and this return to slower ground looks a positive; in the mix back up in trip.

Scored twice on Chelmsford's AW (7f) earlier in the year and she's run better than her finishing position suggests on her last two starts, hampered at Yarmouth in August and not getting a clear shot at it (also looked uncomfortable on the track) at Ripon last time; yard going well and she's interesting despite an outside stall.
