Sole win from 16 starts came on her handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in December; runner-up on three occasions since, twice over this C&D, but she's been behind Nala The Lioness on her last two starts.

Won on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in December; 0-9 since but she's finished runner-up three times and was a fair fourth behind Nala The Lioness at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) last week; has a swing in the weights with her old rival and she's an each-way contender.

Chased home a better-fancied stablemate (who is now BHA rated 88) on his Kempton debut last September and then bumped into another smart sort at Ascot on his second run; his four subsequent defeats have come at odds of 30-100 (again behind a progressive rival), Evs, 8-11 and 6-4 and although he should stay this longer trip well, the fact more new headgear is tried suggests he has his quirks; still of interest on handicap debut.

All six starts on AW, winning 1m2f Chelmsford novice and 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap in the autumn; only fifth at Chelmsford next time but resumed his progression when second of eight over 1m3f at Kempton nine days ago; that appeals as solid form and he's likely to have a big say off the same mark (2lb higher from Saturday) if his stamina holds over this significantly longer trip (pedigree provides hope).
