Looked as though she could make a mark in better company when easily seeing off ten rivals over C&D in October, her second handicap run; two lesser efforts have followed but perhaps the return to Southwell can see her resume her progress.

13-race maiden but he's reached frame on all eight handicap starts in 2025 and latest 1m Kempton second reads well as he was over 3l clear of a next-time-out winner in third (the fifth also won next time); a 1lb nudge for that looks more than fair; can gain reward for his consistency.
