Made a promising debut here on good ground in October and built on that when winning comfortably at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) next time; disappointing at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) 196 days ago, weakening late after racing freely, but she may settle better over this shorter trip; interesting on her handicap debut.

Ran well over slightly shorter here on debut last May; easy to back and no immediate success story in handicaps for new yard but this longer trip could be worth another go; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces.
