T: Tony Carroll

Hampered by faller and pulled up at Lingfield in May, and withdrawn here three days later when jockey had concerns over how filly was moving and was not prepared to ride; however, she was just 7-2 at the time of withdrawal and this C&D winner is capable of playing a leading role off her last winning mark.

Versatile sort who won three times last year including at Leicester (1m, good to firm) and over C&D (heavy); now 2lb lower than for her AW win in December but things have not gone well in two runs this season; got hampered by a faller when pulled up at Lingfield on Tuesday but she needs a major revival back at this track; yard also runs Neptune Legend.

Won at Bath (5.5f, heavy) and Kempton (6f, AW) last year, but she beat only one rival home at Kempton last month following a 63-day break; has won over 1m so this step back up in trip will be no issue, and she won't be inconvenienced by any rain.
