Form & Verdict
Out of a fair 3m chase winner; looked rather onepaced over C&D (good) on debut in May but stayed on well from the rear to snatch fourth; probably won't be seen to best effect until tackling longer trips but it will be interesting to see whether connections opt for more positive tactics today.

Minor late gains in a Listed bumper latest; nature of preceding Uttoxeter win (good to soft) marked her out as one for further than 2m over hurdles, an impression backed up by pedigree, so may find this a tad sharp.
