Five-race maiden but she had a near-miss with cheekpieces added in a Newmarket handicap (1m2f, good to firm) last month; showed a good attitude with that rallying effort and she's a big player off unchanged mark.

Never made her debut until April when second at Yarmouth (1m2f, good), which remains her best piece of form; found nothing for pressure on handicap debut (1m2f) but didn't appear unfancied at 7-2 and could be given another chance in new cheekpieces.

Unable to score on turf this term is much less exposed on AW and the second of her two attempts in this sphere resulted in peak performance, namely Southwell handicap win (1m4f) in April; not dismissed.

Seen only once this year, when well-held second of four in heavy-ground conditions race last month, and managed only fourth when favourite for this race in 2024 (also on heavy); however, the form of her close second in Listed grade at Longchamp (1m6f, good to soft) last September gives her a good shout and she's not yet fully exposed.
