Tongue tied and made most when clearcut winner at Ludlow (2m5f) and excellent second of 16 at Warwick (2m3f, again good to soft); fluffing the final flight relinquished the initiative last time (Edith Pelham third, Shotgun Shirley fourth) and she's open to further progress on this handicap debut.

Has just over 5l to find with White Noise on their Warwick clash in February (2m3f, heavy) but a 5lb pull with the winner can only help her cause and perhaps 3m on soft ground stretched her when a remote second at Doncaster (Listed); has to enter the reckoning.

About 11l fourth to Betty's Daisy at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) on second start over hurdles; a bit better when coming from the rear for sixth of 12 at Market Rasen (near 2m5f, soft) on latest, which isn't the most persuasive evidence but this handicap debut should give her a better chance.
