Won two of her last three starts for previous yard (7f; AW and turf) once tongue tied; has come to hand for new connections on AW of late, finishing well into second of 13 at Wolverhampton (about 1m) then slowly away but getting to the front quite readily at Southwell (7f) since; now 4lb higher but should have another race in her.
