Form & Verdict

Expensive to follow as a 2yo, beaten favourite in both runs following her promising Newbury debut (6f, good); sets a clear form standard on her return from a 227-day absence; cheekpieces now reached for.

Form & Verdict

Sent off at big prices and has run to just a modest level in her two starts 387 days apart, the latest over C&D nine days ago; should find easier pickings once handicapping.
