Strong 6f form in October when last seen, gaining her comfortable maiden win at the chief expense of a subsequent scorer (Zooming) then running well in Listed grade at Newmarket where she was only one place behind Azleet who landed the Nell Gwyn on Wednesday; worth another crack at 7f and probably has a better chance than bare ratings suggest.
