Form & Verdict
Reeled off a 6f hat-trick last July, one of them here, scaling the handicap in the process; promising run at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month, her second run of the year, and she now has something to build on; unraced on slower than good but she is by Mayson out a mare whose best form came on slower than good; interesting.
