Form & Verdict
Six-time winner including four on turf (good/soft); runner-up in final two starts last season but she struggled at Wolverhampton (6f) in her final run last year; this drop back in trip looks a good move on her return but her last three wins have been in Class 5 events and others are preferred.

Recorded her sixth win when making all at Haydock (5f, good) in July but she's not gone on from that in three runs since; ran respectably at Haydock last time but she looks weighted near her best off this mark and could be vulnerable again.

Acts on good to firm and soft; ten-time winner but her last four turf wins have been at Beverley and she's been out of sorts in three runs this year; has something to prove and she needs a big turnaround.

Ended 2025 in top form, winning twice at Beverley (5f, soft), but she has looked rusty on both her starts this year; absent another seven weeks since her last run and probably best watched.

Appeared to run creditably when a 50-1 shot in Listed races the last twice, albeit taking record to 0-12; technically in form but she's the only maiden in this field and has the worst chance at the weights.

0-11 but she went close when beaten a neck in Newbury Listed race in August; similar form when seventh to Revival Power in Doncaster Group 2 in September and when sixth of 14 in Bath Listed event (also 5f, good) on last month's return; likely to find a few too good again.

Her front-running C&D win last May came off just 1lb lower; ended 2025 quietly but she returned to form after six months off, keeping on well for second at Musselburgh (5f, good) 32 days ago; takes on some less-exposed 3yos but likely to go well.
