In fine form this summer and was only beaten a head by Faustus when bidding for a hat-trick over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; up 1lb and could do with the ground drying out a bit more, but still a major player in her current mood.

T: Christopher Mason

C&D winner (firm) who was third back over C&D on her reappearance in May and ran to a similar level back here next time; produced a career-best effort when winning a Chepstow classified event (5f, good to firm) latest; needs a similar effort to defy this mark back in a handicap but there are plenty of positives, including with her yard among the winners.
