Won her third bumper start (good ground) but was beaten 16l into fourth on her hurdle debut and since then has finished out the back in a 1m6f maiden at Goodwood; has ability though and this isn't a good maiden.

Form & Verdict

1m4f/1m6f wins for Charlie Johnston; now 0-11 over hurdles and was disappointing in a low-grade handicap here only recently; however, there is placed form in her record and she could have some part to play.
