Has thrived since returning to action this summer, landing two wins over fences before registering her first hurdles win, over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago; 4lb rise may not be enough to stop her winning again.

2-2 here over fences since returning from a break, latest when staying on best five days ago, taking her tally in that sphere to four, all at about this trip; yet to win in 20 attempts over hurdles, which does temper enthusiasm, and this is a quick turnaround, but she's thriving at present and hard to rule out.
