4-7 since joining Joe Tickle and her third over a similar trip at Bath off this mark was no backward step; behind respected opposition that day; should be in the thick of it; peak form on good and good to firm.

0-3 in Ireland; now 4-6 for current yard after prevailing narrowly in a small field at Windsor (extended 1m3f; last five races on good to firm); has another 4lb rise to contend with and this must be a stronger race.

Three wins (1m-1m4f) in the first half of 2026; last month's Ascot third was up there with her best form but she wasn't quite at the same level back down in class at Chepstow three weeks ago; drops back in trip with each-way claims.

Three-time Flat winner who has also shown promise over hurdles; well beaten in this code last May and bought out of Denis Hogan's yard for £17,000 later that month; absent since but he's one of the likelier winners if at the top of his game on this comeback and stable debut; watch the betting.
