Had a fair bit of racing but back to her very best with cheekpieces refitted, going back-to-back over C&D on soft and heavy ground; did it comfortably enough last week to seriously consider under a penalty (effectively only 2lb higher with Pippa Brown claiming 3lb).

A switch to cheekpieces saw her bounce back to top form when winning over C&D (soft; five of today's rivals behind) 18 days ago; up 4lb but respected with underfoot conditions to suit.
