Gained her debut win over 6f but the way she shaped over a stiff 7f last time (handicap debut) suggests this step up to 1m will suit; pedigree suggests she should do better still; not dismissed.

Hooded both starts; never raced smoothly from the word go on Salisbury debut (6f) so did well to force a dead-heat on the line; looked more professional when third under a penalty at Thirsk (7f; also good to firm) four weeks ago and this stiffer test at the trip can suit; should improve.

J: Robbie Downey

T: Roger Varian

Hooded for Salisbury debut (6f, good to firm) last July where she raced with her head on one side virtually throughout but showed spunk to force a dead-heat; off since and it's hard to judge the merit of that muddling race but the new trip shouldn't be a problem; can give it a good shot.

New Bay half-sister to 6f 2yo winner Fondo Blanco (RPR 89), out of Group-placed 7f scorer (99); perhaps a buzzy sort (wears hood on debut) but is suitably bred.
