Won 1m novices (AW/good turf) on first two starts six months apart; improved again when third on Newbury handicap debut (1m, good to firm) last July and that form has been franked by the first two; her ability to handle going softer than good has to be taken on trust but it's likely this lightly raced 4yo has bigger performances in her.

Form & Verdict

Completed an AW hat-trick (all at around 1m on Tapeta) when trained by Charlie Appleby; had a wind operation prior to his stable debut at Newcastle in June (1m; after 518 days off) and he responded well to pressure, narrowly beaten into fourth in a blanket finish; poor run on soft turf at Doncaster next time but he's better than that and still has potential back on AW.
