Commentary

C&D novice winner on second start last November. Has built up an all or nothing profile this season, her best efforts on the turf rather than all-weather and needs to back up her recent third at Leicester. Others more persuasive.

What the projection says

Beating its price historically confirms the short-priced top pick — model and market read it the same way. Projected 2nd of 10. Recent form is easing off.
