Commentary

Ran close to her fairly useful best on stable debut on the Flat but did little to encourage sent hurdling at Newton Abbot back in June. Has finished down the field in 4 Flat handicaps since (latest in first-time cheekpieces) so best watched for now.

What the projection says

Finishes ahead of its price historically, but the delivery record alone does not predict today's finish — it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 3rd of 9. Recent form is on the up.
