Commentary

Won twice for Dan Skelton and shaped as if retaining her ability after 18 months off when fourth of 7 at Fakenham (2½m, good to firm) in April. Presumably had her issues to not have been seen since so percentage call is to look elsewhere.

What the class read says

Has campaigned at a higher grade and now drops into weaker company. Dropping in class here looks deliberate, not a concession. A caution, though: it has NOT been beating its handicap mark — the favourable class picture isn't yet backed by mark-adjusted finishes.

Held its own mid-division in 2 of 2 stronger races — solid form context.

Dropping 3 class levels from its toughest race — well-positioned today.
