Comment: Has winning C&D form to her name; running consistently; not beaten far in an allowance optional claimer with three of these in behind 25 days ago; plenty of appeal.

Comment: Ended losing spell in an allowance optional claimer on first run for her current trainer 21 days ago; is a specialist at this trip; could be dangerous as recent win points to her being able to handle class rise.
