Has won three times here, including over C&D; below par on her last two starts of last season; yet to win when fresh but has run well after a break; on a competitive mark if she is ready.

1m AW Flat winner and 2m hurdle winner; not ground dependent; sliding in the weights after three below-par efforts this year; handy mark if revived but there's a bit to prove at present.

Soft-ground bumper winner last season who has so far disappointed over hurdles; has had wind surgery since last seen in February; if that has helped, he's on a handy mark based on that bumper success; not written off.
