Comment: 0-8 but he's been more competitive since gelded/switched to handicaps, finishing in the first three on four occasions; made the running at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) last time out but dropped away late on; drops back to 1m and returns to turf in a change of headgear to try to find improvement.

Comment: Finished well when third of eight over 7f here in May before returning to 1m at Bath (good; fifth has won since) where she was third of ten, just unable to sustain a promising move into contention under Fred Daly; still unexposed after six starts and she's a likely contender.
