Was held in fourth in a maiden plate (Vaal) nine days ago; represents top trainer; could be involved as shown some signs of promise and good draw could make things easier.

Could not manage better than fifth dropped down to 6f (Vaal) 44 days ago in a maiden plate; just her fourth outing so still early days; may have to settle for supporting role.

Beaten seventh of 11 at Vaal over 7f (maiden plate) last month; lightly raced (this just her third race); must go on the shortlist as appeals from a breeding angle.
