Second-up this prep she was 5th of 6 at Thistledown over 1106m on 20 Apr, beaten 13.3L on fast going after settling 3rd, with 54kg. Prior run was 6th of 8 at Mahoning Valley over 1207m on 3 Nov, beaten 23.3L at $5.50 after racing handy. The 3yo filly draws barrier 4 again for Rocco Bowen and Timothy E. Hamm. Needs sharp improvement but has place claims with a softer run.
