Doesn't win too often (1-20) albeit is difficult to knock in terms of consistency (recent Southwell form figures read 3224); kept on at the one-pace when fourth over 1m4f latest - Princess Harley, Cold Harbour & Going Native being the 1/2/3.

10/1

Poor strike-rate (1-27 on the AW); holding her own of late from a very similar mark, but the form book indicates that she'll struggle to beat the likes of Princess Harley and Cold Harbour.

Forecasts

Cold Harbour (11/10), Princess Harley (5/2), Sociologist (13/2), Jamacho (7/1), Going Native (10/1), Tyrsal (20/1)

A rematch (over a different trip) for old foes PRINCESS HARLEY, Cold Harbour, Going Native, Sociologist and Tyrsal, with the Charlie Longsdon-trained jumpers' bumper winner Jamacho gatecrashing an otherwise exclusive party. The selection was given a 3lb rise for beating Cold Harbour by a head over 1m4f here 17 days ago, but actually renews rivalry on better terms owing to the 5lb penalty incurred by Robyn Brisland's charge for last week's follow-up win.
