18/1

Four wins from 13 runs this year. 10/3, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good) 14 days ago, kept up to work. This track may not suit quite as well but she's clearly fit and in form.

Forecasts

Jolly Roger (9/4), Candonomore (5/1), Fire Flame (6/1), Arctic Dawn (13/2), Benacre (8/1), Yaaser (12/1), Estrella Divina (12/1), Obelix (14/1), Pal Joey (16/1), Bellarchi (18/1), Heavenly Heather (33/1), Streak Lightning (100/1)

A well-run 7f looks ideal for CANDONOMORE and given he hasn't had much exposure to the AW, there could be more to come from him. 3-y-o Jolly Roger is a threat, along with Benacre.
