Scored at her last two starts. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 11 m as favourite broke at Bendigo on April 30 (10m Fr4) at Bendigo (2:43.90) beating Royal Charlotte in No NR on April 30 at $3.60 at the bell was 4th-6.95. Hard to leave out on current form. Must respect winning form.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace
