Return to 1m should suit after Navan defeat at 1m2f, trainer also runs A Lilac Rolla

Excellent second behind Porta Fortuna in the Cheveley Park, the trip may be an issue

Placed on both starts at two, 82-rated filly can left out of calculations in this grade

Dan won this in 2007 but she is still a maiden and is likely to be well out of her depth
