7f win here in April off 3lb lower; promising return 12 days ago; needs good test at 6f

C&D win in the spring; quiet last time but fair mark and conditions won't be an excuse

On a losing run and recent efforts need bettering; this is a marked drop in grade though

Latest Southwell 3rd was a fair effort but she is still to prove herself on slow ground
