Five-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at Newcastle and this track. Last start failed to make any headway until the straight; raced back and made ground from the turn; won by a neck when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at Newcastle (2:26.30) beating Magnetic Storm in on May 22 at $11 at the bell was 8th-22.33. Can continue her strong form.

Good run when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Cassius Deck at Menangle over 1609m on May 14 at $18. Then a handy effort when a close second behind The Metal Flyer at this track over 1720m on May 21 at $5. Tricky draw but is working towards a win.
