returned to firmer ground, bounced back to best to land her first success in listed company, just doing enough to hold the runner-up at bay having been better placed than her throughout; in touch, led on bridle under 3f out, shaken up soon after, tackled last ½f, kept on well, just held on; this wasn't a strong race for the grade, but will continue to give a good account nonetheless.

had produced a career-best on reappearance and progressed again back up in grade, evidently an improved model this year and arguably unlucky not to prevail again given she challenged from much further back than the winner, whilst not getting a clear run either; in rear, pushed along over 2f out, had to wait for gap until over 1f out, finished well, just failed; should remain competitive.
