Sporting Times Sri Lanka Fillies' Handicap

Favourite when winning her second handicap start at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) and 1m2f was perhaps a stretch next time there (again the market leader); not exposed just yet and, although unraced on slow ground, her smart dam handled these conditions; non-runner.

Won a 7f Kempton maiden in May but has finished right out the back in her two handicaps, the latest here only last week when well behind Lady Mariko; non-runner.

Won her first two races on the AW before finishing only seventh when made favourite for handicap debut at Ascot (1m; sole turf start; good to firm); did well to go so close at Kempton last time after fluffing the start and only 1lb higher here; soft ground is a complete unknown, however.

Shaped okay in maiden and novice races (one on soft) before laughing at her opening handicap mark at Chelmsford (1m; hood removed); the handicapper hit back with a 13lb hike but she could well come up with more.

0-8 for the Crisfords; kicked off for current yard with 7f wins on good to firm and good; might be a shade high in the weights now but still ran well to be third here last week (again at 7f; soft) and returning to 1m won't faze her.
