Form & Verdict
Her dam was a US Grade 3 winner and she easily made all at 13-2 on her debut at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) in September; that was an impressive start to her career and she holds strong claims under a 7lb penalty today.

Ran out the easy winner of a 6f novice at Kempton on her debut last September; disappointed at Lingfield on her reappearance, second of four having been weak in the market (hung right); moves into handicaps with potential and this track lends itself to her racing style; one to consider.

Finds winning races difficult (2-25) but both wins have been over C&D, the latest in a similar contest (good to firm) last Tuesday; carries a 5lb penalty but looks sure to run his race.

Sole win in 24 starts came in a 0-55 handicap over C&D (good) in May last year; beaten just under 2l into fourth of nine behind Washington Heir here (5f, good) three weeks ago, but may be better over this trip these days; a player despite his wide draw.

Just 1-23 albeit the win came in a 0-55 handicap here (6f, good) just over a year ago; runner-up in last two starts at Lingfield (6f, AW) and Bath (5.7f, good to firm) and it may be that a bit further and good or faster ground suits him best, but he still holds strong claims in this company.

There's potential in her pedigree but he failed to beat a rival on her two runs for David Evans in August 2023; absent since and probably best watched on her stable debut.
