Readily beat Dallas Star in last year's weaker renewal, but was tailed off in Irish St Leger; respectable runs behind top stayer Scandinavia on goodish ground first two starts this term; well beaten on soft behind Layfayette in June; overlooked by stable jockey; tongue-tie goes on. |

Fourth in Chester Cup and Ascot Stakes last season; won four-runner St Leger Trial at the Curragh in August; failed to do himself justice when tailed off in Irish St Leger; made late progress into fourth behind Scandinavia at Navan on return; ran to a similar level when fourth of six in Group 3 Saval Beg at Leopardstown; should be sharper now. |

Has won five races up to 1m1f from 34 Flat starts; fine runs in defeat in premier handicaps at Leopardstown and Galway over the summer but was a bit below that level in the Cambridgeshire here last time; can be keen so needs to settle better. |

Useful Flat performer, winning three times and placing on a further nine occasions from 17 turf starts; took third at Gowran in April (1m4f, soft) and went one place better when beaten a neck at Musselburgh next time (2m, good); has often been frustrating, as shown by hurdles record 1-20; second eight times. |

Record of 1-19 over timber; three-time winner on the Flat has placed in two starts in that sphere since falling over hurdles at Leopardstown in March; recent form suggests she's fit and healthy but poor strike rate over hurdles is off-putting. |

Three-time Flat winner, went up 11lb for a convincing success in a 1m4f handicap at Tramore last month; subsequent runs in a Flat handicap at Galway and a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan raise significant doubts; well enough treated by the race conditions if recapturing form. |
