3 yo Filly

OR: 74

Form & Verdict
Ran to a similar level in three AW starts last autumn (7f-1m); dam was a sprinter, so she has stamina to prove on her turf debut, back from six months off, but she about sets the standard.

J: Luke Morris

T: Sir Mark Prescott Bt

Held up this season, winning four of those five starts; that includes 1m4f handicaps at Epsom (good), Catterick (soft) and Thirsk (good) on last three outings, well on top when forging clear on the last two occasions and she's well treated under a penalty for scoring last Saturday.

J: Dylan Hogan

T: Sir Mark Prescott Bt

Held up this season, winning a 1m2f novice at Bath (firm) in May and 1m4f handicaps at Epsom (good) and Catterick (soft) in July; up another 8lb but she stayed on strongly to forge clear last time and is open to more progress; strong contender in hat-trick bid.

Form & Verdict
Best effort, upped to this trip on her turf debut, at Ascot a fortnight ago; will find this less competitive and there's little to choose between her and Bosphorus Rose on these terms.

T: Ian Williams

Still a maiden (0-12) but she's been consistent (form figures 26253) since joining Ian Williams; drops back in trip having failed to see out 1m4f at Southwell (third of six, beaten 5l) 24 days ago.

J: Ryan Kavanagh

T: Ian Williams

Runner-up over 1m/1m2f on two of her last four starts (including here) but she made it 0-11 when soundly beaten in 1m3f handicap here last time and this exposed 4yo may be vulnerable once more.

Form & Verdict
240,000gns yearling who started slowly and had little chance trying to come from off a muddling pace in 1m Newcastle event three weeks ago; will have learned plenty from that.

Pergola

9st 8lb

J: Cieren Fallon

T: William Haggas

Steadily progressive daughter of Wootton Bassett who made a successful handicap debut at Epsom (1m2f) in July; aggressively ridden when a good fourth of eight at Yarmouth (11.5f) a week ago so she's a likely player off the same mark for yard well among the winners.

Pergola

9st 7lb

J: Tom Marquand

T: William Haggas

Made most and rallied well to win at Epsom (1m2f) in July on handicap debut, officially on good ground but probably good to firm; it had rained when disappointing favourite off this 4lb higher mark at Sandown (1m2f, good) two weeks later, chasing leaders before finding little; she's a player on the Epsom win and, as a 3yo, could have more to give.
