Showed pace and hung badly left when 5l seventh of nine on debut at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) a fortnight ago; there's every chance she'll improve but she's vulnerable if any of the newcomers are above average.

Seven-race maiden but she has form form figures of 4223 in handicaps and that latest third was on her reappearance at Bath (5f, good) last month; 1lb lower here and she should be in mix again.

Impressive on debut at Beverley (5f, good to firm) in July and runner-up in Ripon novice (6f, good) next time, before finishing seventh in the Group 2 Lowther at York (6f, good to firm); improvement is needed but the drop back in grade can help, as might the return to 5f; not discounted.

Sole representative for trainer who won this in 2019 and 2022, and she was impressive on debut at Beverley (5f, good to firm) in July; another good run when close second to Dandana at Ripon (6f, good) recently but she has plenty to find in today's company.

First foal; dam 7f winner (RPR 55), sister to winners Digital Age (US 1m1f Grade 1) and Charming Spirit (6f; RPR 78), half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 3 winner Acer Alley; trainer has very healthy 21% strike-rate with 2yos here in the past five seasons and this Mehmas newcomer is one to be interested in.
