Gained a first win of 2026 at Pontefract (1m) in June but he beat only one in 1m Redcar handicap a week ago; much more is required from this course scorer.

T: Nigel Tinkler

Clearcut winner in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m, good) in June and probably bettered that form when very close second at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month but was below form after racing too freely over C&D three weeks ago and needs to bounce back with a career best.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up off 1lb higher at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) in June but she's not easy to predict and has finished in rear in last two starts; wasn't beaten far back at Beverley last time but record is now 1-14 and others are more convincing.

Knocking on the door prior to winning at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in July and she followed up at Leicester (1m, good to firm); only fifth of seven back at Doncaster last month but that may have come too soon, just six days after Leicester; this 3yo could rediscover her progressive ways today.
