Just 1-13, winning a C&D maiden (good) in May, but he had some decent 2yo form and ran creditably in a better race than this at York in June, considering he was slowly away and that test would have been on the sharp side; unsuited by heavy ground at Chester recently but can do better here.

Group 3 winner over 7f last season and made her belated reappearance in August a winning one at Listed level (1m, good); although only sixth of the ten runners in a Group 3 at Sandown (1m, good to soft), she was behind the black ball when about last 2f out and she was closing at the finish (behind Moon Target/Secret Of Life); that effort warrants an upgrade and she wouldn't be exposed just yet.
