Form & Verdict
March foal by Saxon Warrior; first foal; dam 6f 2yo winner (RPR 84), sister to useful 1m4f-2m winner Spirit Mixer, half-sister to 1m2f Group 2 winner See The Fire, out of Juddmonte International winner Arabian Queen; faces a stiff task against Birdcall on debut and his pedigree suggests he may need further in due course, but sire's record of 14-64 (22%) here in past five seasons is encouraging; market crucial.

Ex-Clive Cox; touched off at Kempton (7f; 13-2) on final start for that trainer; picked up for 24,000gns soon after, but didn't shine on Ripon stable debut (1m; sixth of 11) ten weeks ago; shorter trip and AW return are helpful.

All five runs for Clive Cox on AW, going close in four-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) last month; sold for 24,000gns since; has shaped as though this step up to 1m is worth a go; one to consider on stable/turf debut.

22-1 when a well-beaten eighth of nine on her Kempton debut (6f, Polytrack) this month; will need a huge transformation to trouble stablemate Birdcall.

Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; respectable sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before two visits to Chester where she was scuppered by the widest stall on the first occasion and then raced freely when better drawn a month ago; could go well if giving herself a chance.

Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; good sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before scuppered by the widest stall over 7f here four weeks ago; better boxed this afternoon and she likes to be handy in her races; interesting.

A four-time AW winner (from 5f to 7f) this year and ran really well when third over 7.5f here (good) in May; too keen when well held in big-field Goodwood handicap (7f) but looked back in form when sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) 15 days ago; drawn widest.

0-4; failed to take step forward on Ripon handicap debut (6f; seventh of nine, 28-1; always towards rear); still early days but, equally, there's little to suggest that she can play a role in the finish.

Thrice-raced filly who holds weak claims on form but may be capable of improvement now handicapping with Catterick reappearance under her belt; check the betting for further guidance.

Fifth of nine on Newcastle AW debut in a 6f fillies' maiden (7-1) last October, but took a backward step at Southwell (5f; 33-1, last of five) a few weeks later; off for 224 days since so she couldn't be the pick on this turf debut; monitor only.
