Form & Verdict

80,000gns Sioux Nation half-sister to four winners including Encourageable (7f AW/1m turf; RPR 100); no impact at Thirsk (5f, good) for Mick Appleby in April but she ran green before making some late headway; should be more streetwise this time and she's a likely improver for new yard.

Form & Verdict

Beaten around 6l in two novice events at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last summer, with RPRs in the 50s on both occasions; has had wind surgery but she needs a transformation dropped in trip after a year off.

Form & Verdict

Second of 20 in a sales race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last August is his clear standout effort and a repeat would make him hard to beat; suffered heavy defeats in his next two starts but he returned after wind surgery with a respectable fourth at Brighton two weeks ago; needs to build on that but blinkers could help and he's still lightly raced; respected.
