9st 6lb

J: Hector Crouch

T: Ralph Beckett

Pulled hard when beaten at odds-on on her 7f comeback; it's not hard to pick holes in her Nottingham novice win, upped to this trip 16 days ago, but she did it in decent style and is unexposed entering handicap company; still holds an entry in next weekend's Irish Oaks.

9st 2lb

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Ralph Beckett

Bettered her debut effort when runner-up to subsequent Listed-placed Sacred Ground at Yarmouth (1m, good) last October but she was disappointing on her reappearance at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) 27 days ago, dropping away after racing too freely; that may have taken the freshness out of her but she needs to settle better on her first try over 1m2f.

Has started her handicap career with solid placed efforts at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) and Thirsk (1m, good); likely to go well again

Won 2yo novice at York (6f, good) last October on second start; mid-division in Listed race later that month and reappeared with good second on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm); stayed on well last time and this step up to 1m could prompt further improvement; lots to like.

J: William Buick

T: Jane Chapple-Hyam

Second on debut last autumn; comeback run on Tapeta was too bad to be true and she got back on track upped to this trip (good to firm) last time when beaten a neck at Doncaster; the sex allowance brings her into the equation for an in-form yard, under William Buick (10-43 for them).

J: Charles Bishop

T: Eve Johnson Houghton

Started this season with two wins at Nottingham (8.3f, good) but she's been well held in her last two starts; didn't get the best of runs at Sandown last time but she needs to find more on this step up to 1m2f.

Commenced her campaigned with a couple of Class 5 wins at Nottingham (1m) but came up short off current mark in Class 4 at Windsor in hat-trick bid; that defeat exposes her limitations somewhat.
