Won over C&D (good) in May in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); pulled hard when 7l third at Leicester (1m, good) next time and down the field at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) most recently, but the return to Ripon could trigger a revival.

Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Ripon (1m, good) in May; it's a concern she pulled hard when no match for the front two at Leicester (1m, good) last time but if settling better she could be a force.

Fair third for Jamie Osborne on debut at Southwell last September; subsequently sold for 7,000gns; beaten 23l on stable debut at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) last month.

Didn't get the best of runs when a close third in a Southwell novice last September (7f); has since been sold out of Jamie Osborne's yard for 7,000gns; quite interesting on stable debut.

Didn't live up to market billing in two handicap runs for George Boughey this year; new stable quick to step her up in trip and she's an interesting contender.

Clear second at Redcar (7f, good) last month, despite racing too freely in first-time cheekpieces (now removed), and has now performed well on all three starts for new stable this year; still unexposed over 1m; respected.

Only beaten half a length on stable debut over C&D (good) last month on his return from 192 days off and not disgraced when fifth of 13 in a slightly better race at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) on Monday; interesting back here with cheekpieces given a go.
