Class 6

9st 9lb

It's now 12 starts since her last win and she beat only two in C&D handicap 19 days ago on her first run since leaving Iain Jardine; needs to take a big step forward for her new yard.

9st 8lb

3lb lower than wen second of eight at Beverley (7f, good to firm) in June, but hasn't beaten many in four subsequent starts; needs the change of stable to help bring about a resurgence.

Form & Verdict

Raced three times for Eric Alston, winning at Redcar (7f) on second occasion; form isn't particularly compelling but he's still unexposed; heed the market signals on debut for John Quinn.

Form & Verdict

Veteran who still retains a fair amount of ability judged on his third-place finish at Doncaster last time; however, looks vulnerable back in a much deeper field.
