Bettered low-key debut when scoring at Chelmsford (6f, AW) last month, form that was franked by the runner-up soon afterwards, but again raced too freely when a weakening sixth of seven at Bath (5.7f, firm) three weeks later; needs to learn to settle better.

Successful on Jersey in May and followed up over 1m2f on AW here in June; his two subsequent efforts have been poor and tries a change of headgear (first-time blinkers in place of cheekpieces) in a bid to get back to form.

Sole turf win was in Jersey this May, preceding a Lingfield AW win in June; tailed off at Newcastle eight days later, which she needs to bounce back from, but the string of seconds (three on good to firm) at this time last year makes this look a good mark.

Regressive maiden who's done a lot of her racing in sprints; pedigree offers some hope going this far for the first time, having stuck on late in first-time cheekpieces over 1m latest, and she has fewer convictions than most.

Reliable as a 2yo, winning Bath maiden in September and running creditably after three months off when fourth in nursery here on Boxing Day; both those runs were over 5f but he stays 6f well; unlikely to be far away.
