Form & Verdict
Easily made all at 150-1 at Newbury (6f, good) on second start and has had excuses since, namely a tough task at Royal Ascot then good to soft ground in a Goodwood nursery; however, he was well beaten each time and his claims aren't overly compelling as a result.

All runs on good or quicker; debut winner who bumped into one on her nursery debut at Windsor (6f) and then drifted her way out of contention when a beaten favourite at Goodwood; on a dangerous mark and the tongue-tie could make a difference to her.

Inconsistent but she comfortably made all at 25-1 in a handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last month and ran as well as could be expected in a Listed race at Redcar last time (7f, soft; fifth of six); no surprise to see a bold bid now back in a handicap.
