Form & Verdict
On long losing run but heavily backed on her stable debut at Windsor (1m, good to firm; 11-4 favourite) last Sunday and ran into some trouble before finishing a 3l fourth of nine; that was her best run for some time and this step back up in trip is a positive; interesting contender.

Dual Brighton winner for Jack Jones and disappointing she didn't fare better there back on to turf, after a short break, last time; more consistent on the AW but this is the first time she's run in a 0-50 and she's capable of bouncing back.

Now 0-8; it could have been the idiosyncrasies of Brighton that caused him to hang left when a well-held third there last time, though he did wear blinkers for the first time and probably isn't straightforward; bit to prove.

Form & Verdict
Just one win from 29 runs but he made a good start for this yard when second in a classified event at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) last month; failed to back that up when a remote third here (1m4f) last time but a regular hood was missing and this drop back in trip looks a good move; dangerous with headgear back on.

Has struggled in three maiden/novice events (1m3f/1m4f) this season but it is still early days and she's bred to better than this opening mark; looks a possible improver dropped in trip on handicap debut and needs watching in market.
