OR: 68

Form & Verdict
Gained due reward for her consistency when making it 12th-time lucky in a Hamilton novice (6f, soft) 15 days ago; acts on good to firm; relatively exposed but very likely to run her race and worth respect on nursery debut.

Won two in a row (6f maiden/5f nursery) in August but not in quite the same form since, fading when fourth of seven at Newcastle 16 days ago; having her 18th run and looks exposed.

Progressed well as 2yo and has kept the momentum going since switched to Tapeta back from a break, scoring narrow 5f wins at Newcastle (led close home) and seeming to win with a bit in hand over C&D 18 days ago; unlikely that a further 3lb rise will prevent another bold show.

T: Nigel Tinkler

Several near misses as a 2yo and he overcame trouble in running to make a winning return at Newcastle 19 days ago (5f); that form has a solid look to it and although this track will present a slightly different test, he still looks feasibly weighted up 4lb.

Form & Verdict
Hamilton winner (5f, good to firm) in June and second of four in a Sandown nursery (5f, heavy) on penultimate start, but well held at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) 12 days ago; tongue-tie given a go, but others are more convincing.

Beat Ticktyboo over C&D (soft) in May and he's run well in defeat in three of his last four starts; wouldn't look to have much in hand of this mark though.

J: Daniel Tudhope

His form can be up and down but he won at Redcar (5f, soft) in May and went close at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last month; he didn't enjoy the best of passages when close fifth at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last time in a first-time visor (retained) and he could be in the shake-up.

Form & Verdict
Built on a promising debut when successful at Beverley (5f, good to soft) in April, but well held under her penalty at Goodwood (5f, good to soft) the following month and not seen since; still unexposed and respected on nursery debut if the break has done her good.

Form & Verdict
Has shown ability, as when a close third of 14 on nursery debut at Catterick (5f, good) last month, but didn't build on it when behind Be Here Now at Musselburgh (5f, good) 13 days later; has shown a tendency to hang and others appeal more.
