Won four times in amateur races for Brodie Hampson last year; sent off at huge prices and she's struggled in three runs this month; dropped 7lb as a result and Hollie Doyle takes over; interesting to see if there's any market interest now down in class.

Won by 4l at Hamilton in June and has had a 54-day break, which may facilitate a return to form; however, she was well beaten on her last two starts and all three wins have come at Hamilton.

Didn't have the race run to suit down to 1m here last Friday and needs considering on her previous C&D near-miss (four of tonight's rivals behind); goes on the shortlist.

Well handicapped and travelled well before going down narrowly over 1m2f here recently; the obvious worry is that it's been a long time since she ran over 1m (stays 1m4f).

Form & Verdict
Well beaten over C&D in April when last seen and it's hard to be confident in his claims on this comeback; however, this four-time Flat winner (including C&D) is on a handy mark on last year's form and is not discounted.

Won this in 2021; tends to be all or nothing these days and his latest C&D fourth at a big price, when getting no peace in front (King Of Unicorns behind), was more like it on his second run back from a break.

Form & Verdict
Losing run goes back 18 races to 2021 and his form has been patchy this year, with a heavy defeat at Epsom latest; however, he's been second off higher marks on two of his five starts this term and isn't written off.
