Progressive on the AW over the winter, winning three 6f handicaps; further progress back on turf this summer, winning competitive Class 4 events in May and June before coming up just shy in her hat-trick bid last week (hit top gear too late); likely there is better to come from her but this is a step up in class.

Three AW wins during the winter and she's found more progress when scoring over C&D (good) and at Newbury (6f, good to firm) in last two starts; up another 5lb but she should get a good tow into this race and is strongly respected in hat-trick bid.

Disappointing this year, latterly over 7f; sold out of Richard Spencer's yard for 10,000gns since last run; however, combination of drop in grade and return to 6f may spark a revival on debut for new yard.

Runner-up in this race last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Chester (5f, good) last July; never a threat on his reappearance at Lingfield (6f) last month but he pulled hard and this drop back in trip is a positive; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if he gets the breaks.
