Form & Verdict

J: George Wood

T: Richard Spencer

Game effort to win a Newmarket handicap (6f, good to firm) last July and she is now 4lb lower; bounced back from some modest efforts when just missing out in a 7f handicap at Yarmouth 19 days ago (good ground; cheekpieces first time), pulling clear with a mare who has since run well in a Group 3; might not have to work too hard to get the stands' rail and she looks to hold strong claims.

May not have achieved much when fourth of ten at Southwell (7f, Tapeta; first-time blinkers) last month, but her record here reads 2212; still has stamina to prove, but interesting down another 2lb in the returning cheekpieces.

First runner in Lemos De Souza's name; best form at Chelmsford and her second there last October off a 140-day break was a fine effort; bitterly disappointing elsewhere since and tries another new track this afternoon; more severe headgear is reached for (blinkers replace cheekpieces).

Latest effort is best ignored, with it all going wrong at the start (also said to have been showing signs of coming into season); she can be buzzy anyway and this is tougher than the Brighton handicaps she's been contesting.

Has finished third in three of her four runs including on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW; 100-30) last month; has taken a strong hold at times and this unexposed filly could find more on this drop to 5f; in the mix.

She has improved with each of her three starts, most recently finishing second of nine over 7f here last month; should be pacy enough to cope with 6f but she'll likely need improvement to win a maiden.

Progressive last year for Rae Guest (C&D winner) and won at Haydock (6f, good) last month on third start for this yard, for which she deserves extra credit having had to switch around runners; soundly beaten on AW since but has never shone on that surface; she's one to consider now back on turf.

Excellent strike-rate in 6f turf handicaps for Rae Guest in 2024, winning three from four (good and good to firm); down the field in two runs for new yard this season but she made some late headway to finish a close fourth at Chepstow last time; now only 2lb higher than for her last win and she's in the mix.

She has finished last of seven in two novice runs, more recently when sent off at 200-1 at Lingfield last month; handicaps over further will prove more suitable in time.

Unraced on softer than good; won four of her seven handicaps, the latest win in good style under Millie Wonnacott at Newbury in July; easily her worst display in those races, however, came off this 8lb higher mark at Windsor (again 1m2f on good to firm) on her only start since, when reportedly fractious in the preliminaries; needs to bounce back with another improved show.
