Form & Verdict
35,000euros yearling, resold 5,000gns yearling; by Saxon Warrior; unraced dam closely related to Qatar 5.5f/6f winner Shellbrook, half-sister to winners Southern Lights (useful 1m2f) and W G Grace (6f AW 2yo); yard's 2yos have begun the season well and jockey bookings suggest this one could be the first string.

Stable has historically done well with early-season 2yos but is 0-14 this term; this one couldn't land a blow when over 5l fourth of six at Wolverhampton (5f, AW; 22-1) 17 days ago and needs to improve.

Regressive on the AW earlier in the year for this yard, having missed a year, but the return to turf and drop to 0-55 company did the trick under Rossa Ryan last time; going back up 7lb will test him but he's only had a handful of starts on grass and may well be up to it.
