In good form this season prior to being awarded a 7f Leicester handicap two weeks ago; 3lb higher mark to deal with today but she's had few chances over this trip on good ground or quicker and could yet rate higher.

Half-brother to the stable's dual 1m6f Group 2 winner Sumo Sam; like him, he's shown he goes well on soft ground, in his case when easily making all in a Newmarket maiden (7f) before his front-running fourth of eight when tongue tied in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster (1m); had wind surgery early last month; should stay well but may need a lot of rain.

Runner-up on first two starts (6f/7f, good to soft/soft) then easily made all in Newmarket maiden (7f, soft) last month; takes a leap in grade but this half-brother to the stable's two-time 1m6f Group 2 winner Sumo Sam is open to further improvement now up in trip; tongue-tie goes on; not discounted.

Fitted with blinkers for the first time when making all in a 6f maiden at Dundalk in April; he has followed that with three solid placed efforts in Irish sprint handicaps; ran well in his one run on good to firm ground (as a 2yo); should give his running but minor money perhaps his best hope.

In top hands and returned to form with fair fifth of eight in first-time blinkers over C&D (soft) recently on second nursery start; however, he needs to raise his game if he's to get off the mark today; a first-time visor replaces the blinkers (has now worn new headgear on each of last three runs).
