All five wins have been at around 1m2f on good or quicker; last success was off 5lb lower but he reappeared with a fair third in Class 4 event over C&D (good to soft) last month; should go well on this drop back in grade and it would be a positive if the ground dries out.

It took 15 races before she got off the mark (Beverley in July) but now she's added a C&D win last Thursday; no handicap good thing under her penalty but she needs respect hot on the heels of a career-best.

Four wins in 2025 and he wasn't far away over 1m1f here in September; in reasonable form this year and this trip will suit better than the 1m4f he ran over at York last time out but it will be a good effort if he can win this off his current mark.

Form & Verdict
Thrice-raced filly whose opening mark is very attractive judged on her clear best effort, namely fourth at Southwell behind three subsequent winners (notably 1,000 Guineas winner Elmalka); out of a 1m2f winner for her connections and looks interesting upped to this distance.
