On a handy mark on his best AW form last winter and he's also effective on turf; however, he hasn't shone since being short-headed at Lingfield in January and needs to raise his game.

J: Daniel Tudhope

Made giant strides in the second half of 2024 and she carried on the good work when winning in Listed company at Haydock in May (5f, good); struggled at Royal Ascot but of more concern are her two sub-par efforts since; others look more solid.

J: Kieran Shoemark

T: Ed Walker

She has made giant strides since making her handicap debut off a mark of 69 at Haydock last July, winning five times, most recently in Listed race at Haydock in May (5f, good); only ninth at Royal Ascot but she raced furthest from the main action and still looked in peak form; drying ground wouldn't be ideal, though, and she has the widest stall to overcome.

Balmoral Lady

9st 4lb

J: Tom Marquand

T: Ed Walker

Progressive 4yo who made great strides in the autumn with a hat-trick at about 5f on heavy and soft ground; a recent Listed win at Haydock (5f, good) suggests she's still improving, but this is likely to be hard labour.

Form & Verdict
Sprint-bred filly who was bought for 350,000gns at a breeze-up last April but made an underwhelming debut when fourth of five at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month and needs to take a big step forward here.

Justified favouritism at Lingfield (6f) last month on AW/handicap debut, edging ahead towards the finish; has progressive RPRs and looks capable of further improvement; respected.

350,000gns breeze-up 2yo; could be on a fair mark for handicap debut given the RPR she posted when close up in a 6f maiden at Brighton latest (good to firm; first-time tongue-tie); unraced on the AW but strongly considered.

Form & Verdict
Left last year's inauspicious debut a long way behind when close third at triple-digit odds at Windsor (6f, good) three weeks ago, despite racing too freely; could quite plausibly have more improvement to come and features prominently in calculations.
