Form & Verdict
Kingman filly who fulfilled earlier promise with a narrow success on handicap debut at Carlisle (7f, good to firm; 11-8f); beat an exposed rival there (only 1-11) but this well-bred filly may improve some more and now goes in a hood; raised just 3lb.

With a bit more luck she would have prevailed at Beverley (extended 1m; good) and that was her best run of the season; up just 1lb with Tom Kiely-Marshall again on board.

J: Ryan Sexton

Handles most ground and she's tactically versatile; has been generally reliable this season and she won in a tight finish at Windsor (1m) in August before a creditable third at York (1m1f) last month; still looks on a workable mark and she's respected with cheekpieces reapplied.

It was a deep handicap she contested at Goodwood and in solid form otherwise, winning for a fourth time by a short-head at Windsor 24 days ago (1m, good to firm); clear claims off 2lb higher if in similar form here.

Dual winner as a juvenile but this season hasn't got going at all, beaten 10l+ in all her races; difficult to trust right now.

Close third of five at Redcar (1m) in July and denied a clear run when fourth of 15 at York a fortnight ago on her first crack at 1m2f; she could have more to offer at today's distance, provided conditions suit (fair third on good to soft on debut; unraced on slow ground since).

Form & Verdict
The form of her handicap win at Wetherby (1m, good; 5lb lower) has worked out well and 1m2f perhaps stretched her last time; only had four races and can do better again.

Has had excuses since winning at Wetherby in April and June, the latter at 1m on good ground proving strong form; back near best against an unexposed one at Hamilton (1m1f, heavy) last time and these conditions may suit better; bold show likely if cheekpieces don't put her off.

Won a novice at Wetherby (7f, soft) in April before following up on her handicap debut there (1m, good) in June; was strong at the finish for both those wins but she hasn't found a great deal in her last two runs (1m2f/1m); still lightly raced but she needs to rediscover her spark.

Six-time winner who is suited by good or slower ground; has mixed record this season but she won at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and went very close at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; on same mark as for that last run and she's a big player if she can repeat the form.

Won over C&D on good ground in 2021 and came from off the pace to end long losing streak at Carlisle (1m, soft; first-time blinkers) in June but her form has dipped since that latest success and others in this field have more persuasive profiles.
