Beverley novice winner in September 2024 when trained by Edward Bethell (7.5f, good); best effort this yard came when a close-up third at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) in May but below that level in three starts since; others preferred.

Sole victory (for Edward Bethell) came in September 2024; added to a patchy record with a below-par seventh of ten in 7f Southwell AW handicap in July; others are preferred.

9st 8lb

J: David Nolan

T: Bryan Smart

Lightly raced 4yo who has a patchy profile and finished last at Carlisle (6f, soft) four weeks ago; however, the ground may not have suited and prior to that she kept on well for close third there (6f, good to soft), hinting this return to 7f could be a positive; not discounted on AW debut.

Low-mileage 4yo who has dropped to 6f for last two starts; gradually back to form this season for new stable, close third over C&D (good to soft) most recently; possibilities off same mark.

9st 6lb

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Bryan Smart

High in weights when first handicapping, following a Beverley novice win (about 7f) as 2yo, but was down 10lb from her opening mark when a never-nearer sixth at Catterick (6f, good) last week on second run for yard; this stiff test looks sure to suit and she has a good run in her.
