Form & Verdict
A fair 1m juvenile winner in 2022 but she failed to kick on in handicaps over a variety of trips last term for Freddie and Martyn Meade; jumped awkwardly and always behind on first start for her new yard after 12 months off over C&D (80-1) 16 days ago; hard to fancy.

Form & Verdict
Dual AW winner (one of those over C&D); has shown improved form of late, winning at Thirsk (1m, good to soft) last month and beaten a neck at Pontefract (1m, soft) two weeks ago; warrants respect back in this sphere.

Three wins from an extended 7f to 1m for current yard but beaten 18l on both starts this season, including only a fortnight ago, so doesn't obviously arrive in much form; has first-time cheekpieces added to her regular tongue-tie.

Has a patchy profile but she's won twice this year including a comfortable one under Myla Coppins at Brighton (1m2f classified) last time; hard to rule out another good run, but her turf wins have been on good/good to firm and it would be a concern if the conditions become testing.

Four-race maiden who didn't improve as expected when sixth of 11 on her handicap debut at Southwell (7f) 16 days ago following wind surgery with a tongue-tie fitted (retained); she might have needed that run and is worth keeping an eye on.

Both wins have come on Tapeta at Wolverhampton, the latest on her reappearance (9.5f) in April when trained by Kevin Frost; probably didn't stay on stable debut there (1m4f) four weeks ago but still has enough to prove, especially from the outside stall.
