8st 8lb

J: Edward Greatrex

T: Ralph Beckett

Won Nottingham novice (1m2f, good to firm) in June on fourth start and she's since been a clear second to unexposed handicap newcomers in two small-field contests (1m2f, good to firm; subsequent winner Silver Lake on the first occasion); she may yet have a bigger performance in her.

J: Rhys Clutterbuck

T: Ralph Beckett

Has taken a while to get the hang of things, but improved form last two starts, winning novice in small field at Nottingham and pulling clear with the winner when second in handicap at Salisbury (both 1m2f, good to firm); tactically versatile and looks the one to beat.

9st 6lb

J: Hector Crouch

T: Ralph Beckett

Pulled hard when beaten at odds-on on her 7f comeback; it's not hard to pick holes in her Nottingham novice win, upped to this trip 16 days ago, but she did it in decent style and is unexposed entering handicap company; still holds an entry in next weekend's Irish Oaks.

9st 2lb

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Ralph Beckett

Bettered her debut effort when runner-up to subsequent Listed-placed Sacred Ground at Yarmouth (1m, good) last October but she was disappointing on her reappearance at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) 27 days ago, dropping away after racing too freely; that may have taken the freshness out of her but she needs to settle better on her first try over 1m2f.

J: Rossa Ryan

T: Ralph Beckett

Bettered mildly encouraging 2yo debut when clear second of five behind very useful rival at Yarmouth (1m, good) in October; this drop back in trip is not an obvious move, but she should have more improvement to come this season and her Irish Oaks entry suggests she's held in some regard.
