Nine-race maiden for Ed de Giles, best efforts over 1m6f/2m; enough to prove back down sharply in distance on debut for new stable.

Just behind Balgowan from the front at Lingfield (turf) six weeks ago before giving herself no chance of seeing it out last time (testing 2m1f) thanks to pulling too hard; may well get her own way if that's the plan and should fare better.

Lightly raced and first run at 2m when beaten a shade under 6l at Lingfield (good), though could have been flattered from the front; others have more concrete claims.

Lightly raced maiden who hasn't achieved much in two runs back this year, latterly when a remote fourth of five back on turf.

J: Olivia Tubb

Made low-key seasonal reappearance on Tapeta last month but was placed on handicap debut at Bath (1m6f, soft) in September and remains lightly raced; could have a say if suited by today's much faster ground.
