Completed a hat-trick in turf handicaps over 7f/1m in the summer and put up an even better effort when second of ten in a Group 3 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in September; disappointed when seventh of ten in a Listed contest at Ascot (7f, good) last month (behind two of these) and needs to bounce back from that now returned to the AW.

Acts on any ground; emphatic winner at the York Ebor festival, completing a handicap hat-trick; subsequently a good second, behind a useful filly who dictated the pace, in the Sceptre Stakes at Doncaster (7f); progressive 3yo who should continue to do well; respected.

Fast-improving filly who looked well ahead of the assessor since handicapping, most recently beating 17 rivals in emphatic style at the York Ebor festival when dropped back to 7f; versatile ground-wise; looks a potential Group performer and comes here on a roll; interesting upped in class.

J: Hector Crouch

T: Ralph Beckett

Well-connected filly; conservative placing has paid off in Haydock handicaps with emphatic wins over 7f (good to soft) and 1m (heavy), looking better the further she went each time; up further 5lb for latest win but a bigger worry is how she will cope with the first run on good to firm; has plenty going for her if the going suits.

J: Hector Crouch

T: Ralph Beckett

Kept on for promising third in 7f AW novice in June on her third start and improved when a comfortable winner here on last month's handicap debut (7f, good to soft; unraced on softer); this unexposed, well-bred 3yo could have more to offer now back up to 1m and may well take a 7lb rise in her stride.
