Ready winner of a Class 6 handicap at Nottingham in May off 5lb lower; career-best RPR when chasing home Sacred Falls at Ayr 17 days ago (6f, soft) but the winner may well confirm the placings despite 2lb better terms.

The winner of two of her six races, picking up nicely to land a Class 6 handicap at Nottingham in May (6f, good to firm); that effort promised better but her subsequent absence is slightly disconcerting; versatile where the ground is concerned.

Only third to Squealer at Doncaster last time but it wasn't a bad run and she's got a squeak on her best form this season; ran well at the Dante meeting on her one visit to York.

J: Adam Farragher

Looked good when winning on soft ground at Beverley in May and ran to a similar level when second of 14 in a good sprint at Epsom on Derby day; slowly away but disappointing nevertheless at Doncaster last time; still capable of better and has an experienced apprentice booked.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark in similar event at Catterick (5f, good to firm) last time; half-brother to two multiple winners for his connections, so should improve further; respected under 6lb penalty.

Catterick winner as a 2yo and he's been placed three times this season, including C&D; handicapper giving him a chance and he holds each-way claims in a race that could be run to suit.

Not proving the easiest to catch right this term but his best recent effort came at 5f on AW when third of ten at Wolverhampton in August; now 3lb lower and he's in the mix if able to repeat that form.
