Consistent since handicapping, again giving her running off this mark over C&D last month; no obvious reason she won't go well again but she needs to find a bit more from somewhere.

Out of an unraced sister to useful stayer Mahler, so it's fair to assume this much stiffer test will suit now handicapping back from ten months off; well worth tracking in the market.

Largely consistent filly who scored at Newcastle (12.5f) in August and went close on her last two appearances (1m4f/1m5f); probably still on a workable mark and ought to be right in the thick of things again.

Better with each start, culminating in a solid second upped to this trip on Polytrack last time; family tends to improve with time and she's one of the likelier winners now handicapping.

More to prove on softer than good, although close third in a maiden hurdle on testing ground; hurdles win in May before comfortably justifying favouritism at Fairyhouse in June on first Flat run for current stable; followed up by a neck at Newbury (again over an extended 1m5f on good) four weeks ago; stays 1m6f and this progressive 4yo is far from ruled out by 3lb rise.

Found a weak, small-field classified event when winning early in the month and it was all too much here last time; half-sister to two sprinters and she has stamina to prove going beyond 1m2f for the first time.

Miss Harmony

Lacks consistency on turf but has a win and a close second to her name in two runs over C&D; whether she'll reproduce last month's near-miss, which came in first-time cheekpieces off 2lb lower, is far from certain after a tame one on the AW since.

From a decent family (tend to be happiest on slow ground and she's yet to tackle going faster than good); hasn't achieved anything exciting in three runs but starts handicap life at a sensible level for her powerful yard, in a first-time tongue-tie.

Much better since handicapping in cheekpieces, albeit she's been allowed a soft lead a couple of times; otherwise, she's 2lb lower than when showing this trip within range under a penalty last Thursday and having another 5lb knocked off won't hurt.
