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.

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.

A bit disappointing in Group 3 at Haydock (1m4f, good) four weeks ago, when she faded into seventh; however, she was progressive in handicaps last season and reappeared with a staying-on second in a Group 3 against her own sex at York (1m6f, good to soft) in May; has potential for this 2m trip and she's a player if tapping back into the promise shown at York.

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.

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.

Ex-Irish filly who's with her fourth yard already having rather struggled over hurdles latterly, including in headgear; tried in a first-time tongue-tie tonight and it remains to be seen whether she's still up to this sort of mark on the Flat.

Recent efforts not inspiring, but she has dropped 6lb lower than when making a successful return in May last year and the booking of Simon Walker suggests connections mean business; blinkers (only used once before over hurdles in September 2021) make a return; interesting.

Scored off 3lb higher at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) last May but she's not matched that since and was only tenth of 11 here (9.4f) last month; has some form over C&D but she needs a major revival back up in trip.

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.
