Form & Verdict
Has the widest stall for her nursery debut but she showed improved form when mid-division at Redcar (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, when displaying good pace, and she's respected now back down in trip for a trainer whose horses are running well.

Some of last summer's form would give her strong claims at this level and there was a bit more encouragement from her at Southwell on Wednesday, albeit in a weak race; not out of this if she can build on that.

Front-running second of eight on her nursery debut at Beverley in August (5f, good to firm); hasn't built on that since, including on AW on her last three starts; others appeal more.

2 yo Colt

OR: 45

Form & Verdict
Has beaten just one rival across his first three starts (all 6f) and he's pulled hard; however, the first-time hood could have a settling effect and this half-brother to four winners has the plum inside stall for his handicap debut; the drop to 5f could suit and a market move would be interesting.
