T: David Loughnane

Yet to win on the AW but she has gone close on several occasions, including when fifth at Kempton in December; runner-up twice over 7f here but both her successes have come over this trip; Rossa Ryan a positive booking.

Form & Verdict

Off the mark (fifth attempt) in a 7f Catterick novice at the end of September; ran his best race on RPRs when seventh in a valuable conditions event at York (7f again) since; likely to be thereabouts but vulnerable under his penalty to anything with potential.

Eighth foal; half-brother to winners in Russia and Morocco; dam Italian 7.5f 2yo and 1m1f Listed winner (RPR 95), half-sister to UAE 9.7f Listed winner Montsarrat and Italian Listed-placed 7f-1m2f winner Ladiesandgentlemen; yard is 19% with 2yos this year and a market move for him would look significant
