4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who won on good to soft and heavy in previous campaigns and hit top form again when pipped in a 1m4f York handicap on good ground on latest start; dropping back in trip poses something of a question but otherwise she looks set for a big run. |

No problem with the step up to 1m2f last time and in fact looked as though tonight's extra furlong would suit; remains open to improvement and goes on the shortlist under William Buick. |

9st 5lb |
Five-race maiden who is the least exposed contender; went close in Bath handicap (1m, good; wore hood/tongue-tie) six weeks ago, almost collaring a rival who received a well-judged ride from the front; respected, assuming the removal of headgear doesn't have negative effect. |

Was supported ahead of her debut in a Newbury maiden last summer but blew out; has done no better in two starts since and the market will be a useful guide now upped from 7f on handicap debut. |

There's potential in her pedigree and she's in good hands to progress, but she was soundly beaten on turf in July/September on her first two starts and has to take a sizeable step forward here. |

In good form this time last year when winning over C&D (soft) but her career has gone south since, including over hurdles this year; just 1lb higher than for the win but revival desperately needed. |

Down the field, beaten 17l, in 1m novice event at Kempton eight weeks ago having been easy to back; in excellent hands but may be one for handicaps later on; stable has a stronger chance with Brightly. |

Six-race maiden; has made the frame on all three runs since joining Harry Eustace, fourth of 14 at Southwell (1m3f) on latest; Kaiya Fraser claims a handy 5lb today; each-way claims. |
8/1 |

Five-race maiden who has shown some promise in two handicaps for this yard, most recently when a 3l third of 12 at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) last month; half-sister to a useful 11.4f/1m4f winner and she's in the mix at this new trip. |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

28th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won four in a row last year, the first two on Polytrack/Tapeta and the last in Listed company on turf; has rather regressed in three starts since returning in February and was around 9l behind Madame Ambassador in a Group 3 at Haydock (1m4f, good) 20 days ago; needs the hood to help her turn things around; stable also runs Shining Jewel. |

16th May 2024 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |

Unraced on softer than good; free-going sort who won four in a row in Britain, the last of which was a 1m2f Yarmouth Listed race in good style in September, with Infinite Cosmos beaten about 3l; 8-15 when second in Meydan Group 2 (1m1f) this February and it wasn't up with the Yarmouth form, but she could still prove a force at this level. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive last year, with Listed win at York's Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm), and after reappearing with a Listed second at Goodwood (1m4f, good) she went one better in the Group 3 Bronte Cup at York (1m6f, good); vulnerable if Estrange is at the top of her game but she's the stand-out danger. |
3/1 |

31st May 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |

Peak performance when impressive winner of Listed race at the York Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm) last August but she ran respectably in 14.5f Group 2 next time and when second in a 1m4f Listed race (ahead of Sueno and Allonsy) on reappearance; one of the top contenders on form. |

Truncated 2024 season featured wins over 1m2f/1m3f on turf/AW; may be sharper with Kempton reappearance under her belt but this distance looks inadequate. |

17th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Delivered on promise shown on AW when beating three rivals on handicap/turf debut at Doncaster (1m, soft; first-time cheekpieces) in April and ran at least as well when keeping-on third at Newmarket (1m, good) the following month; absent since a lesser effort in June but may still have potential. |

Has nearly 3l to find with Star Guest on their previous encounter (off level weights) and it was a weak-looking four-runner handicap in which she justified favouritism at Doncaster (1m, soft; first-time cheekpieces); some tail-swishing didn't go unnoticed and remains to be seen how she'll progress. |

25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Reached a smart level on the Flat for the Crisfords (effective at 1m with give underfoot); flopped on hurdling/stable debut for Nicky Henderson in July but had wind surgery afterwards and there was some encouragement to be gleaned from her fifth at Ascot (1m, good to soft) 19 days ago; that could be a run to build on and her sole start at 1m2f was inconclusive; not at all ruled out. |
10/1 |

5th 3 (7) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Reached a smart level on the Flat for the Crisfords (effective at 1m with give underfoot); bitterly disappointing in a novice hurdle on debut for Nicky Henderson but unwise to read too much into that and she's had wind surgery in the meantime. |
16/1 |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Very useful on the Flat for the Crisfords and a respectable sixth in a 1m Newmarket handicap in October; switched to a top jumps stable for hurdling career and could easily be too good for these if taking to it, providing the stays. |

Verdict
There are some very interesting newcomers on show in this maiden with Sapphire Seas, Free Lovin’, Twirling and Albany all making plenty of paper appeal. ALICE KNYVET left the impression she could take a huge step forward when fourth over 7f here on her debut though and she can put that experience to good use.[Paul Smith]
