Form & Verdict

On the up this year, winning 7f handicaps at Southwell either side of a good second (1m) at Chelmsford; penalty for the latest win does mean further improvement will be required but that is quite possible.

Form & Verdict

Well backed when running out the decisive winner of a 6f handicap here on Sunday, making all the running and finding plenty; contender on the face of it under a penalty but it looked a very weak race and this will demand further improvement.

Form & Verdict

Off the mark at the eighth attempt when easily seeing off nine rivals in a 1m Southwell nursery last month; perhaps unsuited by the step up in trip when a beaten favourite at Wolverhampton five weeks ago; a career best will be needed to defy this mark but it certainly isn't out of the question.

Two runs in classified events have seen her finish second, missing out by a nose at Southwell on Monday (7f) having looked sure to win when hitting the front inside the final furlong; has the ability to play a part but she flashed her tail and hung both ways at Southwell so perhaps isn't straightforward.
