Plenty of debut promise over 5f at this course just over a week ago; sure to be better for that experience and should appreciate this longer trip; looks set to give a good account.

Has improved steadily with just about each of five starts but pick of efforts still leaves her short of what is required to win this; may again find one or two too good.

April foal who went for 7,500euros in April; has several winners over a variety of distances in pedigree but yard not associated with debut juvenile winners and would want to see plenty of market support before getting involved.

Mixed signals this summer as to what she has to offer over 1m2f, last month's never-dangerous but improved Salisbury third (good) flanked by two very anonymous efforts at Beverley.

Went the wrong way last year; fared better last time, despite being said to have got unbalanced round Salisbury, and that gave something to build on down another 2lb.

Still unexposed after only five runs but fluffed the start and was detached throughout when upped to 1m2f for last month's seasonal debut; others look less risky.

Overcame greenness to make a winning debut at Leicester (5f, soft); type to do better but up in trip on different ground so has a bit to prove conceding weight all round.

J: Clifford Lee

T: Philip Kirby

Still off the same mark as when successful at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in December; three-time winner on turf and ran well to finish third of 11 on her return from a break at Catterick (5f, good) 15 days ago; not the most consistent, but her best form would make her a big player.

Below par on final few outings in the winter but she may have been ready for a break; posted a C&D win and a good 6f second here last summer and is well treated on that form; capable of having a say.

Turned things around with a win over C&D last month but she's finished a well-held sixth on Tapeta in both subsequent runs; has a bit to prove again and needs first-time cheekpieces to give her a lift.
