Well bred and improved on her debut effort to finish a never-closer fourth at Windsor (6f, good), having not been in the best of positions early doors (no stalls used); will get further than this but looks the one to be with.

Has improved with each of her three runs and was beaten less than 2l at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) behind one who has since defied top weight in an Ascot nursery; looks on a fair mark now switched to a nursery herself and this daughter of Saxon Warrior will surely appreciate this stiffer stamina test; tempting.

150,000gns yearling; Doncaster (6.5f, good) didn't really go to plan with her squeezed out at the start but she was beaten 12l in the end and, at odds of 14-1, she was easy to back; best watched for now.

All three wins (from 12 starts) have been on the AW, on which she made a quiet reappearance back in late March; however, she was only pipped in this race 12 months ago (on good) and was again runner-up here after a break in September (soft); if rediscovering any of that form then she'd have a part to play.

Lady Wulfrun

Verdict

Unless one of the newcomers can deliver this looks a fine opportunity for LADY WULFRUN. She sets the standard on her fourth at Windsor last time and she should really have finished even closer. The others with experience aren’t wildly appealing, so Treat Of Treats could be the danger.[Alistair Jones]
