Out of a useful sprinter; fair form when placed in two Polytrack maidens in early part of this year (1m/1m2f) and will play a leading role if somewhere near that level on today's turf debut.

Anonymous effort at Taunton latest took his record over 2m3f and beyond to 9P8, inclusive of one outing over tonight's C&D; mixed returns in a hood before now, so no guarantee which way he'll go for the visor.

Flat winner (1m2f, good to firm) who is 0-9 over hurdles but he was a rallying third on his reappearance here (2m, good to firm) two weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he looks worth another try at this trip; not ruled out with hood removed.

Tenth foal; closely related to a dual 1m3f Listed winner in Italy, half-sister to seven winners including 1m2f Listed winner Grey Britain and a smart middle-distance performer in Germany; dam French 6.5f/1m winner; nice pedigree, but it's always a bit worrying to spot headgear on a newcomer.

Form & Verdict
Rallied for very respectable fourth at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in March, her second start for Andrew Balding, but was sold for 5,500gns after poor run over 1m4f the following month; has a point to prove on stable/turf debut.

Well-beaten fourth of five here (1m2f, soft) on last month's handicap debut and has something to prove after that; however, he'd shaped previously as though this step up to 1m4f may suit and the added cheekpieces may be another positive; remains lightly raced and is not written off.

Nicely in command in closing stages of debut at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in September and not discredited when fifth in race not run to suit at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in January; leading contender if suited by this much longer trip on turf debut.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: John Butler

Won a 6f fillies' novice event at Chelmsford on her racecourse debut (trained by Andrew Balding); similar form in handicaps for new yard, over C&D the last twice, and leaves the impression there may still be a bigger effort in her; betting to guide.

Won debut; no serious impact in three handicaps for new yard, the latest over C&D when never-nearer fifth of 11 from out the back; edging down the weights and interesting if the betting speaks in her favour.

Form & Verdict
Began career with two quite encouraging runs at Ffos Las last summer (7.4f/1m2f) but not seen since failing to complete two juvenile hurdles in the autumn; cheekpieces removed after one use; wil probably be of greater interest once qualified for handicaps and with today's run behind him.
