Close second at Redcar (6f, good to firm) on debut, then appeared to run creditably when facing a stiffer task in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (5f, good) where she finished 12th of 26; leading player back down in class and back up in distance.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: Grant Tuer

Acts on most ground; has won three handicaps at Musselburgh this season and gained her first Listed success when scoring at Chester (7f, good) in June, but she was below that level at Pontefract (1m) last month; has a better draw than she did when down the field in this contest last year but is now 11lb higher than when last seen in handicap company.

Could hardly be coming into this in better form, winning four of her last five starts including another Listed event at Chester (7f, good) ten days ago; still favoured on these terms despite her 3lb penalty and although the stiffer mile is one small question mark, she is a major player nonetheless.

T: Grant Tuer

This 5yo is in the form of her life at present, gaining a third Musselburgh handicap win of the season when easily seeing off seven rivals 37 days ago; had a wide stall as a an excuse for a slightly below-par effort over the extended 7f here prior to that and she went close here last season; on the shortlist.

Form & Verdict
Owner and trainer both have a good record in the 2yo department; made an encouraging debut at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm; started favourite) while shaping as if this extra yardage will suit; tongue-tie now applied; should progress and warrants respect.
