Just one win from her 21 starts but that came in this race last year (good to soft) and she's been in good heart this spring, finishing second at Lingfield (7.6f, good) last Tuesday; solid claims.

Sole win from 20 starts came at Leicester (7f, good to soft) last May for Pam Sly; faded late having set a strong pace over 1m a Yarmouth last month and ran a solid race when third there over 6f three weeks ago; contender back up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Belardo gelding is third foal of a 1m winner (RPR 87), herself a half-sister to 5f 2yo Listed winner Sonny Red and 6f/7f AW winner Dutch Golden Age; Colin Keane rides Bergamasco so perhaps best watched on debut.

Belardo gelding is third foal of a 1m winner, but he failed to get involved on debut at the Curragh (6f, good) last August; likely to need the run after an absence but worth noting the yard is in great form at present.

Has done well on AW for current yard, completing a remarkable eight-timer along the way; failed to transfer the form back to turf last time, taking record in this sphere to 0-10; bit to prove off same mark.

A revelation on AW for new yard since last November, posting an eight-timer; close second of six off this mark at Wolverhampton last month; he's 0-9 on turf but this is his first run on grass for his current trainer and he could be involved.
