Form & Verdict
Cost 105,000gns as a 2yo but she was only tenth of 12 at Jebel Ali (6f, dirt) on her debut in November; travelled well to a point in that race and now drops to 5f for Archie Watson but she still needs to leave her initial form a long way behind.

105,000gns 2yo; tenth of 12 on her belated debut at Jebel Ali (6f, dirt) in November, but having been dropped in trip and with the tongue-tie removed she beat a couple of previous winners when successful at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) last month; major player despite her big weight for her triple-handed stable.

Form & Verdict
Well-held third on his Southwell debut (11-1) last May but he left that form well behind when justifying favouritism under a prominent ride at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in November; has a penalty after another break but he pulled 6l clear with the runner-up last time and is open to more progress on this drop in trip; major player.

Four sprint wins on the AW, most recently in January; failed to find much on yard debut at Wolverhampton recently and now has something to prove, again going without his regular tongue-tie.

4-29 AW; close third off this mark here (6f; 12-1) in June; has left Michael Keady for 3,000gns since last appearance; interesting to see how he responds to the change of scenery.

OR: —

Form & Verdict
Odds-on winner in the second of his two juvenile runs at Deauville (6f, good) in August 2021 but he's been on the sidelines since; left Godolphin for £3,000 last summer and now returns after a massive absence but he was useful as a 2yo and needs checking in the market; been gelded.

Unpenalised for last week's narrow win here when prominent throughout in the reapplied visor; had dropped to a good mark anyway so clear claims if he can hold his form, which is not always the case.

Hit and miss this season but he is on a handy mark and form such as his third at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) on penultimate start brings him right into it; visor back on after two runs in cheekpieces.

Well held on his Haydock debut (6f, good to firm) in July 2022 and same story over C&D on his recent comeback for new yard; has plenty to find on the figures and minor handicaps look the way forward after this.

Operating below last year's peak form but posted sound effort when third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last week and remains on same mark as for emphatic C&D success in November; no surprise if he features.

Went close over C&D (good to firm) last month and 1m seemed to stretch him back here since (all wins at 7f, including here); his last success came off this mark; likely to be on the premises under Rodriguez.

Returned from a break with good third at Ayr (7f, good to firm) in May and he went very close here (7f, good to firm) last Friday; he's done all of his winning at 7f but can be in the mix if the return to 1m isn't an issue.

Has a useful pedigree but he finished seventh in two AW runs (6f/7f) last year, with a best RPR of 51; returns after another break and he needs a transformation on this drop to 5f.

Runner-up in a C&D novice in October but that is his standout effort from five starts and he finished last of ten in a Class 6 handicap here last month; no appeal.
