Half-sister to three winners for her yard, notably 6f AW Group 3 scorer Mighty Gurkha; duly showed promise with her solid effort, behind three subsequent winners, over this trip at Windsor last June; open to progress this year and commands respect.

Won two of her first four starts but her progress has stalled since a Lingfield handicap win in April (6f, AW); others look safer now she returns to turf.

Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden for Andrew Balding, beaten favourite (over 1m2f) the last five times; bled from nose latest, subsequently sold for 19,000gns; now wears tongue-tie; has something to prove dropped sharply in distance on AW/stable debut but his best form sets the standard.

J: Kieran Shoemark

1m2f second last year on his only race at Sandown; second off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) on penultimate start was easily the best of his four runs on turf this season but his only win remains an AW maiden.

Looked to be suited by the step back up in trip when runner-up at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, despite not looking at home on the track; may be able to build on that performance today and he's a possible.

Never dangerous in 6f maiden at Doncaster in July 2022; gelded since; open to improvement but the market should offer the best guidance on return to action; interesting if the signals are positive.

Versatile trip-wise, having won over 6f on this track in September and later a 7f turf claimer the following month; another sound effort over the extended 1m here next time and although his 7f handicap form isn't particularly compelling, he's in good enough form to be considered.

Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden who has a consistent record over 6f and whose latest effort, in Class 6 handicap, took her Newcastle form figures to 2243; faces a tougher task at the weights in this field but earns points for being a solid type.
