Form & Verdict
Yet to show any worthwhile form in her three runs to date, coming in seventh of nine in 6f maiden here last month; stepping up in trip and switching to low-grade handicaps could spark something extra for a yard who don't hang on to many with such lowly marks.

J: Millie Wonnacott

T: Harry Charlton

Unraced on softer than good; won four of her seven handicaps, the latest win in good style under Millie Wonnacott at Newbury in July; easily her worst display in those races, however, came off this 8lb higher mark at Windsor (again 1m2f on good to firm) on her only start since, when reportedly fractious in the preliminaries; needs to bounce back with another improved show.

Has a patchy profile but he improved his record to 2-12 with a last-gasp win over 7f here last time; this is a different test from a wide draw but he's only 2lb higher than last time and looks worth a try at this new trip; dangerous.
