Third foal; sister to winners Sea On Time (11.6f/1m4f; RPR 110) and Truthful (1m2f/11.6f; 100); dam unraced half-sister to 5f 2yo Listed winner Beau Ideal, out of 1m2f Group 3 winning half-sister to 1m4f Group 2 winner Plea Bargain; entered in the Ribbledale and Irish Oaks; highly likely that she's a smart prospect.

Beat one home in this race last year for different connections and has struggled for her new yard this term, latterly when sixth of eight in the Listed Upavon at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago; first-time hood worn there is retained; work to do.

2-4 for William Haggas, all last year, but ended on a low note for him and uncompetitive for new connections this season; while latest run was one of her better efforts in form terms, she was still beaten 12l in that 1m4f Listed race and needs a big career best to win this; hood goes on.

Fourth foal; sister to 1m2f/1m4f winner Warren Point (UAE Group 3; RPR 114) and a half-sister to winners Shining Jewel (1m; 102) and Gateway (7f/1m; 81); dam French 1m4f-15.5f winner (including Listed; 104), half-sister to 1m4f/1m6f Group 2 winners; jockey bookings would imply that Magic Dream is the yard's number one but dangerous to dismiss with her pedigree.

J: William Buick

T: Charlie Appleby

First two starts saw her come second over 1m2f and make all over 1m4f, both on the other Newmarket course; not so good on Chelmsford AW last time but this lightly raced, well-bred filly could still have more to offer.

Second of six on her debut at Newmarket last month (1m2f, good); put that experience to good use when making all over 1m4f back at Newmarket 19 days ago; open to further progress and she's a major player under the penalty.

Precious Jewel

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Charlie Appleby

Smart pedigree and made a promising start when second of six on her 1m2f course debut (good) 15 days ago, no match for an exciting prospect but pulling clear of the rest; likely to benefit from 1m4f and the one to beat with improvement on the cards.

Form & Verdict
500,000gns yearling; beaten three times already but she raced away from the impressive winner when second in a 1m maiden at the Craven meeting and her dam was placed in a Group race over this far; just about sets the standard and no doubt capable of better; entered in the Oaks and Ribblesdale.

Form & Verdict
There's nothing special about the form of her debut effort at Lingfield in December (7f AW; 15-2) but, based on pedigree and entries (Oaks/Ribblesdale), she should be capable of a whole lot better now raised in distance; stable beginning to roll in the winners.

Got the better of Pique at Wolverhampton (1m4f) on her handicap debut in June and she's 4lb better off with that rival today; no progress for cheekpieces the last twice and now gets blinkers; stamina won't be an issue but yet to tackle slower than good.

Matched the pick of her novice/maiden form when beaten 4l into second on handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f) last month; might need an even stiffer test than this but first-time headgear (cheekpieces) could liven her up.

Form & Verdict
Weak 7-1 chance at Newbury two weeks ago (1m2f, good to soft) but still went close, going down by a head after travelling strongly throughout; the winner - who was just ahead of Mallavelly in one start last year - could turn out useful and is reportedly bound for the Musidora; this filly has no Group entries but she's got the potential to reach that level.
