Form & Verdict
160,000gns 2yo; sent off one of the favourites at Newbury (7f, good to soft) but dropped away tamely late on and that form hasn't worked out at all well; that said, given her market position, she might well be capable of a whole lot better.

Both wins on turf in 2024 when trained by Ralph Beckett; ran her best race for current yard when third of ten here (6f) on AW debut ten days ago; is at least as effective over 7f and should run well.

Nine-race maiden who started off for Paul Robson with two down-the-field finishes last month; however, he might have needed the first run (6f) and the ground was soft last time (nearly 1m); on a tempting mark now and not ruled out.

Seemed to respond well to first-time visor when third at Chelmsford (6f) in January but she's not come close to that form in three runs since; her blindfold was removed late at Lingfield last month but she's now 1-27 and others are preferred.
