Form & Verdict
Showed promise at shorter trips in qualifying runs (hooded on third start) but there was nothing in the tank when 8l behind the runner-up Allonsy on handicap debut at Windsor (about 1m3f, good to soft) where the hood was discarded; it's refitted today but turnaround clearly needed.

Consistent on varied ground last season, which she rounded off with a win in this race; no joy this term but still makes appeal on some of that turf form.

Consistent during her 3yo campaign, winning at Leicester (1m4f, good to soft) and Nottingham (1m6f, heavy) either side of four runner-up finishes; not beaten far on her last two starts (1m6f) and she's a solid contender back down in trip.

Form & Verdict
Progressed with racing on AW this year (blinkered on final two starts) but unable to sustain a promising-looking run when well-held third of five in her first handicap, at Windsor this month (about 1m3f, soft; no headgear, first-time cheekpieces today); should still have potential.

Fair form over about 1m4f at this track, Windsor and Leicester on the last three of her five starts, in small-field handicaps on last two occasions; wore blinkers on second and third starts, and had cheekpieces (retained) on latest; needs to find extra.

Form & Verdict
Minor form at 7f/1m as 2yo but bred to improve for middle distances and duly did so on handicap debut at Windsor (1m3f, good to soft) last month when slow to wake up but losing out only narrowly after prolonged tussle with an improved winner; up 3lb; good chance for in-form yard that won this in 2022.

Highly progressive form last term, culminating in a 1m6f Listed second on soft, and better still when she got on top close home in 1m4f Listed race at Pontefract (1m4f, good) this June; not disgraced facing a stiff task in Goodwood Group 2 four weeks ago but needs to resume improvement.

Last season's fine improvement culminated in her 1m6f Listed second at Ascot (soft); got on top close home in 1m4f Listed race at Pontefract (1m4f, good) on latest outing but she did not see this trip out as well as Term Of Endearment or Sueno when they clashed in York Group 3 the time before; others seem to have the edge.

Prominent racer; rattled off a four-timer in handicaps at around this trip last summer before good second of five in 1m6f Listed race at Ascot; had wind surgery prior to running right up to last year's best in Listed and Group 3 events last month; this is less competitive and she's greatly respected.

Form & Verdict
Speed on the dam's side of pedigree but she didn't look inconvenienced by the step up to 1m3f in her final maiden start, on Kempton AW in April; however, has more to prove with this greater test on turf debut.

Form & Verdict
Best effort from three AW starts at 1m4f and 1m3f came when finishing 2l behind Maritime Lady when they were third and fifth at Kempton in April; out of a stout stayer for the yard and is very likely to appreciate this tougher test now handicapping on turf.
