Form & Verdict

J: Daniel Tudhope

Completed 6f Newmarket handicap hat-trick last summer (good to firm); kept on well for fifth of 14 in Listed race at Bath (5f, good) last month and close third in handicap there (5f, good) latest; has run well on heavy ground here; improvement needed but the return to 6f can suit; not ruled out.

Prominent racer; C&D winner who completed a Newmarket hat-trick last summer (6f, good to firm); it wasn't a vintage Listed event in which she kept on well for fifth here four weeks ago but her mark has been left unchanged and another good run should be forthcoming.

Form & Verdict
Gained back-to-back wins at Nottingham (5f, soft) and Newmarket (5f, good) last July and is back off the same mark as for the latter; well held in both starts since returning, but they were over 6f so worth a second look back at 5f.

Suited by a stiff track with both turf wins coming over 5f at Beverley, the latest by a head 17 days ago (good to firm); 2lb rise fair enough and has winning form on good to soft, but soft ground or worse would pose a question.

Pushed out under hands and heels to score at Musselburgh (5f, good; from 4lb lower) last month, but was no match for stablemate Marajito over C&D (good, 9-2) last week; remains in fine fettle though, and has a C&D win to her name, so she ought to be thereabouts.

Hard-pulling front-runner who can go to her right; her two handicap wins came off slightly lower marks but the drop back from 6f looks in her favour and she'd be a player if able to dictate with a rail on her off-side.
