Form & Verdict
Promise on last May's debut before winning a 6f fillies' maiden at Nottingham later that month; close third on her handicap debut last July (6f, good to soft; now 5lb lower); looked rusty on her seasonal return at Nottingham 24 days ago but it was still a creditable effort, beaten 3l at the finish; still relatively low mileage and could yet step forward.

Excellent second in this race (good to firm) last year, when conceding weight to a winner who went on to better things; back to form when outstaying Shallow at Yarmouth (7f, good; similar terms today) in April and has since run well in a Group 3; early stumble cost her at Musselburgh since but she shouldn't be far away back in a handicap.

Tough mare who won two handicaps around this time last year, scoring at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and following up at Goodwood (7f, good) 18 days later; registered plenty of other good efforts last term and was back on the scoresheet with narrow win at Yarmouth (7f, good) 11 days ago; something to find on the figures but she's the type to make her presence felt.

Stablemate of Temple Bruer; three wins this year, notably beating 25 rivals at Ascot last month (6f, good), and latest York defeat can be excused (raced prominently over 7f in a race in which the principals came from off the pace); the Ascot run offers hope he's still well treated; big player back down to 6f.

Having tumbled down the weights he returned to form at Chepstow (7f, good to firm; well backed) three weeks ago, reportedly appreciating the return to turf; still has plenty of handicapping scope up 3lb and his new trainer (same owner) has won with two of his last three runners; visor returns today having worn cheekpieces last time.

Looked a sprinter going places when seeing off Royal Ascot winner Pilgrim at York last September (6f, good); essentially bitterly disappointing this year, a refusal to settle compromising his finishing effort, and although he's dropped to a dangerous mark, there are risks attached.

Picked up for 4,000gns from the Hannon yard last autumn after breaking a blood-vessel for the second time in four runs; not much luck and maybe fresh is the time to catch him, going in a first-time hood, but the stiff 6f is a concern (most starts at 5f).
