Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden who has not made an impact in her three handicaps and she missed the break when a well-held third at Sandown (1m, good to soft) last month; drops in grade off a sliding mark but she needs to raise her game.

Form & Verdict
Left his initial form well behind when runner-up at Salisbury (7f, heavy) in May but he was disappointing when upped to 1m in a Leicester maiden (good to soft) last month; in good hands and still early days but he needs to resume his progress on this handicap debut.

J: Sean Bowen

T: Olly Murphy

Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims.

Form & Verdict
Beat a clear second when landing a Goodwood maiden (1m, soft) in May and she's finished placed in both runs since, most recently when a staying-on second behind a handicap blot at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) last month; went a bit in snatches last time but she's still unexposed and is open to more progress back on turf; respected.

Narrowly won Goodwood maiden (1m, soft) in May and has made the frame in all three subsequent handicaps (1m-1m2f); rather disappointing when beaten favourite on latest occasion, though, and may not be entirely straightforward; tongue-tie added today.

Form & Verdict
Well held in three runs for the Gosdens but she's been progressive for her current yard and made it 2-4 in handicaps when scoring over C&D (good; cheekpieces added) two weeks ago; a 5lb rise for that comfortable success looks fair and this well-bred filly could continue on the upgrade; big player.

2-5 in handicaps for new stable this season, the latter win gained in first-time cheekpieces at Ffos Las (1m, good) last month; ought to have been suited by the good to soft ground when only fourth of five there three weeks ago, though, and now has a point to prove.

Took a while to get off the mark but he came good with 7f wins at Chelmsford (AW) and Brighton (good) in May; was only fourth of six back at Brighton last month but he ran into some trouble in that race and this new trip looks worth exploring; not ruled out.

Took him a while to get off the mark, but he eventually scored over 7f at Chelmsford (AW) and Brighton (good) in May; still 5lb higher than for the latest of those, but good to soft ground may not have suited at Ffos Las (1m) last time and possibilities if he can bounce back.
